This was our first break in our new 6 weeks on – 1 week off schedule. Why didn’t I do this a long time ago?
On Monday we had Lindsey’s yearly checkup followed by a trip to the “chicken store” to stock our freezer. We can home and worked on our first lesson for a See the Light product review (coming in another 2 weeks). This was followed by Lindsey’s piano lesson. The rest of the day was laundry and house work.
Tuesday the girls and I took on the arduous task of exchanging summer wardrobes for winter ones. I have never seen such a pile of clothes in all my life! Lindsey grows a lot slower than Olivia, so she’s on the same wardrobe she’s been in the last few years. We worked on the second lesson on See the Light.
Wednesday I spent the day organizing our 6 week unit (Jamestown to Plymouth). We completed our third lesson on See the Light, only one more to go! I dropped the girls off at Awana and went to Wal-mart to go grocery shopping. This is where the week took a drastic turn for the worse.
Apparently, someone who had used the cart before me had strep. This is the only answer I can come up with to explain why on Thursday I woke up, too sick to get out of bed and unable to swallow. By Friday I crawled to the doctor to confirm that yes, it was strep and a pretty bad case of it. So I’m on 1750mg of antibiotics a day for 10 days. Since the husband and kids didn’t have any symptoms, and we’d all been to all the same places, with the exception of Wal-mart, the doctor agrees that was probably where I picked it up.
I do have photos of this week, but I’m still not feeling well and am heading back to bed. I may update with photos later.
Linking up with the Weekly Wrap Up.
