Calm Amongst the Chaos

So Ollie got sick Monday afternoon, by Tuesday he was really sick so I took him to the ped with one swipe we found out he had strep. While he napped that day I started to pack, I never pack that early before a trip so I must have known something was up. I prayed that if I were going to get strep let it be Wed so I’m over it by Friday and boy did God answer that prayer. I was knocked on my butt! High fever, body aches and the worse sore throat ever! I had to take Andi and
Ollie with me to Urgent Care and I was sure enough strep positive as well. Got antibiotics and was miserable that day. It was awful! At 3pm I went to bed. Oliver was napping and Lily was with her care giver and Andrew picked up Andi from pre k. I went to bed at 3pm and didn’t get out of bed until 7am. Seriously! Thank God for Andrew and Sharon (L’s care giver) I couldn’t have done that with out them. I’m still not so great, but fever is gone. My throat is still on fire, but I’m much more functional today so I know I’ll be ok to travel tomorrow. One of Andi’s classmates’s mom offered to take her to the last day of school party so I am just resting at home while Oliver gets into everything. Oh well its safe here for him to do so. I can’t count the times I’ve had strep, overwhelming amount of times and it is awful every.single.time. I read that it is most common in kids and teens. So I guess with strep and acne I might as well pretend I’m 15. Anyway, if anyone wants to send a prayer this way. I still have so much to do and no energy to do anything. And I’m starving. I haven’t eaten since Tuesday night so that might be why I have no energy, but I can’t eat because my throat is on fire! Ugh ok io hate when other people complain so I will stop. I just wanted to check in before I head out!
