Little Luxuries
There are things in every day life we don’t realize are “little luxuries.” And by little luxuries, I’m talking about some minimal comforts, like an armrest in your vehicle.
I dropped off my car at the collision center 3 weeks ago (story on car crash here) and was driving around the most economical rentals during that timeframe. Not to be dramatic, but it was miserable! The car didn’t have an armrest or that little slot on the ceiling for sunglasses. I could easily name a handful more things but I’ll spare you the details of my misery.
Finally, I got my car back today!!! While I don’t drive anything out of the ordinary (My car here if you’re interested), I’ve got to say it felt pretty great to be back in my own vehicle. If I’d had another minute to myself without traffic I might’ve even shed a tear!
Dreams
The last time I had dreams (or should I say nightmares if they were bad?) was when COVID had just hit the U.S. in March 2020. I think I had about 15 treacherous dreams across 2 months’ time. It was the only time in my life that I remember having dreams so frequently, and they eventually stopped.
Until now. And now that they’re back I think stress is the trigger for my bad dreams. It sounds silly, but I had my first one a couple nights before leaving Hawaii. I knew would be returning to my aforementioned car problems, and I’d be lying if I said it hasn’t been a stressful time. So here I’ve been the last 3 weeks with bad dreams, but now with ole faithful back in my arms I think they’ll go away.
