Last night's dream

We were on an overnight trip.

And we were spending the night in a super huge house.

I was sleeping at one end of the house.

And Tejan was sleeping clear at the other end of the house.

All night long I heard him calling "Auntie Cathy!"

But I couldn't get to him.

He was too far away.

  1. Agony, Cathy. Did you really dream that? That is heart wrenching.

    wow, crazy how your heart, mind, spirit, body are really going through this eh? This week you are in my prayers continually and many prayers are just breaths and candles...not much else to say. My heart hurts with you.

  3. I've gone to a counselor and she told me that dreams are your subconscious working through things and they are often metaphorical. Which sounded weird to me until I remembered Joseph and the pharaoh. The Pharoah's dreams were metaphors too.

    Your subconscious is "living" out your life also. It hurts and I hurt for you too.

    Hang in there...

  4. Wish I could just give you a big hug and a giant hershey bar right now. :( But I am praying for you. The Lord brings you to my mind all the time and I just say a prayer for comfort and peace and joy for you.

    "There's more to come: We continue to shout our praise even when we're hemmed in with troubles, because we know how troubles can develop passionate patience in us, and how that patience in turn forges the tempered steel of virtue, keeping us alert for whatever God will do next.

    In alert expectancy such as this, we're never left feeling shortchanged. Quite the contrary—we can't round up enough containers to hold everything God generously pours into our lives through the Holy Spirit!"

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
