Ugh, I've been sick almost all week. I rarely get sick. I've never had this kind of sick before. Shortness of breath, paaain in my chest when I cough, persistent sweats/shakes, everything tastes like metal. Apparantly not uncommon, but it's all new to me. Doc says it's going around, and the cough will last for quite a while. Emily got it right before our trip and now there's barely a quiet moment in our coughy, sneezy, snotty house. Except for now. Tommy's asleep. Em's at school. Steve's out. It's just me, my 738 trip pictures, my laundry, and my dirty kitchen floor. If only we would have brought the thingy to Maui that gets the photos out of the camera and into the computer, then I would'nt have to back-track like this. But on the other hand, it was a much needed break from all things that characterize my homelife, and now I get to have a little something, other than home hygenics, and, oh yeah, caring for 2 kids, to preoccupy me as I get a little healthier. We'll see if I can sum up our version of Maui 05-06 in about a week (or maybe two, because I'm starting to feel queasy again and have yet to get to that floor). More later!
