Not enough time to sit around doing nothing

I woke up at 4am and my fever was back up to 100.1. WTF is going on? Every other day I have a fever. This is getting ridiculous. I called out of playgroup and I'm going to see the nurse practitioner at 9:50 to see if I have a sinus infection and if I can get magic drugs. If they say it's just a virus and I just have to "wait it out," I'm going to scream. Do they not realize that this is an insanely busy week?

I have gifts to deliver to all of my families. I'm supposed to volunteer tonight and have a potential volunteer sitting in to observe me (which is important, not something that should be skipped), I have a bazillion home visits to families I won't see for a couple of weeks due to the holidays, I'm supposed to meet up with Tim, I need cat food and an oil change, we have to get to RI on Thursday night so we can go to the casiNO on Friday, and then exchange gifts with my aunt Friday night. ARGH!

I hope I feel at least a little better this afternoon so I can keep my afternoon home visits. Trying to squeeze them in on Wednesday and Thursday (on top of everything else) would be a total nightmare.

Damn you, holiday germs! Damn your black heart!!

I hope you feel better and they give you good drugs!

They gave me some antibiotics even though the NP wasn't sure it wasn't viral. She said that most signs pointed to viral, but she was a little unsure about my on-and-off fevers for nearly a week. So she gave me a wee bit of antibiotics to hopefully push me over the hump.

But now Jennifer is sick. :(
