October 6, 2009

Caleb and I both stayed home today. He's been very quiet compared to his normal self. He's had a fever off and on. I took him to the doctor. He tested negative for strep. They see no signs of infection and don't think it's the flu. It's just a virus, I guess. They did not give him any meds because of this.

I also went to the doctor. I have been diagnosed with a sinus infection, which I was pretty sure is what he would say. I got these ginormous horse pill anti-biotics. They are huge. They are bigger than my vitamins which I have a hard time swallowing. he also told me to get Mucinix in the red box. Shhhhh, don't tell my nose, but that seems to be helping. I'm actually breathing out of both nostrils right now. It's also dried out my mouth really bad. But maybe I'll be able to sleep tonight.

I've been fighting a fever, too. We are both staying home again tomorrow. I've already let my school know. My principal asked the sub who was in my room today to come back tomorrow. I will go back to work on Thursday. Hopefully, Caleb will go back to school then, too. He's been kind of bummed that he's missed football practice so far this week. But, I think he liked having mommy to himself today. I kind of liked it, too.
