Day One of Round One

Well, here we go again....restarting the process of getting rid of these darn spots!
I woke up at 6 a.m. and waited for the alarm to go off in 6 minutes. So can you believe I am writing this at 6:20?
It's going to be a beautiful day with record temps and lots of sun so maybe God is sending me lots of Sonshine to start my chemo. I can only hope! I know the warm dry weather is killing a lot of business(nobody wants boots or tires) but they are talking about a little snow tomorrow and really cold for a few days. I know this is MN and we will pay for this spring weather we are having.
I was going to have this written last night before I went to bed and just upload it to the blog this morning, but I was really busy getting tickets for our trip. A couple of weeks ago the cheapest way to Myrtle Beach was $401 and had 2 stops. Then we looked last week thinking prices would go down after the Holidays, but to our surprise that same ticket was going to cost $425. So we waited to see if they finally would go down, and low and behold the same ticket was now $502. Well we weren't going to pay that, so Bonnie and I talked and since we had only 5 going, maybe we could fly into Charleston and rent a car and drive the 94 miles to Myrtle Beach. So I went in and changed my destination to Charleston, and would you believe we can fly there with only 1 stop for $375 each? Wow what a deal. We also got a full size car for only $225. So with gas, it probably will only cost about $50 each, and we'll have a car to go anywhere we want during the week. Like grocery shopping so we can make some of our meals. So it's looking good all around!
This morning LaVonne Burrington will pick me up at 7:45 and go with me to HHH in Robinsdale to have my chemo. I have my deck of cards and a few magazines etc. to keep up busy, and I'm taking my new Nook to see how it works with different WiFi systems. I want to get good at using it. They are having a class of Barnes and Noble on Thursday night, so hopefully I'll make that too!
My friend Lottie who I've asked you to pray for, now needs prayers for her husband who is having surgery today. Sonya is having a biopsy today too, so lots of prayers needed. Love and prayers, m
