The only person who lost 10 pounds on Thanksgiving

...is this girl.  Let the Thanksgiving recap commence:  Long story shot, I got a wicked bad sore throat on Tuesday night and stayed home from work Wednesday, but we drove to Hilton Head at night, anyway.  Thursday morning I was so bad that Mike had to take me to urgent care where my doctor gave me the award for the worst-looking sore throat of the month - yay! Two throat cultures later, he had no idea what was in the back of my throat but decided to treat me anyway, since it was Thanksgiving and I was in obvious pain.  I got a shot there and 3 prescriptions.  Over the next 4 days, I took something like 65 pills plus a bunch of Vicodin cough syrup.  In the midst of all that, it hurt so much to swallow that I didn't even get to enjoy my favorite holiday.  Oh well, at least we have plenty of leftovers, and Mike did an awesome job with our contributions to Thanksgiving :)

Yeah, I basically I jinxed myself every way possible by writing my Stuff (and th)ings post early on Monday.  Luckily, I felt well enough on Saturday to go out to the Caramel Apple festival and even better Sunday to play my favorite golf course in the world, Harbour Town.
So yeah, that was my Thanksgiving; and now it's Christmas season!! How did that happen?!

Dang, that sucks!! BTW, I went to the driving range and I'm a little annoyed with myself that I didn't share a snapchat or a picture with you during the event... I thought you might be proud! :) although, I'll be honest... I was terrible!

A few years in a row as a kid, I had terrible tonsilitis, so I feel your pain. But as an adult it's even less "fun" I am glad you're better now!

Oh man, I'm sorry you were so sick on Thanksgiving! And with something that made you incapable of eating, no less...DUMB! I hope your Christmas is a lot better!

Oh no, that stinks. Glad you made it to the Caramel Apple festival though because that is the best flavor combo! Hope you are on the mend!

Wow you were so sick - hope you're better now! You need a re-do of Thanksgiving dinner I think :)

The worst indeed! I hope you're better this week! I remember my bout with some sort of strange strep like it was yesterday. I cried every time I swallowed.

Sorry to hear you were sick on Thanksgiving but I guess the good news is that you didn't indulge in carb-loading like the rest of us! Hope you feel better soon!

Glad you're feeling better! Holidays are the worst time to be sick.
