This weekend just wasn’t long enough. I have a pretty busy week ahead. I have several classes to teach, at least one VIP tour to give, a few meetings, and to top it all off, I have to go to the dentist to have a tooth prepped for a crown. However, all I want to do this morning is to crawl back in bed, but one of those classes I mentioned is today. Hopefully, the headache I woke up with this morning will go away as the day goes on. Usually, when I wake with a migraine, it goes away by mid-morning. I hope that’s how today goes.
I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.

Ironically, I woke up with a headache myself. And I had two crazy dreams last night, both of which I remember and are just funny/weird. One of them involved driving a green car to a shopping center were it was bring a green car day…isn’t that silly!

Oh poor Joe with yet anoyjer headache. You need a loving partner to look after you and share your problems.
That sexy lad in the pic today might make a good candidate.

The why of dreams is often a mystery. 😂
