The Plague

… Better known as Strep Throat.  Ive had it since last week Tuesday.  Let me tell you, as  kid I never really got it.  I think once when I was really young.  So maybe it was my “turn” to get all the strep throat I missed out on as a kid.  I had it BAD.  I had no energy, headaches, high fever, chills, sweats, nausea, coughing, the works.  At first I thought I had the flu because I just felt so terrible.  But nope, the strep kicked my ass.  Im still not 100% yet and its been 6 days.  And to top it all off I gave it to Baby Girl and she has been sick starting Thursday night.

I missed work Wednesday through Friday due to being sick, on top of the four days I missed for meetings, vacation, and training.  I am literally swamped right now, and I have no desire to do a thing.  I feel terrible because I was supposed to start last week as the new co-staff secretary of Blue Star Families, but all I actually managed to do was sit in on a conference call and try not to throw up.  Needless to say I haven’t been much help yet. 

Im hoping that I can get back into a groove quickly and get things done.  I feel a little like- when it rains it pours.  Oh, I’d like to feel better – really better, and be on my way to shortening my to do list.  Wish me luck.
