**Yuck, Horrible, Aweful**


This is how I have felt since Saturday night. Actually, I felt worse then that but I won't use the words to describe how I really feel, [not very nice!]
I have the flu, swollen lymph nodes and Strep throat! The worse strep throat I have ever had in my life. I haven't been able to eat or drink hardly anything for 3 days. I went to the doctor yesterday and they gave me a penicillin shot and said I would feel a million times better by this afternoon, well, nothing yet. I'll give it a couple more hours and then I'm going back! 
Sorry that I haven't been able to get back to you all as much as I had planned, but this hit me hard. Then last night my little love started throwing up and couldn't stop so hubby had to take him to the doctor. The doctor said it could have been something he ate and so far he hasn't thrown-up anymore since he came home last night.Thank God. Don't you hate it when your little ones are sick and you can't take their pain away?!! It breaks my heart!
On a happier note, I just saw that I actually hit 200 followers! This is huge for me, I am just so thankful and amazed!
As soon as I'm better I will definitely have a 200 follower giveaway!
Thanks so much to all of my followers, the new ones and the ones who have been here since the beginning, I appreciate and look forward every day to reading your lovely comments! You all are so special to me!
Well, I'll talk to you all soon. 
Sincerely,
~Melinda

  2. Sweetie, oh I feel for ya. What a horrible thing to happen when you are in the middle of so much going on. It was probably stress and your body just couldn't fight it off. The throat is the worst! Nothing to do to sooth it. Then add the stress of your baby sick too, oh you poor thing.
    Wish I lived closer to come help out.
    Sending positive thoughts that the meds will kick in.
    Now go rest and take lots of liquids and don't worry about not getting back to anyone. I think we all understand completely.
    Get well soon!

  6. Well Melinda I'm going to have to agree with the rest of the ladies, it sounds like the craziness of the move caught up to you :(
    But just remember that the Lord doesn't give us more than we can handle (even though you're body doesn't agree with that, I'm sure).
    Even though it's hard, I always TRY to look at the positive side like, "this could have happened in the midst of moving" right? But He kept you strong! It sounds like your son is doing better and you NEED to focus on YOU and get A LOT of REST! If you need ANYTHING AT ALL remember I'm close by and at your service =o)

    Lifting you up in prayer, Irma.
