D.C. trip - part 1

Well, technically, we are in Baltimore, but that is not the point.

So, my sister and I flew in Monday and had a surprisingly uneventful flight/s.
Yes, I was sick, and felt pretty terrible and in a lot of pain, but I was able to do it!

Getting through security and to our gate, a VERY different story!
They had no idea what to do with me and all my medical liquids.
Talk about utter chaos!!

But the entire day I just felt carried on the wings of prayers and so much love!
I know a LOT of people were praying and thinking about me and I really felt them.

Now today, well yesterday by now but Tuesday, I expected to complete crash and but that kind of extreme fatigue/exhaustion where I can hardly move a single muscle, as this is what usually happens.

BUT, no. I keep having these big adrenaline rushes.
Like when you hear some really bad news and the blood drains out of all your limbs and you feel cold and half hyper.
Yeah, that.

I'm exhausted but still "going" (if you can consider tiny little trips to the bathroom and sitting half way up in bed typing out a post "going"!).
I just keep having these rushes. One after the other.

I'm having a really hard time keeping anything down.
I've tried to eat 2 or 3 times today and end loosing it each time.
But what is unusual about that? Nothing. Very normal for me.

I just wanted to sort of document how this trip is going and I know a lot of people who are excited to hear all about it so I am going to try to give you at least a little update each day.
Not promising, as the crash is likely to come eventually, but I'll try.

I'm getting another rush right now, it is 1:55am.
Hmmm....crazy body.

Sitting here realizing that I have to be ready to leave in 4 hours to leave for my appt, I'm starting to get nervous.
This is actually becoming a reality.
Wow.

OH! I had visitors tonight. My cousin and his wife and kids came to see us here at the hotel. It was tough, with the noise and stimulation and everything, but I managed. YAY!
**Thank you Doug and Dinah! Also, the pie was good, its my favorite!!  ;)**

Its nice to be able to see family while I'm on the east coast!

Ok, the blood still hasn't returned to my feet and aparently not my brain either, I am totally fogging up.
And my mom is snoring like crazy. Annoying.

  3. Hey, I thought the security went quite smoothly. Took a bit of time that's for sure, but it really could have been way way worse.

    Missing you!!
