I think I am just about done rescheduling the trip Dani and I had planned.
We were all set to just move it to “same time next year” but the fine print on the airline tickets turned out to be the long pole. Yes they are flexible – meaning that they can be rebooked – once. And the rebooking has to be at least 24 hours prior to our original departure. Ok – that is next week, I can handle that. Next tho – the window for reuse t is not 12 months from planned flight – it is 12 months from purchase.
And no one in their right minds pays a premium for cruising in December without a very good reason. Not to mention the challenge of getting time off work. Or sacrificing the extra pay that goes along with pulling shifts on 25 Dec.
In stead, I dropped a note to my lovely travel agent, which I hope she finds first thing in the morning and looks at the new requested dates prior to dealign with NCL. Since she is on Central time, this may work.
Meanwhile, I am spending about an hour each day working on organizing the craft room which leaves me stitching as a reward.
Today was. a day for bright colors –
This is the first room in this year’s Folk Art House by Ship’s Manor. I will have to get a daylight picture as it is bright. The fabric is 16 ct and the floss is a combination of Ship’s Manor and DMC. I am going to be doing the frame as I go since the room segment is a reasonable number (~1200) but the frame is not (almost 8k)
And then there is the Spangler full coverage.
which is starting to look more like something and less like random stitches on gridded fabric.
And, if I get sunshine tomorrow, I will update the Flamingo gallery.
