How We Felt? Really Want to Know?

Today "we" felt tired. And worn out. Today we were called at home by our doctor for the second time this week. After being in to see them twice last week. Today they were checking to see if the strep infection (a result of issues that have been going on since the birth of child #3) that has spread through our entire body (did you know strep isn't just reserved for throats?) has gone away yet. And the answer is a resounding no. Chills and fever started again during the night last night. Luckily we have been on antibiotics long enough to not be contagious. Unluckily, they're not working to kick this crap. Unluckily all the children have been sick (with strep, ear infections, impetigo, and pink eye to name a few), and the husband (with a miserable cold), and now the dad who is thinking he probably has pneumonia (and he is the expert since he gets it pretty much annually). Luckily child #1 is feeling better and has been back to school. Luckily child #2 took a good nap today. Luckily child #3 is a pro at taking his medicine and seems to be doing not too bad. Unluckily we are living in squalor because we are too tired to clean our abode. Luckily we have a brother and sister-in-law coming tomorrow to help out. Unluckily we feel a little embarrassed at the current state of our house and don't want to get the family sick. Unluckily we feel like a total flake on many fronts, not accomplishing much of what we desire to do. Luckily we managed to blog and explain our absence. And if we're really lucky, we'll be feeling better pronto and back to blogging and cleaning and all other life pursuits in a timely manner.
