FIRST CASE OF STREP THROAT

G-son came early again today and wasn't as lazy as yesterday so we didn't get to stay in bed long this morning after the alarm went off.
After I fixed him waffles and chocolate milk for breakfast I went outside to do the chores.
I came in ,ate my breakfast of cereal and fruit and hot green tea and then as we started outside for our morning walk. He stopped and whined that he didn't feel good and his stomach hurt. I left him inside in front of the TV and walked around the circular drive around the house,shed, garden and barn for about 30 minutes, peeking in at g-son on every trip around.
I noticed all the different colors of morning glories as I walked.
This light blue is my favorite.


Just a few of these pinks.


A lot of the dark purple ones.


Only this one vine of whites.

Back inside I iced 6 last caramel cakes and cleaned all my floors.
G-son complained all morning that he didn't feel good but after I talked with his mom we decided he was probably just tired from the early mornings and a play date yesterday evening.
It was shortly after lunch when I decided it wasn't just tiredness. As he napped all wrapped up in his favorite blanket in a warm living room as I had turned our air conditioning off earlier today because the temperature is around 80 today I noticed chill bumps on his arm.
I got the thermometer and stuck it under his arm as he slept,after just a short time as he woke and pushed it away it measured 102.5 and he felt very hot to touch.
I got him unwrapped and tried to get him to drink something cold but he was too sick.All he wanted to do was doze off and on. I asked him what hurt and he said his belly and his neck, as he pointed at the front of his throat.
I called mom and she came and took him to the doctor who said he has his first case of Strep Throat. Bless his heart, at least we caught it quick and now he will be well to start school next Monday.

This evening after supper as I watched the news I saw this poor fellow at the feeder on the front porch.I have no idea what kind of bird this is !!! A true bad feather day !!!!


This male cardinal was a lot farther along in his molting.
D-in-love called and g-son is doing much better after several doses of fever meds and a dose of antibiotic. He had eaten a crust of a piece of pizza at least.
I did weekly paperwork and payed bills while daughter baked tonight. Her new closing date on her house is next Wednesday,we are crossing our fingers nothing goes wrong this time.
After she finished I iced 2 coconut cakes and labeled all my cakes.
Thanking God for watching over g-son and praying for a speedy recovery.
Good Night and God Bless.
