Can I do this week over again?

I don't know where I got it from but I caught the creeping crud this week. Any number of sources, probably, since the majority of my family was sick also. By Wednesday I felt miserable and didn't go to work Thursday or Friday. I'm starting to feel a little better today, but I am still coughing and feeling very fatigued. Whatever it is, it's not something that was covered in this years flu shot, which I was so careful to have last October. Oh well. I have been able to get some stitching done on my M Designs "D". It is finally starting to look like something recognizable, and I really like the way it is turning out.

We purchased our airline tickets for our trip to Maui today. We are going for a week to Kahana to stay in our time share in April. (It will be John, Lizzie and I). Here is a picture of our building...RIGHT ON THE BEACH!!! Can't get any closer or we would be IN the water!!! It guess it would be an understatement to say that we are getting very excited to go! There were places we didn't get to see and things we didn't get to do last time we were there, so we will find lots to keep us busy. Although the drive was beautiful we will NOT be taking the Road to Hana this time. Once was enough. (if you are unfamiliar with the Road to Hana, think one lane 160 degree switchbacks no guardrails type of road...you'll get the idea). We are planning on driving to the top of the Haleakala volcano though!!!! LOL!

Friday was Lizzie's 12th birthday. Happy Birthday dear youngest daughter. (Lizzie is in the middle of three girls). Being so sick I didn't have the energy to do much, so it was pretty low key, but she has had a couple friends over all weekend and completely decorated the house. I think they had fun. John took them all to go see A Night in the Museum at the theatre yesterday, and we have spread out the presents and fun over the whole weekend. We bought her a small TV for her bedroom...it will be interesting to see how much use it really gets!!!
