Summer Dreams

Summertime is great for dreams! In May I create a list of things to do around the house to improve it like painting the front porch, laying brick for a patio, etc... Are these pipe dreams or can I make them reality?
That all depends on the flow of money and mine or my husband's time. The brick for the patio has been done. The paint for the front porch has not. It's too humid to paint down here during the summer and we are waiting for our finances to balance since he just started a full time job after 1 1/2 years of unemployment.
So, what are your summer dreams? Don't let them melt away! Share them!

Who Has Time For Day Dreaming?

    You wake up at an early hour, get up and do your morning patterns (everybodies' schedules are different depending on married, single, kids, or animals). You go to work either half day or full 8-10 hrs. You come home to the evening patterns. You see this blog title and say, "who has the time?" Frankly, everyone does with out knowing it. For me, it's either just before I decide to get up (animals wake me up between 5am and 6am) at 7am or just before I'm falling asleep. Sometimes it's when I'm just riding in the car.
   We drift off and think about how we will make dinner and how the evening will proceed. We think about how the animals will let us sleep in, maybe, till 6:30am. We think about how we will perform our job that day. All day dreams.
    So, tell us, in reality, do you have time to day dream? When do you find yourself thinking about your day or your goal? How about those thoughts before a presentation and how it will astound the boss so much....?

Your Memorial Dreams

  On Memorial Day weekend we are to remember those soldiers, mostly young dreamers, who died fighting for what they believed in which was and still is the freedom that we all share in. We have the freedom to write anywhere, as long is it is not covering important warning signs like "sharp curve ahead" or "Danger : Cliff!"
   In the Civil war many just lied and joined up at 15 or maybe younger. They are young children/adolescents with dreams of life after the fighting is over. They wrote their dreams in the letters to their families or on notes stuffed in their pockets. They are as young as 18 now going into the military.
   Soldiers still write their dreams, here, on the Internet, where they could reach more people to insure that their dreams of their families growing up in a free country will come true.
  We all have memorial dreams that are now memories. Mine are the dreams I had as a child to be grown up, then as an adolescent to teach, then as a teacher to teach better, then as an aunt to make my nephews and nieces have good memories, then as a daughter and sister, to make my family proud of me no matter how much I mess up. Another dream was and is to experience new things. I'm pretty sure owning guineas, chickens, Turkeys and goats counts! Now my dream is to write books so children will have fun learning and traveling in their country. My dream has always been to give children good memories and create good memories.
   What are your Memorial Dreams?
