This journey’s end

Since I had packed last night and put my suitcase out for the crew to haul into the terminal on arrival , I had little to do this morning other than get dressed, find coffee, and wajt for transportation. Unlike most of the other cruises I have taken on large ships, t never did find more than the random other stitcher or knitter. But I did get to speak with some lovely people, two of whom I found at the coffee shop and joined for breakfast.

For such a relatively short distance, it too well over an hour for the bus to travel to the airport.  United was the last drop off point as well. Not checking a bag this time, I managed to standby and catch an earlier flight. BART to home, George picked me up.

And there is this velcro cat who is more than glad to see me…..

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!
