That's simply devastating, and I feel as though losing people close to me that I love would be much more devastating than dealing with cancer. Sending you hugs. I hope you have an absolutely amazing time in Laguna Beach. <br />The Life I Didn't Expecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107885670720187160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071323577655005981.post-69669171869226887912015-05-25T13:11:35.286-07:002015-05-25T13:11:35.286-07:00Thanks, Judit.

I still have the beach trip planned (Laguna Beach in California) especially now that I just lost my second brother. Both of them gone in less than 5 months. Weird that they both had to have bypass surgery and died from complications from it.

I love the ocean too, and simply hearing the ocean waves leaves me calm and in a place of tranquility:).

I went through a divorce and got a settlement at age 65. I have been spending a little here and there but mostly saving for my old age. Well, old age is here. I got breast cancer a year and a half ago. I decided this summer I am going to the beach and getting the room I want at a hotel right on the beach, so I can sit on the deck and watch the waves. I've never spent $400 a night for a room in my life, but I am doing it!!Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17984884942609175990noreply@blogger.com
