On Monday I was finally feeling better and over the respiratory virus, and then Thade came home from school sick. He stayed home Monday and Tuesday, and by Tuesday evening I had it too. He said that he was feeling up to going back to school on Wednesday, and that’s when my fever started up again. Thursday was a blur, and Friday James said it was time to go to Urgent Care.

My pulse was high, my bp was high, and I had a fever, and really bad stomach issues. After the check-up, and visit with the Nurse Practitioner she informed me that I had a sinus infection, with a severe inner-ear infection. Oh yeah, and severe allergies too. I happily took my steroid shot, and grumbly another round of antibiotics were needed, and two more allergy meds have been added also.

James dropped me back home, and then took the kids out with him to pick up all of the new meds. It took over two hours for the prescription to be filled, and I felt so bad that he had to wait that long with the kiddos. They were awesome though, and the rx helped immensely.

So today, I’m up and going, and back at it. I’ve been trying to take it easy, but I’ve been sleeping so much this week it is really hard to do so. I’ve been cleaning house, catching up on laundry, cooking, baking, crocheting,  and (yes mom) I did sneak a nap in there.

I’m also getting a plan together before the next bug hits. I’ve cleared a shelf for flu supplies. I’ve stocked the freezer with homemade veggie soups. I’ve just got to get to the store sometime next week and stock up.

I really hope that this is the last of this junk…
