As much as I want to attend the Sage-ing International Conference in Seattle, my heart does feel way lighter, putting the funds toward staying on-site at the wildly closer National Village Gathering in October. Will take the train & stay snugged in Crystal City (Arlington, VA).
It was an easy decision to make, after last week's experience. As is often the case, to simplify is to add costs, but the expense will be a good value.
Scots have a bad rep for being stingy. A misconception of what it is to be frugal. A Scot spends good money on things of true value & timeless style. A true Scot would definitely stay onsite in order to get the most bang out of her conference buck.
It helps that I feel there are times the universe lets me know the right path to take - or not. Hadn't realized that some tiny part of my brain was a teeny tensed about making my limited funds stretch as far as I'd like.
