I completed 38 stitched pieces in 2024; 3 afghans; and 5 temari. Not nearly the amount of things I had planned. It's been a busy year with a full time job and lots of travel. For all the month of December I worked on Victorian Garden Mandala, hoping to get it done. I didn't. All the cross stitch is done, but the backstitching and beading has a bit to go. I hope to finish it this first quarter.
2025 is shaping up to be hectic. I was accepted into the Certificate and Diploma program by RSN. Great for me, they're now doing it on Zoom. Bad for me - I signed up for the Europe time zone before learning I was going to be in the US for ten weeks during the first module. Guess who's getting up in the middle of the night for class for several sessions?
I will be in the US for training March through mid-May if things don't go sideways with the change of administration. I've been accepted into the Limited Non-Career Appointment program. It gives me the ability to do a bit more things in my job and comes with a raise.
After I get back, Andreas and I go on home leave. I return to Warsaw. Andreas continue to Kyiv, where he will spend a year living in a hotel. He does get to come home some, so I will see him and we will talk every day. But still. So much going on.

It's amazing where fate takes us. My grandparents are from Borkowo. Where will you stay in the U.S.? I live in South Carolina practicing my limited Polish and selling my chainmaille and beaded jewelry.
Well, my first trip to the US was cancelled because training fell through. On our trip in the summer, we will be in DC, Virginia, Tennessee, and Texas. My Polish sucks, but I take lessons to try to improve it. Good luck with your business! My husband used to do chainmaille, but has gone on to do other things.
