RANDOM THOUGHTS FROM ABROAD

Around midday Monday the weather improved and we have had some nice, warm days (though there was thick fog first thing on Thursday  morning). I have not been feeling at all well though - just totally exhausted with no energy. Maybe it is related to the fact that most nights I have woken in the middle of the night soaked in sweat and not feeling good. Last night was better though and today Friday I feel a bit more rested. Hubby is at dentist at the moment.

The food has been pretty yukky this week, with everything soaked in either fat or vinegar! We are hoping things might be better tonight (please God!) as I believe some more guests are expected! On Sunday, the hotel is actually being closed for two weeks - although as they accidentally took our booking for the night, they agreed to house us in the next hotel along (the Eden) for the same price. A big company, Maistra, owns several hotels - four of which are in this little area in the trees and near the beaches. Two are newly built and very luxurious. The Eden is the other older one.

Yesterday evening my husband decided to walk up to the Eden and check how far we will have to transport our cases. Whilst there, he called in to check they are expecting us - only to be told that it had just been decided to close the Eden too! So now we are apparently going to the Lone - one of the two new hotels and five star! It is mainly a hotel meant for business people, I believe, but is very luxurious. Should be interesting, folks! We will take lots of photos!

It is so good to feel a bit better today - I had been worrying how on earth I would survive the journey home, so it is a big relief to feel a little better!

I am worrying quite a lot about our daughter though. About two weeks ago there was a nasty incident when she was alone in her car during her lunch hour and she almost choked on some tuna. Ever since, she has  been coughing a lot. She went to the doctor this week and was told it could have caused some scarring. She is on antibiotics now and not feeling at all good.

She also - at long last - mentioned some female problems she has every month wih unexpected bleeding and pains. I have been telling her for just so long that she had to go back and get herself checked out. Whenever she has seen anyone in the past, they have always said she is okay but now it has gone on so long they have to check it out! The doctor she saw the other night said he will seek advice from a gynaecologist.

Hubby is a long time at the dentist - he has been gone two hours. They always take their time here though! Unfortunately, hubby is going to have to come back here again in six months to have the permanent implant put in. Today, they are just putting in the temporary one. He had the peg it is attached to - and which fuses to the bone - put in on Monday.

Bye for now. xxxxx
