Procrastinating on a sea day

It is the last day of this cruise and I am very busy not accomplishing much of anything. I can’t pack early because my laundry isn’t back yet. Even if it was, it is doubtful that I would be packing before tomorrow morning, but that isn’t want we are discussing. What is on the table is my lack of getting anything useful done in the last couple of days – or today at least.

It doesn’t mean that I am still lounging around in pj’s at 1600 in the afternoon. It is more that I have been falling asleep while reading, while listening to an audiobook and knitting. So I must be either bored or tired. It also could be due to a caffeine deficit.

In any case, nothing much happened today – other than making a small bit of progress on my knitting.

 

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!
