Very tempting. We are booked on Enchantment out of Tampa for the ABC islands in April of 2025- but my son has let us know that he’s probably being deployed from Christmas of 2024 to the summer. We are the alternate parents for his German Shepherd. Thor is a very nice dog, but we will probably move the cruise, because getting an alternate sitter for 2 weeks for a 100 lb German Shepherd is likely not going to happen. Oh well. It will give me time to work on his instinct to chase squirrels and jackrabbits. He is pretty good about that, but not perfect! By the way, that cruise is now insanely expensive. If it wasn’t for the destination, I wouldn’t have.

Transatlantic (and Transpacific) - What Do You Like?

My husband and I both enjoy them, but for different reasons. My husband enjoys not having a schedule- sleeping in, reading, going to movies in the afternoon etc. On the other hand, I like making myself a somewhat artificial schedule- exercise, trivia, lectures and shows. -
Here is my granddaughter’s quilt- actually it’s just the top, there’s still some work to do. I thought I would do a crazy quilt, but it turns out that is too much chaos for me, so I had to border it! I note that Gus tried to get in the photo. My dining room/ quilt room has French doors, so he’s not usually in there!

This is my “barn” cat. He reinvented himself at about 8 weeks, and is now a wonderful house cat. He was underweight, had worms and an eye infection. After some vet care, he responded nicely! It wasn’t my barn; it belonged to an aunt of my daughter’s former boyfriend. @Keksie is doing a wonderful thing.

I had a thyroidectomy on Friday. Sutures come out today, and everything is fine- except for a headache that won’t go away. Caffeine, pseudoephedrine and ibuprofen are managing it, but it’s annoying. I don’t normally have headaches, so I am thinking about how much I have to be grateful for. If you typically don’t notice any pain, you don’t really think about it, until you do! We are having an unprecedented warm spell- today it’s going to be 6 degrees C. And tonight we are going to the National Ballet of Ukraine, which should be lovely! Meanwhile, I am making a quilt for my not yet born granddaughter! I’m doing a crazy quilt, with scraps from the baby’s brother’s quilt, her mother’s quilt, and her uncles’. I have never done a crazy quilt before, but it’s coming together nicely. It’s going to be colourful!

We had Mohan as our cabin attendant for the Panama Canal - he is great! You must be near 1550.
