One of my dreams has always been to go to the island of Catalina, but I'm not talking about that kind of dream here. I'm talking about an honest to goodness REM sleep dream in which freaky things happen and leave you confused, weirded out or just plain frightened for days afterward. Have you had dreams like that?
I had one like that last night. It was actually set in a place like one of the houses pictured above. Mel and I were moving into a different house (in the dream), but the people who had lived there left their furniture, and it was old and dusty and ugly, and the people weren't even gone yet. One might gain some insight into what's going on in our lives just by knowing that much. So why am I confused? Yes, we're having some major life changes, and being one of those creative types, I tend to make whole ranges of mountains out of anthills. So I've thought about this dream all day. It seemed to me that there were some interesting possibilities for interpreting this dream, but I'm not getting much out of it. Care to take a stab at it? Moving new furniture into a house that already has furniture, making room for sleeping comfortably and in privacy, taking the bedroom out of the living room...that kind of thing.
And how about you? Do you have a particular dream that recurs and confuses you? Oh! Oh! I have a great dream every so often in which I realize that I'm dreaming, and that I have the ability to make myself fly. I love those dreams! Anything to share? And if you would like to try to give me a hint about why my dream was so weird, give it a try. I'd love to hear it!
First off, I want to thank you for your prayers and rejoicing with me over what the Lord has done and is doing in my life! I praise Him for His grace and mercy!!
Now, on to the matter of my hair . . . I am getting it colored and cut (well, shaped really, it's not long enough to cut!) next week. I can hardly wait.
Here's the deal. It's about three inches long and it's starting to fill in. Do I dare go out in public with my own hair after it's colored and cut or should I wait a few months until it fills in more? I've been wearing a hat in public (so tired of wigs!), so I can continue to do that--and probably will since vanity sometimes takes over--but I was curious as to your opinions.
What would you do if it were YOU? Would you be brave and go out like that or would you continue to wear a hat or wig when you went out?
We have news that is just too good not to share! Diann had her checkup at Zion today and she's going to maintenance! Her CA-125 is TWELVE!!! TWELVE! And the scans showed no cancer, just scar tissue. An amazing, stupendous result of all your prayers and God's graciousness. Thank you, Jesus!
She'll be getting Avastin every 3 weeks but she has never had any side effects from it so she should be getting stronger and stronger.
Thank you SO much for your prayers and continued prayers, friends!
