Pixie Tail

Well… I’m going to Colorado tomorrow morning for a dog agility trial… USDAA, so I will be dreaming while traveling again. Maybe I’ll dream in the car, too, since I do hope to do some sleeping since I’m not doing any of the driving, which will be nice!

The worst part about sleeping in the car is my contacts.. I don’t like sleeping with them in, but I don’t like taking them out, either. Wish I could get Lasik, but I have an eye condition that prevents me from doing so. Keracatonus.

Oh well, I’ll figure something out. And hopefully record my dreams!

I swear… I am more unhappy with this blog’s wordpress theme than any of my blogs. Hrmph. I guess I’ll have to look around, yet again, to see if I can find anything I like.

I like pink… I like white. I like cute and I want something that has to do with fairies or pixies or dreams. Maybe some floating clouds or something. And something original and unique, too. I don’t like it when I see my theme on someone else’s blog, but that’s what I get when I use free themes.

Anyway… I’ll be looking around!

I love to watch dogs dream. I wonder what they are dreaming about. This is a picture of Tatum, my smooth sable collie girl. She is usually up and about as she has a lot of energy. Though when she sleeps, she is just a doll to watch.

She twitches her feet and sometimes her lips. I do wish I could know what dogs dream about someday. Are they dreaming of chasing a squirrel? Or going camping? Or dog training? Maybe even she’s dreaming about her not so good past for when she lived with a collector and fifty other collies.

Not sure, maybe I’ll never know. I do wish I could put a doggie GPS on my dogs… maybe gps fleet tracking can help me!

Sometimes when I’ve had a very stressful, or very active day, I get so tired that I have a hard time sleeping. Those days, too, I either don’t dream at all, or I have thoughts that circle through my head over and over in my sleeping mind that seem like dreams, though I’m not sure they really are dreams.

When I do a lot of dog sports, I get very tired, and I have a hard time sleeping. But I love doing the dog sports. I just am not active enough on a regular basis for my body to get completely used to it.

I’ve been at a dog show most of the weekend, doing agility, and it’s been a lot of fun! I bought some dot supplies for my dogs, and some cat supplies for our cats. I do love to buy things at dog shows!

My back hurts… and so does my neck. Been this way for quite some time, now. My neck has probably hurt for about six to eight months. While my back has hurt for at least a month. Though my back isn’t too bad now, not as bad as it was a month ago when it all started.

I’m going to try to see a new Chiropractor. The Orthopedic doctor didn’t have much of a clue as to what might be wrong. Though maybe I should see a different one. Chiropractors seem to work best, but I need to find out if my insurance covers one, and how much, and it’s being confusing so I might have to call. And I hate telephones.

Anyway I got a memory foam mattress topper and I just love it. I sink into the darn thing and it’s very comfortable. I like soft better than hard to sleep on anymore. I think when I was younger I preferred to sleep on hard.

I have to remember to take my earrings off when I sleep, too, or they fall out. I have lost too many. Maybe I’ll find some men’s jewelry in my bed.. but since the husband doesn’t wear any, maybe not.

Anyway, I am tired of my neck and back hurting. Ugh. I want to get better.

I’m back from Colorado… it was a fun trip, a bit too long… we were there for a week. But the dogs had a great time. Sleeping on an air mattress for the whole week was interesting. Not bad, just interesting. I have been told it would be good for my back. And it seemed as though it wasn’t bad for my back… but not really good, either.

I didn’t find the best acne treatment there… but maybe it’s to be found elsewhere! We did go to Boulder, which was nice. And I did have some dreams, but now I don’t remember them.

Last night I think I dreamed about my husband, and that we were happy, and things were good. I do like dreams like that. Even though it’s not very eventful!

I’m going to Colorado for a week.. then camping for the weekend after that, so I won’t be blogging much. If I have any good dreams I will try to write them down… but writing them down causes me anxiety and so I avoid it and don’t tend to do it. Ugh.

So this blog will be quiet for a while, but back in action in a couple weeks!

Last night I know I dreamed, because when I got up to go to the bathroom (which I have to do way too much as I get older) I remember saying to myself that I really wanted to remember that dream. And so I stuck a word in my head that was supposed to remind me of my dream.

That word was Candy.

I remember the word, but do I remember my dream? Heck no. LOL. Oh well!

Well I seem to be on a roll of dreamless sleep. Well, not dreamless, because I’m waking up at night and going to the bathroom and remembering to remember my dreams, but it’s just not sticking. Maybe it’s because I’ve been super tired this weekend because of doing dog agility all weekend.

Maybe I need some talent management in my dreams to record them! 

I miss my dreams and I want to be able to remember them again! I’m sure I will, it’ll just take some time.

I don’t usually have a hard time falling asleep, fortunately. I was taking Trazadone for a while to help me sleep, because when I started taking Sertraline it was harder for me to sleep. However, it made me be half asleep for about six months so I stopped taking it.

Now I sleep fine, but the other night I took a melatonin. A good night sleep keeps us healthy and keeps our life insurance quotes down. And I do love my sleep. Nine hours or so a night is what I like best!

Anyway the melatonin seemed like it made it so I didn’t remember my dreams as well. I thought it was rather odd. As I do like remembering my dreams! So I might experiment with it for a while, and see if I can still dream when I take it.
