Just returned home from another trip back east at Bethesda MD for treatment.Every thing is status quo. Monday we were at the clinic for 12 hours, made for a very long day. Tuesday was a little less hectic so we went back to the hotel for a respite. Then we went had a lovely dinner and relaxed conversation at my friends home. Back to the clinic on Wednesday for my chemo treatment. we were free for the first time by noon----now what to do with ourselves......go back to the hotel and nap, then out to dinner in down town Bethesda. the hotel offers a free shuttle to downtown Bethesda after 5 pm so we caught that. walked around town for a bit then went to the same Italian restaurant where I went last month for Amber's birthday.
Coming home was different. after all passengers are boarded onto the plane the captain comes on and say " um folks we have a little delay here as the weather radar doesn't seem to be working properly----it'll be about 20 min and they'll decide what to do about it----20 min later same spiel with the added note that a "back up plane" would be there about 8:30 PM it is now 6:00 PM. 20 min later he says we have clearance for take off---claps from the passengers. After being delayed for a hour we were actually only about 30 min later landing at PDX.
Sure was nice to sleep in my own bed last night.
