Crazy Dreams

I won't bore you with my crazy dreams but man, they were nuts. Each one was different from the next but I probably woke up from a whacked out dream 3 times last night. Given all that, however, I slept well and managed to get back to sleep each time I woke up. Even better, Jim didn't snore at all last night. I thought for sure he would since he hadn't slept the night before but apparently the heavens were smiling down on me last night. 

So sad that Leslie Jordan died yesterday. I had just started following him on Instagram a few weeks ago and was so enjoying his stories. Way too young...what a bummer. 

Speaking of dying - have I mentioned the latest podcast I've been hooked on? It's All There Is with Anderson Cooper. I think I have mentioned it...it's about the process of grief and how we, as a society, just don't talk about it. And it sounds like this would be a bummer of a podcast but it's not. It has so much hope and comfort from the guests. I would say that I've not been dealt a lot of grief in my life so I can't imagine how all-encompassing it can be. Listening to different perspectives however, gives me such insight to how to wade through it. His guests so far have been Molly Shannon, Stephen Colbert, Laurie Anderson, BJ Miller and Kirsten Johnson and each one of them, having suffered some profound loss, gave such interesting perspectives and made me really think about relationships I have with my loved ones. Really, no matter what, you should listen. 

Sorry for being sappy.

In other news, Scout is outside barking and he's about to get a whoopin! He knows better which is why he's probably only barking once...waiting a few then barking again. Arg! The problem is there's a baby deer in the woods who's probably been left for a while by his/her mother and he/she is screaming. Dang wildlife!

Dinner tonight: Spicy Thai noodles and a salad, I think. 

And that's all I've got. I floundered on the couch longer than normal this morning before doing yoga so I'm out of time. Happy Tuesday! Later!
