Waiting on the Apartment People Part Two

Since you asked Kimmie! :))
I sent the pictures of Sherman, Copied my drivers registration and took pictures of my car licence plates... I showed the letter I wrote to Nevada for Daine's birth certificate. Nevada hasn't sent me the Certificate yet. I signed paper work,I copied my tax return from last year. I sang a little song, made a little lunch and got down tonight!! OK, not really on the last part.
I mentioned the words ANAL Retentive They are waiting for some more information to come back on me, like the official "IF I am a serial killer" kinda thing. Nothing about finger prints yet, I am going to give them my BUTT PRINTS if this doesn't end SOON. Any place else you wave money under their nose and you are the proud renter of an apartment. So far the money hasn't done much for them.
They will have to use a crow bar to remove my carcass is they ever try to evict me once I am in. MAD MAD MAD

Lady in the water

These Dreams



I dreamed of dead animals everywhere. Squished, about to give birth. There were animal babies laying on the trail I was walking. They were looking at me with half dead eyes. I didn't know what I should do. I think there were about fifteen baby alligators in the stages of death. I wondered if I should ease their suffering, or leave them to nature. I thought maybe I could get my hands on a children's wading pool and fill it with small fish and water, and maybe the alligators could revive.
Dead bears,bear severed heads... I cannot imagine what it could mean or what I was stressing about. It stunk, I could smell the death in my dream. I was feeling sick with the strength of that smell.
The day before it was an elephant baby following me everywhere I went. It thought it was tiny, but I knew it would hurt me if I stopped running. I climbed to the top of a tower with narrow passageways and it ran up to me, wedging its way through. I realized it could get stuck and we would both die in the tower.
I don't believe in dream association, like if you dream of water someone is going to have a baby, or a ladder means death, or a dog digging in the yard means money... or what ever the dream experts make up to match symbolism. I do not, I think it is simpler then that, but I have no idea what dead animals and nuisance elephants mean, or even alligators seeking assistance.
JEEEZ could it be my family?
I think of them more like healthy zoo animals, playful and annoying all at once.
If it were a circus, I would be the trapeze artist, and I would fly high above it all.
If it were a zoo, I would be feeding and endless cleaning.
If it were a Forest, there would be blankets provided for the night, and food provided for the day.

SANCTUARY!


Daylight coming and me wanna go home


I could write two blogs this morning. The other one entitled, "Drum roll please"
I am supposed to call the apartment people today. I am praying for good news. Good news like, "MOVE IN PLEASE"
And the other part of my morning is, three kids (house apes) one infant princess, a baby pug, a cranky son in law, mucho homework, and my Oldest daughter is at clinicals till three. At which time we will all be nuts. I would steal the spoiled fat dykeeni, my son, and my dog and hide out for the day, but I am a nice person.
Mostly a nice person who honors family commitments while lamenting that I am merely the gramma of the two little girls, dykeeni, Labrador,rat terrier,and baby pug.
I get to walk free with the nine year old boy and cocker spaniel with the jaws from hell when my apartment is ready. Notice I said, WHEN not IF.. I am trying for optomism. Like Mr Hatch says.. he is positive all the time, he must have been born that way.
AHHH life could be very easy.

Rabbie Burns Night


I wish you could have been at the dinner last night. It was more wonderful then I could have imagined. The music was spectacular. Chelsie's son Quinn is only a month old and he loved the bagpipes. They had a singer that had such a smooth lovely voice, I think she should be a recording star. One of the ladies there last night had been going to the Robert Burns dinners for seventy five years. I didnt know it is one of the longest running celebrations in the world.
There were lots of kilts, bagpipes, dirks, and sporans last night. Daine was most immpressed by the fancy drumming done by a band called the "Sleekit Beasties. We feasted on Roast beef and Haggis. I liked it, it was a bit like a spicy rice pilaf, or bulghar wheat, which I used to make all the time. Daine met a little boy who was one of the clan that started the celebrations, his grand father was a guest speaker. The little boy named Collin was wearing a kilt all the way from Scotland. He decided that he and Daine were friends, and they went all over the place together, I liked him very much. They held the dinner in the Jordan Ballroom, and I felt that I wasn't quite dressed up enough. All in all I thought the evening was well worth the money. Chelsie said she enjoyed it very much, and Daine says we have to go next year.
