Hello to all:
Last night I fell asleep and this was my dream:

There I was holding my 7-month old daughter {except she she had long brown hair in the dream where she is pretty much bald in real life} on my hip. There was a sunset from the best writen fantasy book ever before me. The sun was setting but the colors where vibrant hues of blues and grays and violets. As the sun was setting I happened to look around, and I saw that I was standing in a field of other mothers holding their infants looking to the sun. We were singing a song. The children were calm and the mothers were rested. Yet, there we stood singing. As the sun finally fell beyond the horizon the sky was purple and there were stars flying right over our heads.

The stars grew in size until they were big enough to cover our faces from others. The singing never stopped. There was no fear or anger felt. There were no tears or laughing. I was numb. The stars were getting bigger. I noticed that the mothers were moving. We were walking in a uniform line. I stopped singing.

The stars were starting to move in whirls around our heads. They were starting to join one another together in the sky. None of the mothers would look at me. They were all singing, walking further into the field. I started to shake.

My daughter looked up and smiled at me. I smiled back.

The stars were together now. The millions of little dots formed a huge craft above us. It traveled so slow it hovered in the sky. Yet, it was so large it covered all the people on the field. I looked away.

The mothers began to calm their singing. The children all started laughing. The smiles were so bright that it was hard for me not to smile back. My fears were calmed again and I felt the urge to sing. I didn't.

We stopped moving. I noticed that the mothers were sitting down on the grass. The children were placed on laps. I also followed suit. My daughter in my lap, my legs itching from the grass, I started to cry.

The craft expanded and changed to the color of the sky that was now orange. The craft disappeared but I knew it was still there. Everyone fell silent.

My daughter took both of her little hands and held my face and said "wake up mommy". I woke up.

Hello all:

As I am sitting here writing to you all in blog land. I am reminded how I stay connected to people. It still amazes me how I have been able to connect to others through this crazy internet. Then my mind takes me to each of you.

Which of you is snacking on a ice cream sandwhich?
Which of you is drinking your third glass of wine?
Which of you is straming because you really don't want to go to bed because you just cannot take another bad dream?
Which of you is taking a break from school work? (this is me)
Which of you can't find anything good on TV?

It still fascinates me.

Well I am here. Ad there are great people here too. No matter what all the strangers are doing the cool part is that we listen to one another and sometimes give comments. What a wonderful way to communicate...and a little disturbing too.

Well I am glad to be back...and it looks like I may stick around for a while. Two posts in as many days is an improvement. LOL

Hello all.

What a crazy few years I have had. I was married in May of 2008 and my daughter in Janruary 2009. Kalysta Dysis is my daughter's name. So I have been playing the mommy and wife role. I had to quit school for a little while becasue the car business (nathan's job) was hit really hard in the economy. Now I stay at home and go to school at the University of Phoenix. One more year and I will be teaching. Hoefully!

How is everyone. I cannot wait to get caught up on posts and reconnect with old pals. I'm excited about the new direction my life is going in. I am also excited about sharing my experiences with others.

I have missed blogging and I am thankful to have a place to share.

Hello to all today:

I am so excited about this next election. It is suggested that the people who have the most control in this next presidential election are those under the age of 30.

It is amazing that a generation of people who have always been told that we have no voice in this process, actually get to ask the candidates questions.

It is also interesting that when the polls are surveyed they say Americans are more worried about the war and when the questions from real Americans came in we seem to be more worried about Education, Global Warming, Healthcare, and global peace than the Iraq war.

Isn't that funny? When we have an opportunity to ask questions...we mostly ask very serious questions passing over the stop stories in the news.

It seems like we really care about a ton of issues. These issues we debate and weigh before we decide on a candidate. Perhaps our generation name should change!

Hello to all today:

Well this message will be mean and angry because I am mean and angry!



FUCK THIS WAR!



FUCK OUR PRESIDENT!



FUCK THOSE WE PUT IN CHARGE TO STOP THIS SHIT!

FUCK THOSE WHO BLINDLY FOLLOW BULLSHIT BECAUSE THIS IS AMERICA AND THEY FEEL THAT IS THEIR DUTY!

FUCK THOSE WHO POST FUCKING MESSAGES AND DO NOT STAND UP WHEN ITS NEEDED!

FUCK FUCK FUCK!

Someone very dear to me is leaving to serve a tour in that fucking place many are calling HELL. It is the saddest think I have ever heard. I hate this war. I hate that a man I love has served willingly in countless places, and now he has to go to this fucking place where there are no rules.

FUCK THIS SHIT!
