Nah My internet was being really slow again and I hit send twice.... then it froze on me when I tried to edit it.
Speaking of all theses dreams, I had a doozy when I was a kid. It was the same dream for months.
My mom had one of those big dodge vans that was so popular in the 90's . So Mama and I were going down the road and I looked out my window. Then for some strange reason, I looked at my mom and she wasn't there!
So then I looked back out of the window and then at her again and she was there. This went on several times in the same dream but finally she always disappeared for good and I would wake up trying to scream for my mama but I couldn't.
Scared the snot outta me.
Sandy, the hostilities between the French Canadiens and the English Canadians probably goes way back to the wars between the French and the English in Europe. What was Acadia or Acadie in French is now known as Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and northern Maine. A number of Acadien descendents have moved back to those areas and fly the flag of the Acadien people at their homes. I have one here on my desk. The Cajun flag is similar, but has the castle or castile of the Spanish, as part of their flag. The Spanish controlled the Louisiana territory at the time of the deportation and welcomed the Acadien exiles to Louisiana.
The English have since apologized for the deportation and Acadiens are welcomed back to those provinces.
I always heard that you can't die in a dream, too, but I just looked it up, and a bunch of people said they did die in a dream, so I guess it's possible.
Vets have bad dreams because they are reliving bad experiences, I think. I'm no expert of post-traumatic stress, but I think if you have unresolved issues or fears, you'll dream about them. I think everyone has bad dreams occasionally. I wonder if any psychologists have explained what they mean. I'm not even sure what significance dreams have. Are they trying to tell us something, or are they just disorganized random thoughts?
I think dreams are strongly associated with our waking thoughts and activities. When I used to read for a living, I often dreamed I was someone else, not myself in the dream. I was probably making up a character to be because I spent a lot of waking hours reading and identifying with a character who was not me. Since I no longer do that volume of editing, I don't dream I'm someone else.
Dreams are weird, when you think about it. Why do we dream? Why are some dreams easier to remember than others? Why are some dreams very pleasant and others are nightmares?
Gotta go. BF is here with my Valentine goodies so we are going to celebrate Valentine's Day early.
Many combat veterans have frightening dreams about the war that they fought in. It's understandable, since when they were fighting, they were dealing with life and death experiences, kill or be killed.
I thank God that I never saw combat, when I was in the Army.
Have fun, Terry !!!!!

It's been snowing all day here, since I mentioned it starting this morning. Jerry, is it snowing yet up where you are? I heard this storm is moving up from the south, so you're likely to get it after we do. We don't have a lot of accumulation for the time it's been snowing, but it's mounting up. I think they predicted 3 to 5 inches. We get less than some surrounding areas because we're between the 2 biggest Finger Lakes here, and the large bodies of water mitigate the amount of snowfall somehow. It's supposed to be much worse south of us. We have a bunch of microclimates here, and there's a snow belt that we cross when we travel between Ithaca and Binghamton that's always got more snow than surrounding areas. In fact, they built a ski slope at a spot along that snow belt: Greek Peak.
Yes, Sandy, it did snow here. We got about 4 inches of snow before it changed to rain this afternoon. The rain has tapered off for the time being, but we may get a couple of more inches of snow from the backside of this storm, before it ends tomorrow morning. Our weather is greatly influenced by the Atlantic Ocean and the North Atlantic is a cold and nasty body of water.
Since we celebrated earlier we are going out to dinner tomorrow, my choice of restaurant.
Good night, everyone. This is a photo I took this morning. I didn't go out walking, after that last experience trying to keep the snow off my camera, but I just poked my head out the doors. This is a shed in the backyard.
Jer, Lis - Good seeing you. Glad you didn't get too much snow, Jer.
Nice Happy Valentine's post, Lis
Terry- Nice, I'm hoping to see my chocolates this evening. Hubby traditionally stops at the grocery store and picks me up a variety of chocolates for Valentine's Day.
All the dogs in the neighborhood were rioting last night. There was also some howling going on somewhere in the distance. Sassy and Willie were barking and running to the fence line to bark. Hubby says it is coyote breeding season. Definitely feel like I didn't get any sleep.

Good morning, and happy Valentine's Day!
Here's something that's amazing: a guy who makes sculptures from wrenches. They are very good, too. Australian Sculptor Works Wonders With Wrenches | The ReUse People

Too cool. That guy is amazing.
I thought I heard someone walking around the neighborhood last night and Hubby says he heard someone, too. So, in addition to the coyotes and/or dogs running the neighborhood, we also had peeps walking the streets.

Happy Valentine's Day, Q.
Well, I have confirmed that there are at least two sets of coyote tracks running the fence between my house and my neighbor's house. Glad I got some outside dogs!

I just went and cleared the snow off my and Bill's cars. I AM going to the barn today. The snowstorm seems to have stopped, though I did see a little snow drifting down this morning, a flake at a time. In fact, as I look out my window, it's doing that now. Maybe even more than a flake at a time now. Still, it doesn't look serious -- yet. The next challenge will be backing over the mound the guy left behind my car when he plowed the driveway this morning. Wish me luck. I think we got 6 to 10 inches, depending on which end of the car I was sweeping off.
Give Penny a carrot for me
Drive careful and enjoy your horsey time, SandySu.
I'll be getting out of here shortly and cleaning a house today.
