On Wednesday night my boyfriend, Chris, and I head off for Bali. I won’t be making any posts until I return on August 8th. At that time I’ll add some photos and tell you about our trip. I’m sure it will be filled with adventure, beauty and lots of romance.

Speaking of romance, I told Chris the other day that I think he is more romantic than I am, and I’m pretty darn romantic. He agreed with me. He does the most wonderful things. When I’ve shown up late from Santa Barbara he’ll have candles lit all over the house and up the stairway. And he’ll often have a romantic card waiting for when I return from being away. He does thoughtful things like that for me all the time.

I spend half my time with him and I haven’t particularly liked his house, which he hasn’t really done anything to for 20 years. So he asked what it would take for me to like his house. I told him and he’s done almost everything I asked for. He had the cottage cheese removed from the ceilings, he painted inside and out (I got to pick the colors), he carpeted, he put in a new stereo system (that was on his list, not mine), and when we return I get to pick draperies, new bedding, sofa and chairs in the living room, and rug and cushions in the breakfast room. Already it’s beginning to feel more like home, which is what he wanted. So sweet. This, from a man who doesn’t particularly like change… like most men out there.

So off to Bali and a full report when I return… Well, maybe not that full.

Hugs,
