Man, what a horrible weekend!

I was really looking forward to this long Memorial Day weekend because Troy doesn't have to work. Well, things have taken a turn for me.

We all got sick! I really don't know what I have but on Thursday, I started getting a sore throat and then achy chills. I was pretty miserable. I am still feeling that way today but I feel alright if I take my IBprofin. If I get off of it, I feel totally miserable again. I'm not sure what I'm going to do this week as far as working out.

Benjamin hasn't been feeling well either and we took him to an on-call doctor yesterday. Benjamin has his first ear infection. The doctor prescribed Amoxicilon and I'm really tempted to take some from Ben.

Then yesterday, Troy started feeling sick! Man, everyone is getting sick except Ryan. I really hope he doesn't catch what we have! He needs to go to school this week because it's the last week of school. I am really really thankful for Troy's parents because they took Ryan for the whole entire day while we stayed at home and slept! What a blessing that was!

I sure do hope that tomorrow is a turning point for all of us. We need to get over whatever it is we have and get on with life.

Usually they only give enough antibiotic for 1 full course. I would hate for you to split it up between the 2 and both only get half the treatment and end up having the infection not fully treated and then come back even stronger and this time resistent to amoxicillin...but of course I am a bit more paranoid about that kind of thing!

Oh, I know Tammy! I would never take Ben's medicine away from him! I was really just kidding that I would do that!

Actually, that comment was from Mark. He was pretty sure you were joking but couldn't take the chance. Ha Ha.
