Thank you all so much for the well wishes, and suggestions.

We decided to go up to the Emergency Room instead of waiting until tomorrow to see the regular dr. They were so jam packed, they didn't have time to see me today. So, anyway, the Dr. gave me a choice of penicillin pills or a penicillin shot. So I opted for the shot, and the good news is that by tomorrow morning I will be contagious-free!!! I called Mom tonight, and we decided that we would wait to make any Thanksgiving decisions until tomorrow to see how I feel. The dr. thinks I will be as right as rain.

Meanwhile I have a *VERY* sore bum and arm (IV fluids). And I'm plumb exhausted and headed for B-E-D.

Oh, and more patient babies....they want to play soo badly, and I'm just not up to it tonight.
