Mommy, look at your legs!!

Hi everyone! Thanks for all your well wishes :) I thought that I was on the mend, until I discovered that I had a rash this morning. My feet, legs, arms and hands are all red today. It turns out that I have scarlet fever. Rare in adults, but treatable with antibiotics. My hubby is off to the pharmacy now.

Glad that I have "So You Think You Can Dance" to help me feel better. I thought that this was a beautifully danced and choreographed routine this week.




I miss reading all your posts. I hope to be back on track by Monday.
Enjoy your weekend!!

Been out of the loop. . .hate to hear you are sick. Take care of yourself.

Scarlet fever!!!??? I knew you must be really sick. Maybe this is the universe's way of forcing you to take a rest. You are taking a rest aren't you?? I hope you feel back to your self again soon. Being sick sucks. Being sick with one baby sucks even more. I'll bet being sick with four kids under 12 is unbearable. Please take care my friend!

Scarlet fever???? Wow. I thought that was some kind of "old time" disease they had gotten rid of. I'm glad they can treat it though. Here's wishing the drugs kick in and get rid of it right away!!! And I hope everyone leaves you alone so you can rest and recover! : )

Hope you're feeling better--or at least on the mend! I've got a little bit of a virus thing going on myself. I don't like to be sick at this time of year!

Wow, I thought Scarlett Fever was something from the past, feel better!

Randi said...

So You Think You Can Dance is the cure-all for everything! I loved that dance as well. There was something very Allison (from a few years ago) about it. Do you remember her?

Take care, rest well...
