Packing for camping today!  They switched my dialysis time tomorrow by my request to 5:40am so we can make the 4-6 hour drive to the camp site.  Yesterday afternoon as I was leaving I wanted to find out the chair number.  Oops, they said.  The chair they scheduled me in is being used.  Sorry, we are full.  Well. I am getting a ride and it is leaving by 10 so am I supposed to go without?  They said they would call me.  Just before 5:00  I called to see what was up.  The woman who messed up had left for the day without calling me.  I spoke to the head nurse who knew nothing about it.  She will see what she can do.

I went there at noon today because I just knew... I walked in the door and the person who screwed up looked at me and said oops, I forgot, hee hee hee. I didn't think it was so funny.  I stood there as she called some patients and found someone who would switch with me.  I got a chair for 5:20am.  :yahoo;  They seem to screw things like this up no matter how much time I tell them in advance I am going to have some special need.  When I tell them they always tell me no problem.  When it comes time, there is always a problem.  Go figure.   :banghead;

Gotta go to dialysis in 3 hours.  Insomnia sucks.  Good thing I am riding to the campsite in a HUGE RV. Going to catch some zzz's on the way for sure.

Camping was awesome.  Some of the things my tribe prepared for us. Fresh trout, fresh crawfish, lobster tails,chateaubriand, scallops.  We went fishing and rode quads.  My son and I had a wonderful time!
