J.R. has been out of school all week long with strep throat and a sinus infection, and then Justo Man came down with it Thursday. Michael took him to the ped on Friday and yep, him too! They are both on antibiotics and Tylenol. J.R. weighed in at 194 and Justo Man weighed in at 90 pounds.

I had a breakdown talking to the pharmacist on Friday over a bottle of adult Tylenol and if my almost 12 yr old (his birthday is Tuesday) should be taking the big boy stuff. She said yes, and I wasn’t ready to discard the chewable ones just yet. My hands were shaking and I fumbled the change she handed me dropping it on the ground. All along fighting back the tears and not wanting to accept them getting older. I had a good cry in my bathroom late at night when everyone was sound asleep. Where has the time gone?

I’ve been anti bacterialing (my new word) the house and scrubbing all the bathrooms down to a sparkling shine. Lysoling (another new word) the door knobs and light switches. I woke up with a little scratchy throat, but I am determined not to get sick! LOL!

On this day..
