**sigh**

The past couple of days have been nuts.

I should back-track...right before we left for Regina (I'm not sure if I mentioned this before or not) I took Drew to the doctor, as he had what looked like a cold-sore on his mouth.  We weren't really concerned about it, until James' mom came over and thought it could be something else, and that we should get it checked out.

The doctor told me she was 99% sure that it was a cold sore, but she swabbed it just to be sure.  I was told she would give us a call by saturday at the latest to tell us if he needed to go on medication or not.  Saturday came and went, and we did not hear anything.  I didn't think anymore of it.

Tuesday came, and I had my wisdom teeth removal, and then Wednesday came.  James and I had planned on having a nice, relaxing day.  Drew would be at school, James could take Hunter out and I could recover.

Wrong.

The doctor called us in a panic, telling us that she had to see Drew right away.  The tests had came back and he had a strep infection on his mouth.  He couldn't be at school (couldn't go back until Monday).  Crap.

James and Hunter went and picked him up from school, took him straight to the doctors where he was given antibiotics that he has to take for the next week.  Did I mention he wasn't allowed at school until monday??

Sigh...

The rain didn't make things very easy either.  Poor James was kept on his toes trying to keep the boys occupied while I tried to stay off my feet (the pain-killers they gave me really knocked me out!).

Snickers kept me company while I recovered.

Giant welt on the left side of my face...it's crazy bruised now.  The silly part is, it's the right side of my face that hurts the most.

The boys keeping me company.

James helped the boys make this rocket-ship.


The boys ended up at my parents for some of the time, played here some of the time, they headed to a park yesterday......James was supposed to go back to work on Thursday, but with me being such a mess, he took Thursday and Friday as family days.  He had to go back today, so my parents came and picked the boys and I up, took us to their house and then drove us back this evening.

I'm feeling a lot better now.  Yesterday was probably the worst day.  I'm not 100% and am still on pain-killers, hoping to stop taking most of them tomorrow.
