But just barely - I feel sorta hung over right now!
I arrived home this morning around 3:15 - my connecting flight out of Las Vegas was delayed a half hour AND it was overbooked. The "gate-keeper" asked if two people would give up their seats in exchange for a rescheduled flight next day (today), a $300 voucher, and the cost of your ticket to be used at any time...hmmmmm. Almost kinda tempting, but not doable for me!
When I left on my cruise, my brother in law had been in hospital with multiple symptoms for about 2 weeks; my sister didn't want to say the "C" word but it was understood he would more than likely have to go through chemo.
I was planning to finish this quilt for him, with fleece on the back to use during the chemo treatments because fleece feels really good. Well, I called my sister soon as we docked in Seattle to check on his condition; sadly, he passed away on Friday.
Soooo.... I have to get myself rested up and prepare for a trip to New Jersey, probably leaving on Tuesday. So you probably won't hear from me for awhile, see you when I get back again. Have a great Sunday everyone, sew forth and sew on til later.
So sorry for your loss, family comes first so take your time. I am sure your sister will need you at this time.

ReplyDeleteWhat a sad way to end that beautiful Alaska cruise. It sounds like your trip homemade from the west coast wasn't very fun--uggh. Janet and I walked in my front door at noon on Saturday and she was home in Spokane a few hours later. I do love your flying geese quilt--I might have to try some of those as leaders & Enders.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun meeting you and Renea--maybe we will see you again on another cruise.....a friend has asked me to join her for QuiltMaker's Block Party Cruise to Alaska in June.....hhhmmmmmmm
My sincerest sympathies to you and your family. Travel safely.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your BIL. Praying for your family.
