Trip To Tacoma - All Day

 This morning, I enjoyed being able to sleep in. Had some trouble with my thumb last night. So, it was nice to finally get some sleep.

We left around 11:30am to head to Tacoma. We decided to get lunch at the Spaghetti Factory. We arrived around 1:30 pm. It was the first time in a long time that we were there. Must be about 10 months at least. It wasn't crowded, as I thought it would be. We sat and enjoyed our lunch. We had plenty of time because my appointment wasn't till about 4:30 pm. I had the lunch size and Patrick had the full size. He ended up bringing some home. 

We could see Mt. Rainier the whole time we traveled north. It was awesome to see!

Heading how was just as pretty! Before the sun went down. 

After we were done, we headed to Tacoma Kaiser. There we were about 40 minutes early. The good news was, I was in early. We talked with the doctor about my thumb. I had an option of a shot or surgery. If I got the shot, I would have surgery the next time I came in. Since he told me he is 3 months into surgeries, and if I got the shot, I would have to wait 3 months before surgery can be done. So, I told him to do the shot, and we will schedule for surgery in 4 months. He agreed with that. OMG!!! That shot hurt so bad!! I was in pain, but not as much pain as I was in when I had the breast cancer shots. Still! I can take pain, but crap, that was real pain! It finally got numb as we were leaving. It's a little (I mean little) numb now. Last time it took a day to get rid of the numbness! Oh, well. 

By the time we drove through traffic on the way home - leaving around 4:45 pm and arriving at 6:30 pm, I was beat! AND I didn't do anything but be a passenger in the car! Weird!

So, as much as I would love to say it, I wasn't even close to Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
