I've been up for over an hour and I am having a hard time waking up, even though I've had a cup of coffee and stuck my finger and taken my meds with an ice cold soda, etc.
When I first got up, I was still stuck in a dream, so fuzzy I had a hard time sifting through to find reality. The dream was so convoluted, with twists and turns, I cannot recount it all. I would love to jot it down but now am at the point in the morning where I'm not sure of it all.
One recurring element in my dreams is (are) highways. Always with overpasses and in very complicated shapes. I need to look that up and try and figure out what that represents. Most of the time, I am not lost on those roads, sometimes unsure, but I always figure out which one to take or am sure that I am on the right road. I cannot recall being wrong in my dreams either. Perhaps it's (re)assurance that I am on the right path after all, no matter how confusing it all seems?
One element in the dream stands out easily - an angry mother-in-law who can barely speak English. Hmmm... I wonder what that means? LOL A dream element, ripped from reality. Many times I dream of familiar people that represent others in my life. (For example, if my dream husband does something bad, he wears the face of my ex-husband - if he does something good, he wears Sharky's face.) I doubt that is so with the MIL figure - in the dream, she was doing the very things that upset me about her.
Well, now that I've had my morning bagel (see, I can type while eating LOL), I have woken up more. I still have a gnarly headache that hopefully will go away. If not, maybe I'll take a nap.
Today is the first day Sharky's had off in a while, where he's not working. Yes, he technically had last Sunday off, but he had to make that drive to Orlando, so it doesn't really count. LOL He has to work next Saturday, but only from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. I'm going to try and make this a nice day for him.
The boys had lost all their privileges until 11/12, but I told them that they could have one back IF they cleaned their room today. Guess what? They woke up and are cleaning their room. It's a miracle! LOL I just wish they'd be good without us having to yell, threaten and/or bribe them. *sigh*
Petunia was up all night long, with bathroom visits and bad dreams, wanting to be tucked back into bed. Twice she started harping on how everyone else in the house gets to share a bedroom but it's not fair that she doesn't. She has NO idea how lucky she is to have her own room!
