As if having a c-section on Thursday (that's 4 days from now) isn't enough, please add strep throat to my list of medical accomplishments this week. I just got back from the hospital where I was hooked up to the monitor to make sure Finwe is okay, had my throat swabbed, and felt three contractions.
Finwe is okay, doing great actually. I'm miserable as I don't like to swallow and my lymph nodes are quite painful. I have to take penicillin for 10 days (1 pill every 6 hours), and try to be a good mommy while I feel like crud. Phill has taken care of the girls all day today. He even tried to start an art project with them. It is half finished, so I may have some work to do later.
Don't call asking if I'm okay. I'm not; the baby is. He's the one that matters right now. I'll make it through my third bout of strep throat in my lifetime. Those aren't bad odds.

Are you ok ?
***OUCH***STOP HITTING ME****
No seriously. Hang in there. It is the bum's luck that you have strep right now. Hugs. NO KISSES. I will send you happy painless thoughts...yummy books, soft beds with lots of cushions and pillows, a gentle breeze, the sounds of nature, and oh yes...a cool drink with an umbrella/straw !
