Strep Throat!??!


So early in the week I wasn't feeling well.

Had some cold-like symptoms.

I really just thought it was a virus.

As this week has worn on I started feeling worse. My throat was getting more and more sore. Swallowing feels like I have glass in my throat. I found myself considering just spitting and wearing one of Makily's bibs all day to avoid swallowing. (just kidding, okay not really)


I finally broke down today and went to the walk in clinic.

I have strep throat!

GREAT!

First of all what are the chances that I have strep throat and Makily does not? How the heck is that possible? She is snotty but has been for a while now and is not running a fever so I am confused. Allen will obviously be taking care of her all weekend while I become a hand washing freak.

Secondly can you believe the irony that WE HAVE WAITED over a year to get our foster license and I HAVE STREP THROAT the same week our license is approved?!

Do we have great timing and impeccable luck or what!?

Anyway I am on antibiotics and will be contagious for the next 48 hours.

Lovely.

I'm off to eat some flavor ice.

Will be back after lots of Nyquil and antibiotics.
