what does this mean ???

So last night I was very tired and I went ot bed early. Normally it is hard for me to get to sleep right away, but last night within five minutes of me hitting my pillow I was out, and then it happened. I had a dream that a fish, one of those kissing fish jumped out of an aquarium and landed in my hair I could not get it out no matter how hard I tried, and the fish kept flapping around. What Does this all mean. I have heard dreams play a role in whatever is going on in your life overlapping to your sleep and dreams you may have. What the heck could be going on in my lfe that would merrit me dreaming about a fish in my hair ? Help 

In other news …..

  • So life has been pretty good for Jenn and Becky. This year a couple of days before the new year Jenn and I sat down with a notebook and wrote down our thoughts, wants, needs and goals we have for the new year. One of the things we thought would be good if we try every weekend to take turns picking out something to do that way  we do something we want to do and that way we each get to see eachother in their own skin. So this past weekend we went out to Buffalo to see a mexican folk singer, and it was great. We danced and sang and both ended up coming home talking about it and just naturally happy. Next week is Jenn’s turn and I can’t wait what she has picked out.                             

  • We bought a new car this week A saturn vue. I love to drive it because I am short and it sits high like a minivan but its like an SUV/car. We bought it from her ex who got it at an auction. The price was nice $2,500, and its a 2004 with minimal milage. Plus its a 4 cylinder so it will save on gas. Jenn’s ex bought it at an auction and then we paid him. This June my car will be paid off so neither of us will have a car payment. One less thing to worry about, and who needs worries.
  • Jenn and I have and will continue to eat and live organic and really try to go green. We like getting ideas from a show on Sundance called its not easy being green. We used recycled jeans for insulation in the attic, planted an organic veggie garden this past spring  (and will do agin this spring ), we have changed cleaning products and lightbulbs, make our own dog treats and food, and buy organic meats, fruits veggies, breads, almost everything we put into our mouth is  certified organic.  Maybe to some people these changes are small but to us we feel good about everything we are doing, and have more ideas for this year. 

Hobbies and such

  • So I have been keeping a journal for so far  since the start of the year I try and write a bit about my day and try to remember to write down at least two things I am grateful for every night, and even just reading the first couple of pages it is nice to have a reminder that we should try and remember all the good things in our lives no matter how small or big they may be.
  • I have started exercising again and I already feel the positive bennefits of doing so. Jenn and I take a weekly yoga class every week at a dance studio in Holley and getting there is harder than doing the moves in class. I find once I am there I love it. I love the way I walk taller, the way I am relaxed and how stresses that may have been on my mind prior to the class just go away. The only hard part is getting out of the house to get there. Jenn at first hated it, wanted nothing to do with it, and now she likes it too, and we enjoy the “couple time ” we have together. I have also started doing cardio at home 3 times a week and this has helped with my sometimes sleepless nights, I get a better nights sleep. I also find I feel better about myself when I exercise, and that alone is motivation to keep at it and see what other positives come my way. I have reached a point where it is not about looking good ( althought that is nice too) , its about health reasons and living a good life.
  • Foster care has taken a halt. We have yet to hear from our case worker what is to happen with a child we were interested in.  Apparently a family memeber is trying to take the child out of the system, and they if they prove to be fit, they get the 1st right to the child. More to come as we find out. 
  • I will be taking a college clas this spring, and am looking forward to that. I will not be doing anything with that I will just be taking it for my own personal benefit. Jenn is looking into going next fall part time to complete her masters in social work, if that happens she will also be looking into a changing jobs. She is 30 credits away from her masters and I am here to support her should she decide to go back. At this point in her life it is not about the money it is about the time. Her parents would be willing to help out finacially. So having that on her mind has really had her thinking about going back. This year Jenn and I really want to work on ourselves and what makes us happy, and what would make our relationship better and stronger. I think this is a start in the right direction. 
  • In work news we had all the higher ups at a staff meeting. Our house was recognized for doing well, and it was nice to hear what everyone had to say about the house and about each of my co-workers including myself.
  • In family news, everyone in my family and Jenn’s family is well. My parents will be going to California in a few weeks to visit my sister Norma. My sister Connie has been promoted to vice mayor as well as village trustee. That makes her happy. Betty is looking into buying a new house, and Jenny has started working part time after taking 3 years off to be with her kids. Jenn’s mom finally retired and is enjoying time with her father. Kerry her sister got married and purchased a new home. Kathy her other sister may move to California for her husbands possible job promotion, and Mia her addopted neice from China is doing very well. We also have been getting together at least once a month with her brother Mike and sister in law Joanie. We have dinner and a game night, which to us is a lot of fun because we love the company, I love to cook, and we enjoy ending the night with a good card game or board game. 
  • So far this year is off to a great start, and I hope to continue all that Jenn and I have set forth on doing in the months ahead. 
  • Peace and love to all who enter here.
