One of those German/English smash togethers than drive my husband absolutely up the wall. Another one is “downgeloaded” which I find easier than the proper term for “downloading.”

But anyway – NCL has cancelled the cruise that Dani and I were going to take starting 22 January. This, by the way, is a rebook from April 2020 that we had planned on the NCL Jewel from Hawaii to Vancouver. Since we can’t manage something like that this time, it was going to be around 4 of the Hawaiian Islands. So now I have to deal with 1) rebooking 2) airfares & 3) hotel. At least this time I didn’t prepay the hotel and have flexible airfares.

I just really don’t want to deal right now…

Otherwise, it was another day in the needle trenches. The way my vaccine support person & I figure it – our station took care of about 1/3 of the total. Not too shabby for five total stations. Not being completely foolish – except for one, we avoided kids today. Adults are much quicker… They mostly don’t fight, cry, hit, or scream. 

And yes, Bill – there are lawn flamingos..

About Holly

fiber person - knitter, spinner, weaver who spent 33 years being a military officer to fund the above. And home. And family. Sewing and quilting projects are also in the stash. After living again in Heidelberg after retiring (finally) from the U.S. Army May 2011, we moved to the US ~ Dec 2015. Something about being over 65 and access to health care. It also might have had to do with finding a buyer for our house. Allegedly this will provide me a home base in the same country as our four adult children, all of whom I adore, so that I can drive them totally insane. Considerations of time to knit down the stash…(right, and if you believe that…) and spin and .... There is now actually enough time to do a bit of consulting, editing. Even more amazing - we have only one household again. As long as everyone understands that I still, 40 years into our marriage, don't do kitchens or bathrooms. For that matter, not being a golden retriever, I don't do slippers or newspapers either. I don’t miss either the military or full-time clinical practice. Limiting my public health/travel med/consulting and lecturing to “when I feel like it” has let me happily spend my pension cruising, stash enhancing (oops), arguing with the DH about where we are going to travel next and book buying. Life is good!
