Was I dreaming....?

*tip toe, tip toe (Jaydin)
*tap, tap, tap (Jaydin)
*pst, mommy (Jaydin)
*roll over, 1 eye peeks at the clock 3:44am (Me)
*what's the matter honey? (Me)
*I spilled my water in my bed and my throat hurts really bad (Jaydin)
*Don't worry, it's just water it will dry. Get a drink and try to go back to sleep (Me)
*Beep, Beep, Beep (alarm) 6:00am
*Rob gets up and heads to work
*tip toe, tip toe (Jaydin)
*pst, mommy...my throat hurts really bad and I have a headache (Jaydin)
*okay, crawl in with me and let me feel your forhead (Me)
*wow! your burning....let's take your temp (Me)

Sure enough 101.5....

So that's how the day started and that's when I realized I wasn't dreaming in the middle of the night. We had to call the b-ball coach and let him know we wouldn't be at the game. At 8am we took Jeremey to school to catch the bus for his Jazz festival and then we headed to a very crowded Urgent Care Center where we waited for about 2 hours to get in and get the strep test. It came back negative and we heard the words that make you gasp with exasperation....It must be Viral...has to run it's course. Next stop Drugtown for apple juice, tylenol, triaminic, soup & popcicles...ah yes the cure all menu. So it's a lay low, snuggle on the couch, back rubbing, fluid pushing, movie day for us here at the Burley's.
