You know how, when you're relatively sure it's going to be a bad winter for illness (because with kids in school, it's always - but *always* a bad winter for illness), you're always on your toes, walking on eggshells, waiting for it to happen? Analyzing every cough, every sniffle, every listless eye? And then, when nothing happens, you give a deep sigh of relief before mentally high fiving the universe and shrieking "We made it! WE MADE IT! HALLELUJAHS, HALLELUJAHS!"?
Yeah. Not so much.
I have a drainage sore throat and a double ear infection, all of which started right after Megan's party with friends for her birthday. All of which continued through a weekend of birthday festivities featuring two birthday parties for friends (including one at Chuck E Cheese!). All of which, despite a trip to the doctor, a day of rest and a cycle of meds, is still hanging around.
M has strep. I is under the weather. J is congested and feels yucky.
That high five was a tad premature, methinks.
Way to actually post!!
