Day 51

Yesterday was one of those days where all the little things went wrong but the big things turned out ok.

We made it to Vegas....but the trip was aggravating.

What went right:
I didn't have any problem at security getting my meds. on the plane.
We didn't miss our connecting flight.
We landed in Vegas and had little trouble finding our shuttle to South point resort.


What went wrong:
We sat on the tar mat in Atlanta for half an hour in front of our gate waiting to pull up. Then we had rush to the next gate on the other side of the airport to catch our connecting flight. (me rush....no I can not walk fast! I do not have the energy anymore!)

Our 4 hour flight included a family sitting behind us with very young children who were very excited to be going to "Sin City"!

Why would you take your young children to Vegas for a vacation? Not to mention that the Father was pretty drunk by the time we landed.

"Yep kiddies...over there is the bar and the slot machines....and oh don't mind that lady walking down the strip looking for johns, it's just her job." I mean come on! The Father kept saying "Sin City! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" and the kids had a blast repeating that as we landed.

To add to the family of future degenerates we had the company of a woman who traveled with 2 full grown cats crammed in a small carrier designed for one cat.

For an entire 4 hour flight the cats meowed and screeched behind us.

The flight had those individual screens attached to the back of the chair in front of you....and yep mine didn't work!

I ordered a salad for lunch ....and nope they ran out of them before they got to me!

Got to the resort with my meds still cold enough in my little Roche cooler and we had no fridge in the room.

Not to mention that we reserved a smoking room and got a non smoking room!

It's the little things that are pissing me off and if there is a day that for the first time since starting tx that I now know that I'm taking Ribavirin, yesterday was the day! I usually do pretty good with patience.....but yesterday I was fit to be tied! That is until we went down to the casino after dropping our bags off and I put a 20 in a slot machine and won a $120 back!

Ok.....I feel better! LOL....Yesterday is gone and I won money! lol

Enough bitching now. We're in Vegas!

Woke up this morning at 5am....it's 8am at home. I'm feeling yesterdays little adventure pretty good. Sore all over. I'll grab Tylenol and take care of the aches and pains.

We meet the limo downstairs at 7:30 to head out to the Grand Canyon. I'm like a little girl on Christmas morning!

I've been pretty much all over this country but never to the Grand Canyon. It's the one place that I swore I would go one day. I just never did it. I can't wait!

On the home front, my daughter is on the front page of the paper. I found out via phone call from her father at 4:30 this morning. I went online and downloaded it but Jimmy's laptop won't let me post it here. I'll have to post it when I get home.

It's a picture of Crystal with the High School Band just after they played for Hillary Clinton. Hillary must be talking about the kids because she's pointing at them in the picture.

My Daughter is 18 and can vote....That Greedy Manipulative little Bitch had better get away from my Daughter!

I will however save the picture because I do like the idea that my Daughter has had her picture taken with the "Former First Lady".

Well that's it for now. The sun will be up soon and I'm going for a shower. ..maybe that'll help the aches and pains.

I'm still feeling somewhat ducky....it's just a sore and tired ducky is all.

Have a Great Day!
:)

Former First Lady is all she'll ever be, along with the Junior senator from NY, but that's NY's problem! Have a great time! ;}
(Never heard of anyone complain about getting a non-smoking room!)
