Sick again

This family can't seem to stay healthy this year. It seems like once one person gets well, someone else gets sick. Mia was sent home Friday with a fever, and she ended up with an outer ear infection and sore throat and cold, and $97 worth of meds! Saturday I woke up with a fever, and was either freezing or sweating all day. Yesterday I thought I'd be better, but no luck there. Today I planned to go to work no matter what, because next week is the math TAKS test and I need to be with my kids. But I woke up with another fever and an extremely sore throat, so I skipped work and went to the doctor. Glad I did, because I have strep and mono. I really hope the steroids and meds kick in quickly so I can get to work to help the kids cram for their math test. The good news is that Mia seems to have responded well to her meds and is doing much better.

Mono?!? Get better! All of you! You must get better so you can buy a house with a red door.

Mono???!!! Yikes! I hope you're all feeling better by now. Take it easy, not that you'll have any energy anyhow.
