@Sunflower123, Bali would seem so wonderful! I at least did see parts of Oahu, in Hawaii, when my brother lived there. Also a couple islands in Thailand. It's strange, apparently those Thai islands have become major tourist destinations since I was there. Gosh, it's been almost 30 years. Stuff sure changes in that period of time!

@HALLIEBETH87, I hope your cold is short-lived. @Fuzzybear, I went to bed early last night, too. Sometimes it's a good reset. I did wake up a few times during the night because the bed makes my back hurt. I really dislike the bed setup. I'm stuck by the wall, so have to do what seems a somersault to get out of it. I'm not in such good shape anymore to do that with ease.

Today my husband and I are taking it easy at home, after a very busy few days, two of which in the city. Hubby is at the moment asleep in the recliner, holding his cell phone upwards in his hand. Not sure how he manages that! I'm not a napper, so am typing away here. I've got to confess that the planning for our new house has been a bit exciting. I also received a very positive email from my sister. I kinda believe my brother won't be doing as well next week, as my sister said he did yesterday. He starts his chemo next week. What does concern me is that Sis says our brother yells at her in anger sometimes. He's always been prone to that, and I'm sure his health situation exacerbates it, but still Sis does NOT deserve to be yelled at. She said that she will soon go to a therapist, but I wonder why our brother doesn't. Too proud? Well, it's time to check that pride at the door.
