I'm trying to perk up today. I'd like to go to the lake, but I don't feel like going alone. Anyone want to go to the lake with me? I'll drive (I have a pass).
I had an awful dream last night. It was like the stress dreams I have where I have to move into smaller digs- hub and I and a couple of other family members (can't recall which ones) were in a 2 bedroom apartment. I was trying to figure out which bedroom we'd get, and feeling cramped and squashed. It's just occurred to me that these may have something to do with the weird psychic link I seem to have with my mom, who has been going through this herself- but I've always had these dreams, so I don't think it's all that at least. Anyway, I asked hub what had happened to our house. He said he'd sold it to some other couple. So, in a completely new twist on these dreams, I went back to our old house to meet this couple and see what it would take to get the house back.
They had made all sorts of changes. The house was bigger and not the same floor plan, but I still knew it to be our house. There were hardwood floors, beaded curtains, and lots of warm velvets on overstuffed furniture- it was very luxurious. They had added storage space in one of the rooms and I remember thinking 'that's really cool, I hope they leave it when I get the house back' and all-new shiny black state of the art appliances in the kitchen which I again thought 'hope they leave those'. Then I went to the back yard, and immediately noticed the above-ground pool was gone, as well as the fence- they had put in a shallow 'kiddie pool' or wading pool that was lined with rocks and surrounded by beautiful plants in one area, then had dug up another area and started working on a gorgeous adult pool that was long enough to do laps in but still beautifully designed with rocks and plants and little bridges and crap. I remember thinking 'wow, they're not going to want to give this up, and if they did I wonder if we could still afford it.' The thought of having to leave what was once my house, and had even been improved on greatly but was no longer mine through no action or consent on my part- and return to a cramped 2 bedroom apartment that I was having to share with several other people was really depressing.
