Chelleology

Tomorrow is the big day.  I’m not nervous most of the tests they are running I’ve had before.  I just hate packing!  I’m always afraid of forgetting something important that I can’t pick up on the road.  Then I always over pack because I never know what I’m going to need.

I am looking forward to being on my own for a couple days (except the one day Scott will be with me).  There are some shops I can go to although I’m sure I’ll spend most of my time at Barnes and Nobles… maybe even at the hotel pool.  I’m also bringing some DVDs to watch on my laptop and plenty of books.

If there’s one thing I hope to accomplish with this trip is to find out why I’m so tired all the time. We already know that I’m very anemic and we are hoping to find out why.  I fear that they’ll say that I am for sure a celiac.  But if I am, maybe I can finally start feeling normal again.  That’s really all I want.  It’s hard enough to feel normal with Crohn’s Disease (Could someone find my dignity, please?).  Then of course, Celiac Disease makes it even more abundantly clear that I’m not normal.  I just want to be able to do things without feeling exhausted afterwards. 

I’m hoping to get on the road around 4.  I’m working the booth at the festival until noon.  So, I’ll have enough time to get some food for my trip and get home to rest for a bit before loading up the car for the trip up.  I’ll get there in time to check in and get a late dinner.

Wish me luck!
