random monday


1) I fell asleep while the girls were napping today and had the worst dream. I dreamt I washed a newborn Elly in the washing machine. Apparently washing your children this way was completely normal, but I hadn't turned the dial to "hand washables." She was cleaned on the "heavy" setting. Thinking about her little body in the machine during the spin cycle made me nauseous in my dream and is carrying over into real life. I hate when bad dreams cross over.

2) Dawn and I are squeezing in every possible second with each other before she moves away. Last night we saw Definitely, Maybe.  The main character is in the process of divorcing his wife. The two of them have joint custody of their daughter. Through the whole movie I kept thinking of how lucky I am that Alex and I ended up back together. I know a lot of families have to deal with divorce and shared custody, I'm just really happy Canon, Alex and I didn't end up that way.

Sorry...that's all I've got for today: New York photos, divorce and machine-washed children. Happy Monday.

Love the NY pictures ... that new camera is pretty darn cool!

And, at least your children are clean. Ha. I'm sorry you were traumatized by that dream ... it was humorous on this end of the line.

it's kind of funny because your photos look like how i imagine sitting inside a front-load washer looking out would appear...

of course this washer is in the oddest places, not in a laundry mat or someones home

Cool views with your camera! And, yep, it stinks when you can't shake those dreams sometimes. Oh, check out circlejourney.com for an idea for you and Dawn when she moves. A friend gave that to me when I moved and it is so cool!

Wow, Rachel, you are so right. And I like totally...um,...meant to do that on purpose. Letting the art represent life. Yes...that's what I meant. Right.
