You all know we love visiting Len and Jaye in Ocean Reef over Easter. This year was no exception. A few days before we departed I was feeling a little weird. My hips, ankles, and wrist hurt SO bad. I even went so far as to look up symptoms of Fibromyalgia. Friday we headed out around 9am. On the way down I just felt horrible. Then I started having chills. I slept most of the way down. We stopped in Florida City and picked up a thermometer....103. Not good.
I was sick the WHOLE time. I mean really, really sick. I did everything in my power to rally and make the best of the situation. I slept most of the week. I would put on my bathing suit and go to the beach with they family and sleep. I never was able to get my fever below 100 for long. I made a trip to the Dr. and finally got a z pac on Friday after a week. I would have "moments" where I would try to participate in the fun but the vacation basically sucked for me. There were a few times with the fever where I would have to ask Sandy, "Did that happen or did I dream it?" I developed a really weird cough toward the end of the week which turned out to be Whooping Cough. Yes folks, I'm 44 years old and had Whooping Cough. It has been a long hard 6 weeks but I am finally WELL.
Me and Anne Marinic
Sissy and Le
Le and Blair doing the "Glee" jump. We had a really funny night trying to get a good photo of Le, Daniel, and Blair doing the Glee jump at the same time. 78 photos later we gave up.
Some how I ended up with two of these photos.
Blair and Turtle Kitty
Le coming after me after I pushed him in the pool.
Well, that started it. We all ended up fully clothed in the pool.
Coming out of the pool. Look how sick I look in the eyes!
Playing cards!
Daniel thinking REALLY hard.
Daniel having a miserable time....
Easter Egg hunt.
How weird is this. Blair and I went to Talbot's on different days and came out with the same shirt and shorts. She looks better.
Me checking my email with a fever.
This was a window of approx. 2 hours where I felt almost normal. We went out to eat with the Marinics and had fresh caught fish caught by the Marinic's earlier in the day. YUM!
Waiting for fish!
This is a sad picture. This was me with 102 fever on the beach...dead to the world.
There are not many pictures. And a lot of them were taken by Blair. From what I hear everyone else had a great time.
