Not much news
I don't know if it's the delicious high-test coffee I've had the past two mornings, or the B-12 shot. I've been getting along with much less sleep than usual. You will remember I had been mixing decaf coffee beans with the regular ones, and didn't even notice a difference in taste, but I guess having less caffeine has an effect. Maybe it has nothing at all to do with either the coffee or the shot. My niece Stephanie is hosting the monthly family dinner tomorrow and since I haven't been to her apartment yet I will ride over with my sister. Ara and Hannah were going over early to help her, and I bet they will polish off a bottle of wine or two while helping! Maybe not.I'm really in a quandary now about the gall bladder surgery. I did a google search to see what were the effects of stones in the bile duct without treatment, and it's pretty dire. I can't seem to rush anything along though, so I may end up seeing my son's gastrointestinal specialist when I'm in NY. (I don't seem to have any symptoms or pain lately.)Thanks for the comments on finding camp sites on the road, and especially at T.R. National Park. I'm gathering info on National Forests along my route, and might try the disbursed camping route although I don't want to get too isolated with just a tent and no guard dog. I've never worried before or felt unsafe, and I don't want to start now. Maybe I can post some pictures in tomorrow's post. Have a good weekend everyone.

I Want Spring Back!

Packing
Packing up for camping, not "packing" packing. I spent a couple of frantic hours searching for my tent poles and finally found them. Anything that will be ok sitting in a warm car until tomorrow is crossed off the numerous lists I've made...

Worse Than I Thought
I saw a specialist this morning who told me I have gallstones and need surgery. Unfortunately, some stones have migrated into the bile duct, and before he can operate, I have to have them "cleaned out" via an endoscopy. My worst nightmare...
