Yet Another Trip To Olympia!

This morning, I was getting things ready for our trip. Then I played some games on my tablet. 

We left by 1 pm because we needed to get gas and be in Olympia around 2 pm. Our appointment was till 3 pm but Patrick needed to get up there early for his blood tests. We got gas, and just as we entered Tumwater/Olympia area, it was stop and go. There was an accident that happened at 12:14 pm and traffic was touch and go. We didn't see any accident - thinking it was cleared up. Took us about 20 minutes to go 5 miles. 

We arrived in time, Patrick took his test, and we sat for about 25 minutes. He had his appointment, and I had mine with our oncologists. My appointment went really well. He did pretty good, but he's off chemo for a week and taking antibiotics. That's a good thing since we are leaving tomorrow and it should help him out. 

I asked to go to Dairy Queen after. We stopped and got a 4-piece chicken strip and split it. He seemed to be hungry! Then we had the peanut butter parfait which, I swear he was hungry!! He ate more than I did and was sucking it down like no tomorrow. I couldn't believe how fast he was eating it. I wasn't ready to start eating it, so he took a couple more bites before I even go any! Guess he didn't want to wait!

Came home and started getting ready for the trip. We filled the suitcase. I know I'm missing something. Funny part, I put my clothes in 1/3 of the suitcase. When I went back to add a couple things, it was FULL! Patrick added his stuff and there was hardly any room in there. Makes me think, I pack less than he does. OR I'm the better packer. I was shocked at how fast he filled that suitcase. I told him to get the backpack so I could put my stuff in that. No doubt he will have it full of his stuff as well. OMG! 

I packed my beading, so I wasn't able to be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
