Dream a little dream of me

             I know there is a website you can visit where your dreams get analyzed. I also know that there are people out there in the world that you can pay for them to analyze your dreams as well. I prefer to do my own analyzing.

              Friday night, I dreamed of Theresa Caputo, The Long Island Medium. Meeting her in person is truly something I would like to check off my bucket list one day. I have put myself on her waiting list so her and I could possibly communicate with my mom. I feel that by trying to do I would know that my mom didn't suffer. We tried to make sure she had pain medication around the clock and that she was being forced to stay on Earth for our own sake. God knew it was her time and we had to let nature take its course rather than putting a feeding tube in and watching her be a vegetable pretty much just so she could still physically be here.

             On facebook the other day, Theresa had posted that she is doing another tour and tickets would be available soon. I remember thinking I should go and see how much and where, but I didn't. I guess that sprung a thought in my brain later in the night.

              So I ran into Theresa while out I guess ( because we weren't in my house or hers) and she begins to communicate with my mom. She says, "Your mom wants you to know that she didn't suffer. She knew who you were the moment you walked into the room. She's sorry she couldn't say anything." I just turned to mush. I said, " I know that's what I thought. I just wanted to be sure." Theresa says, " Your mom is very proud of you making it into nursing school." I said, "What? I haven't found yet." Theresa replies, "Oops! Well surprise!" She thanked me for listening and off I went. Our mini session was over.

              Last night, I dreamed of sitting in my high school cafeteria awaiting the answer as to if I "got in or not". I sat among numerous girls awaiting the answer. At first, in my dream, I think that I am sitting here waiting to hear if I got into nursing school. As more girls got up with smiling faces, I thought no this has to be something else. Someone comes by the girls I am sitting with and hands them a decorated paper plate ( weird I know, but hey that's what they were given). The person tells them " I'm very sorry, but you didn't make it." They take the plate, grab their things, and walk out. I am now the only person at my table. All of a sudden a girl I went to high school appears at the microphone and says, "It was a tough decision, but we narrowed it down to the last two.Luci you will be joining us next year." Some other girl comes running up to me and congratulates me on making into Dollies again. I'm super excited and call my dad and sister and Devin. Once I get to Devin, I realized wait a minute I thought I was waiting to hear about nursing school. As I leave the building to get into my car, it's raining. Actually it's flooding. I can barely walk to get out to my car. Devin is walking with me and he says, "That's so awesome! I'm so glad you got in!" It's like he new, and everyone else I called too, what I was awaiting to hear good news about. I woke up a little confused and tried to go back to sleep so my dream could finish, but I couldn't. I hate it when that happens.


           So my analysis is that, yes I am stressed about whether or not I am going to get into nursing school. I haven't exactly felt too stressed nor have I been a mess waiting to hear. I have been checking my email religiously since I found out Aug 21 would be the earliest day I would hear.I still haven't gotten anything, but I have til the end of next week still. So I am dreaming about that because it's subconsciously on my mind. I believe that if I ,or anyone else for that matter, dreams about my mom talking to them it really is her communicating with us. Maybe she knows something I don't. She was always very positive and optimistic, so I'm sure she is the same person in heaven. The only difference is that she has angels wings and can be with God everyday. I know he is watching over us everyday. We may experience tribulations every now and then, but he has proved that he does not give us anything we cannot handle. He has a plan for us. I believe the plan he has laid out for me about my career has been chosen. I know I am wanted in the medical field. After doing home health care and being a CNA, I have found my calling.

           With UCF and other colleges in Florida that offer nursing ,not exactly being ideal, was God's way of saying, " Look you searched it out and discovered it's not the best situation. So now you know what you should really do." I know Devin wants to do 3 different courses at MMI. I only want him to do 2 if not 1 because I don't want him to be away any longer, but I know God has a plan for him and both of us. If we have to be apart a little longer than preferred, God knows what he is doing. Because again, he doesn't give us anything he knows we cannot handle.

           Once again remember,

 Always pray to have eyes that see the best in people, a heart that forgives the worst, mind that forgets the bad, and a soul that never loses faith in God.

Mani/Pedi Day

    I got promoted at work recently and I feel like a chicken with my head cut off. I am always busy. I went from being someone who sat and waited for a call to come in to someone who is either replying to a business email, answering the phone/someone's question, not being able to have a moment to think and never leaving on time.

     Last week, I had to turn in my UTHSCSA nursing school questions. I wanted to make sure I had plenty of time to do them, but every time I came home I felt so worn out. Luckily, I had the weekend to complete them and send them to my dad and my aunt to triple check everything made sense and was good to go. Now, I have to wait til the end of the month til I find out if I got in or not.

   One night, I decided to bring some work home with me so I wouldn't have so much to do the next day to where I could possibly leave early! Well, it must have been a sign from God because as I am cleaning up my email somehow it jumped from the trash folder to the inbox and PURGED everything! ( Yes, I cried.) I couldn't believe it. I put my face in my hands,had a little hissy fit, and wanted to crawl into a hole. Devin comes over to see if he can help since I am computer illiterate when it comes to 'fixing' what was done. Unfortunately, there was nothing I could do. I tried calling the email tech support and they couldn't help me because I didn't have my work's account information. I couldn't believe I had just lost everything I had received from July 23-Aug 7. Devin advised me to just go to bed and not worry about it. He said, " Everyone makes mistakes." I was just so damn worried that I was going to walk into work and tell them what happened and looks of "what the hell?!!"

    The next morning Devin tells me that I never left work because throughout the night I was yelling in my sleep, as if I was talking to people at work, telling them what they did wrong and so on. I was obviously very stressed about trying to get all the work I needed to finish done and then it was just the cherry on top having 3 weeks worth of emails gone forever!

     So  I go into work and talk with the IT guy about my  little mishap and he spoke with the email tech support and supplied them with the information I couldn't give. All they could was get my emails up to Aug 6 back but hey that was better than nothing! I did some recon to figure out what I had lost and so forth, so no I wasn't banished from work for eternity nor was I objected to have my head chopped off like I was expecting. :) ( Yes, I tend to over exaggerate)

     Last night was a good stress reliever. We went to downtown disney for a kiss tribute concert at the House of Blues. It was so much fun. I had a cherry vodka sour and Devin had a 24 oz budlight and it was freaking $17 for that! I was like hmmm I think this maybe my only drink, until I sipped it and it tasted like cough medicine. The first time I had a cherry vodka sour was at New Year's and it was delicious! This one not so much. So I tried something else. I got a whiskey sour. Yea, that sucked too. It was like I drank spiked water. Seriously. Oh well, other than the awful bartender we had a blast. There is just something about seeing grown men wearing platform shoes and face paint that makes everything better. :) The poor guy that was being Gene Simmons could barely walk in his platform shoes. Devin and I couldn't stop laughing! He would pick his legs up high as if he was a giant when he would walk. Too funny.

       This morning I decided I should get a mani/pedi to be the cherry on top of my stress relieving weekend so I did. I have never been to such a huge a spa! I felt like royalty being so comfortable and luxurious! I love walking out and feeling like I have slept for days. You just feel so relaxed. It's truly amazing. I get home and Devin has mowed the grass, done dishes,and packed up laundry to go to the laundromat. I couldn't believe it. Now he is making dinner on his bbq pit  while I write on my blog and watch shark week. Have I mentioned how great my husband is? Well he is pretty awesome!

      I'm glad I went and treated myself today. It had been awhile since I did that. I think next time Devin and I are going to have to get swedish massages.
