There is no doubt about it - my subconscious is telling me that it is time for a change. Last night's dream had me frantically cleaning out bureau drawers and closets, throwing things away with abandon. I ripped apart beds, pulled off the sheets and threw them into the washing machine, and piled up the blankets in a big pile. There is no doubt that my closets and bureaus need organizing. I have never been great on filing things away, or remembering where I put things. As long as everything looked neat and tidy, that was good enough for me. In my dream, my daughter helped me and we made great progress in our efforts.
It must mean that I am ready for a change in my life. Do I want to travel, perhaps? I would like to go back to college, but I am afraid that is not an option. I am thinking of finally yielding to my doctor's advice and using insulin for my diabetes. I have always refused it in the past, but I suspect that now is the time to be brave and accept the inevitable. Of my age-related problems that is the most troublesome. It might make it possible for me to reach my goal of living to be a hundred. I have taken the cheerios challenge and am now eating two bowls of cheerios a day. I try to eat an apple a day and some canned fruit, usually orange segments. Other than that, I am pretty passive about my health. With my adorable little great-granddaughter to inspire me, I should be able to stick to the rules and hang in there a lot longer. Time is flying by and she is almost five months old. Soon she will be getting solid food. I wish I lived closer so I could see her more often. I am looking forward to seeing her on Mother's Day.
No more thoughts occur for this blog. Should I perhaps enroll in a class online? We'll see!

Maybe an idea will come to you if you clean out a bureau or closet? Maybe there's a wonderful something you stashed away waiting to be re-found? Something to give you an idea of what new to persue in your life. It's great that you still look for change and new things to do, many people don't and I think it really helps to bring new things into our lives from time to time. It can be fun and a little scary at the same time depending on what it is. But they say that's what keeps us young... building those brain waves by trying and learning new things. I think they are right.
Thank you so much. I really must clean out my bureau drawers at least, they are a mess. Also, I am going to see about taking a college course onlline. So my dreams may come true after all. thanks again. i love comments.
