I talked to my brother in Thailand this week and he had an idea brewing. He had to look into a few things and would get back to me asap. TODAY he told me it was a GO !!
I AM GOING TO VISIT HIM THIS SUMMER !!!!
He will pay for my plane ticket, all I have to do is enjoy myself lol. And take some spending money It is a cheap country (for us Westerners it is anyway) so don't need much YAY. Two yrs ago I took just a small amount and even had some left over. SO I can can start putting a few euro's away every time I have some left over YIPPEE IF all goes the way we have thought it over I will leave June 5 and be back home June 28.
THREE WEEKS WITH MY BROTHER
Can ya tell I am one happy girl lol When we put the earphone down I was grinning from ear to ear and did a happy dance lol

How wonderful, My neighbor is in Thailand now. It's her 2ad visit there and I think she may be comming home to sell her home and move over there for good. It is a beautiful place. She left in the middle of Nov. and isn't returning until April 15th. If she does move there I will visit her at least once. How wonderful for you and your brother. I bet you keep that smile on your face for a long long time. ((((Hugs))) for both you and your brother.
Hope all your days are Sunnydays. dianebcarterhotmailcom.blogspot.com |

Thanks Diane, yes that grin is still there lol. My brother has lived there on and off for some 20 years now. Sometimes he came back here (for mom mostly) but for his health it is better for him to live there. IF he came back here he would be in a wheelchair 24/7, there he is able to walk...slowly and not for a long time but walk anyway. SO way better for him. I miss him heaps and he misses me, so.....that is why he offered :)
