Who gets sick in August?

My friend emailed me this week and asked me that question because she said she got sick. Well I had an answer for her - JACKSON then myself.

It started out last week - On Tuesday, Jack was crabby and warm but he went to daycare anyway. Wednesday he spiked a fever of 103 so Trevor stayed home with him. Thursday the same thing so Trevor took him in to the dr. He had fluid in his ears (ear infection) a sore throat and all that fun stuff. They put him on an antibiotic and sent him home. He was sick with that stupid fever until Sunday morning.

That's when I woke up sick. I woke up, took a shower and literally went back to bed until 5pm. I felt warm, achy and had a sore throat and my eye was all swollen and matted. I went in to the dr yesterday and it turns out I have pink eye and strep throat. Fun stuff.

I haven't worked much for the last two days and I feel terrible about it because we are leaving for Michigan this weekend so I will be missing all next week of work. I do have to say that the place I work for is wonderful and they are all so kind and more concerned about you when you are sick than mad at you for missing work - that is something I am not used to.

Trevor went to the cities for a few days and he was starting to get a sore throat so hopefully he won't get as sick as Jackson and I. Let's all cross our fingers that Olivia doesn't get it.
