Drama Queen

Michael's mum is being a challenge at the moment. The woman herself doesn't stress me out directly, because I just ignore her when she's being a drama queen, but when it starts to stress Michael out to the point that he is so wound up he's about to snap... then I get pissed off.

I nearly grabbed the phone off him last night and told her, "You know what, don't worry about it, take your house off the market, and let's call the whole thing off - WE don't need to put up with this SHIT!"

She's convinced herself that by moving in with us, Michael going back on the carer's pension, and having us all own a house together that she is doing us a favour. This is our life for the next however many years that she manages to live.

Dreams

Last night I had a whole bunch of strange dreams. There are two that have stuck with me.

In one I was at a plant nursery and saw the most incredible blue flowers, they were so rare and hard to get, and they had a whole plant stand of them. I was grabbing pots and claiming them so that I could take them as land offerings for the Women's Wheel (blue being one of the women's colours).

In the second dream I was up at the local Buddhist monastery (which I've been to IRL) and some of the girls from Lodge were with me. People were crowding the altar stand and praying at the statues; I was waiting for Kelsang Dyorning to speak and I caught a glimpse of him at my right hand side during the prayers. Suddenly the room was emptied, and I was there with a handful of people. Kelsang Dyorning was gone, and another monk was in his place, ready to begin the meditation. I was saying to the girls how this room was usually full for the meditations, they were surprised.

I know we learned something, and I think it was in relation to the pregnancy - perhaps more so that the Hindu guide M saw is starting to come through again - perhaps it's not hindu, but buddhist?
