tuesday
Dreamed last night that I was in a swimming pool with other people (students?) and Bill (who was a gym teacher before he retired) was there, sitting on the edge of the pool. He was much overweight in the dream. In his earlier life he was supposedly overweight but he had lost a lot of weight by the time I met him so I never saw him in that way. I was talking to him in the dream about the proper way to live, how to approach life. His philosophy seemed to be to take it easy. Don't get your feathers ruffled. Enjoy life while you're here. The dream just faded out and I woke. I'll see Candy later today and tell her the dream. It's something we all need to hear more often.
I was cutting up this apple for the chickens this morning and was struck by that pink color near the bottom. Then the whole thing started looking very detailed and photo-worthy. Fruit!
Looks sexual. And animalish. It is sexual - the birds and the bees and the flowers and the fruit - all sexual.
The manger scene that is out front year round. Two Mother Marys (the one in the back is looking on with sadness at the end of the story), two shepherds, two sheep (one is on a shepherd's back) and a frog, with a broken Baby Jesus on a broken manger.
Looks like he's trying to get a high five from mom now that his other arm is missing.

I have a lot of stuff I need to move around and clean in my room and the spare room in the next couple weeks. Johnny and Alison and Alison's dad Michael are coming to stay for a few days around New Year's and I need to make 3 sleeping places in those 2 rooms. There needs to be a massive cleanup. It's on my mind a lot. Procrastinating. Maybe I'll get started today.
