I had forgotten all about Beetlejuice. There might be a fair many of them around. Have a great night.

Maybe some dentist needed a cash flow patient?

Glad your teeth dreams stopped. They can be quite disconcerting. I've had a few of those, myself, but not anymore.

Yes... ink therapy.

Thank you for capturing this moment and sharing it.

In response to "Buzzing Bumbles and Soaking Rains "

I had the most amazing experience with a honey bee. I was sitting outside when I was still in Jersey. A honey bee was flitting around my strawberry plants and I was waiting to water the plant after the bee moved. It finally did and when I began watering it came back and flew in and out of the spray. When I stopped it landed on my hand with the hose in it. I didn't dare move. For those few seconds I felt the bees energy. The wings were like a soft caress.
I don't know if it was the same bee that visited again when I watered but the bee was never afraid of me.

Watching the monsoon from indoors must be some experience! Coffee and a good book is always a nice choice. I like rain and sunshine, both in bearable doses, however.

Don't worry about a prayer limit, there isn't one. We could say a thousand prayers a day for a year and still not reach a prayer limit. God's mercy is unlimited and so is the amount of prayers we say.

Awww! Northeast Spring! Lucky you!

You took me back to 30 plus years ago, plus the five senses...
Everything seemed to come alive after the cold winters, there.

And yes, I used to love autumn, too. We don't have that array of colors when the leaves are changing here in down south, at all. I think I miss northern autumns more than its springs.

In response to "Pies and Intimidation "

I've worked with a lot of men over the years, I found they appreciated me being open about what I knew and what I didn't.

Lemon meringue and key lime were my grammy's specialty. I never mastered making them myself. I agree with your hubby about Maine blueberries, they're the best. I'm prejudice about blueberries, I'm a Mainer or as we call ourselves Mainacs.

In response to "Pies and Intimidation "

I had a hard time to figure out what intimidates me, also, and I could only point a finger to myself.
Working with men has its good points, I think. Mostly, anyway. In my dealings with men, I found out that they appreciated it when I told the truth instead of faking any know-how.

What Dreams Will Come this Halloween?

"Blogging Circle of Friends "
Day 3600 September 9, 2024
Halloween Or Samhain is in 53 days. What costume do you think will be the most popular in 2024? Why?

With Halloween only 53 days in the future, I can imagine that the upcoming election will invade almost every aspect of our lives...Halloween will be no exception. I fully anticipate getting a few Donald Trumps at my door. For the extra achievers, I can see them pulling together a Tim Waltz costume complete with a wild, white wig, and a pair of sneakers. I do believe that the most popular costumes will take their cue from the Beetlejuice sequel, out just in time to inspire and delight. Truth be told there are a lot of options. Trick or treaters can try to pull off the green wig and moldy skin of the big guy himself, and strut about in his signature black and white striped suit. Lydia's gothic, bright red wedding gown makes another Samhain-worthy choice. We might even get a sand worm or two!

Day 3209-- September 9, 2024
Prompt: Dreams
What do you think about dreams in general? And if you wish to elaborate, what recurring themes or symbols appear in your dreams? Are there any patterns you can identify?

Dreams are tricky. On the one hand, I tend to believe that they are the clearing house for the mind. I have often dreamed about random things, snatches from the waking world that I believe my mind has processed and then decided not to retain. The dream is like a mental roomba, roaming around in one's pink matter, collecting all the pointless gibberish we've acquired by moving about the world, and then purging it to make room for other, more important thoughts.

Once in a while I'll wake from a vivid dream that leaves me feeling like I've just experienced something prophetic. I don't know whether that's divine intervention, or just my mind pulling together important messages and constructing them in the way that I can best interpret. If that is true of some dreams, then what are nightmares? Are they thinly veiled warnings?
I used to dream that my teeth were falling out in alarmingly frequently when I was a teenager. I was so disturbed by it that I looked in up in a bunch of books. There were a wide variety of interpretations...from loss of a loved one, to loss of personal security and stability to it being a symbol of great change, to a reflection of inaction when facing a challenge. I'm to sure if any of those explanations fit but eventually the dreams stopped.
