Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to all out there in personal finance land!  God bless you all!

As for my wife and I, we got to spend out Christmas sick with strep.  My wife is a pre-school teacher and strep has been going around school.  She had a cold part of last week, then it looks like it changed to strep around Friday.  Sunday is when it kicked it up a notch, and it came down hard on me all of a sudden.  This morning, it occurred to us that it might not be a cold and could be strep, so we went into urgent care in the morning, got diagnosed for strep, and was able to get some penicillin before the pharmacy closed.  We didn't want to wait to see our normal doctor's until Wednesday, so figured urgent care was our best bet.  Anyway, at least now we should be getting better, and will make a good store one day... "remember that year we were sick with strep on Christmas Day...?"

Bless all of you!
