A dream is a wish
I had a dream last night....well "this afternoon" really.......that caught me by surprise. The dream itself was fantastically complex and unusual as most dreams tend to be, which is pretty normal for me. I am one of those dreamers who will remember everything to the tiniest and mundane detail. PRi has bought me several dream interpretation dictionaries for this reason. When I talk about my dreams, it can go on for several confusing minutes because I will recount everything I can remember.
This afternoon's dream was no different in that respect. It had its usual array of people, places, and things that have been on my mind lately. Some details were opposite of what is true in real life, such as PRi's "workspace" full of exercise books and texts was neatly arranged alphabetically, which if you've ever seen PRi's house, you'd be laughing right now. My "workspace" was a disastrous mess and large pile of stuff that I had to sift through. I was also at the Alex for some reason, though you'd probably not find me there anytime soon.
The most unexpected thing about my dream, however, was that my aunt was there. I haven't dreamt about her for a very long time. But she was there, smiling. We didn't need to talk. It was just comforting to know she was there.
wanting to pack.....again
I've been pretty neglectful this month with updating this thing. Oops! Not a lot to say, really. PRi probably could give you more of an update anyways.
Not much is new with me, I guess. Working lots as per usual. Went to MORE education day last Thursday and talked about a lot of things that didn't have to do with what we were supposed to be learning. Particularly about the lady in ICU. She's doing alright last I heard and was going to be extubated yesterday. Baby's doing fine. Scary stuff. Then I worked nights this weekend, and ended up saying hello to some old friends. Hope they're doing well:)
Went to see Ocean's 13 yesterday. After the weekend I had, I needed an infusion of hilariousness. Great movie, though the first one is still my favourite. Makes me want to go to Vegas again. I was just there! But June weather is much different than February, and all this rain and cloud and
brief sunshine finds me longing for hot hot fountain watching, air conditioned shopping and margaritas! Oh, and the occasional roulette spin. 29!
But I'm trying to be really good. It's so hard right now to resist the urge to go somewhere. I've been lucky this year as I've been able to travel alot. I also need to save up some cash for October. *sigh* I find myself imagining the possibilities when I look at my October schedule.....
Toronto is so close to the border.......
I'm so terrible! I should be saving my money....not spending it all! Wasn't I thinking of buying a condo? Maybe it's the way the market is right now. I know I can't afford anything, so I might as well put my money to good use.
Oh the temptation!
I'm not reading MORE
It's been a while since I last saw my blog, so I thought I should rekindle the relationship that we have. Still working. Still surviving. Same old same old I would say. But that would be a lie.
I went to Winnipeg last weekend....I spent a few days there for my grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary. A nice surprise party took place. Good times were had by all. More visiting with family this time around, instead of an afternoon at the beach or zoo or park or whatever, which was fair since the whole reason for being there was for the anniversary. Though we did go shopping in Grand Forks last Monday :) It was nice to see everyone again.
So I get home and return to work (after an incredible 12 days off!) to find that there was another record number of deliveries for May. We didn't make 500 but came pretty darn close. "That's not very much" some people have said to me, particularly one of my many patients yesterday. It's enough to populate an elementary school. It's about the same as my graduating class. And that was just May.
Nuff said.
I was also able to get July 1st off this year (yay me!) I didn't think I would have been able to do so, as I have night shifts the entire July long weekend. Yay for shift trades:) I am very very much looking forward to seeing Jo and Eric again! Especially in the company of everyone coming to enjoy Peter's cooking. I think I will try a different assortment of alcohol this time....
