What an exciting time of life for me! :)
I've been sick for three weeks now, going on four and my doctor finally decided on Thursday that I have pneumonia.

PNEUMONIA?!
What the heck! This all started out with a supposed infection which I was treated for.

I didn't get better.  I actually got WORSE.  No voice, sore throat, fever...you get the idea!

Anyway, I am hoping to start feeling better....

Why?  because, my family is going back east for Thanksgiving, and I really want to be better for the trip!  

Here's to better health this week!  



Is it me, or does it seem like everyone is sick?!
