Bad things come in 3s

Of course I think that kind of silly superstition is bunk, but I just hit my three. I felt a nasty sore throat coming on as I drove home from work on Tuesday night. Wednesday the kids had no school so I took the opportunity to stay home - I felt pretty bad. I debated about seeing the doctor and finally decided to go on Thursday just because I know that strep is going around (and I don't want to be miserable over the weekend and wish that I had started on meds). At the appt, the Nurse Practitioner said that they were seeing a lot of virus like this, but that it probably wasn't strep. We were both very surprised when the test came back positive today. So now I'm taking Amoxycillin for 7 days. So that's my third, after losing my wallet and burning my arm. Hopefully I'm done with bad luck for awhile, though I have noticed that I've gotten sick once a month since November. I hope that's done too.
