Strep throat bites.

I was looking forward to enjoying a nice quiet restful Christmas vacation this year. Everything was carefully put into order so that we could take the entire week between Christmas eve and New years weekend off.

Then somehow I got strep throat- the streptococcus bacteria.

How does a grown man get strep throat? I thought that was something kids get?

And why was it just a few days of misery as a kid and now it's approaching a week of agony?????

Now there are two times you won't find me running my mouth to talk.
1) while cleaning a dirty poop dumpster (don't ask how I know that)
2) with strep throat.

I wish this would heal up quicker. I can't stand the thought of running around with anything in my throat that ends in "coccus"

The combination of reading this line and looking at your avitar has got me rolling on the floor.... :rotflmao1: Sorry you don't feel well Tony. Really I do. LOL
 
Sorry to hear about that Tony, hope you get better soon!
 
Thanks guys. I just got my dope yesterday so I'm still sick as a dog. We completed one job this morning and postponed the last one I have for the year. I don't want to bring in a guy for 2 hrs work.

Lesson learned, we need to keep antibiotics on hand at all times. Since this started Christmas Eve I couldn't get a prescription till Monday morning.
 
Boiled onion & warm brandy does the trick....or gets your mind off it.

I tried gargling hydrogen peroxide. Don't do it in front of the kids. The foaming at the mouth scares them.
