New Year and New Lights
Well, it’s 2008. 2007 sure went by fast. I haven’t posted here in a while because I’ve been moving all my sites to a new host. And, as we speak, PHP may be being recompiled and if so, this post might not quite go through. But I hope so!
So what did you get for Christmas? I got my new bed, which is really nice. What I really would like to have, and didn’t get, becuase I forgot to ask for it, is a motion sensor light outside the garage. When I go out in winter, to leave from work, there is only the light we turn on from the house. It’s right over the garage. But I don’t like to leave it on when I go to work. It would be nice if we had a motion sensor light out there.
I’ve been looking around at lighting and I found Farreys, which is an amazing online store. They have hundreds of thousands of lighting fixtures, including motion sensor lights! They also have sea gull lighting which is just gorgeous.
If you are looking to buy some nice lighting for an after Christmas treat, I would recommend them. I really love the george kovacs lamps too, the style is very unique!

Dreaming of a New Template
Well, I’m attempting to build a new template for this blog. I am going very slow, as it’s a bit difficult to learn. But I found this very excellent theme guide and I am stepping through the different options.
I have the basic layout I want.. well, I want the right sidebar to reach the top of the browser, and not be below the header, not sure how to do that. I may do away with the header all together but I’ll have to see about that, too.
My limited creativity is my biggest problem. But I do like the rounded corners. Not so sure I like the purples yet though. Colors.. ugh, I am not good at matching colors.
Anyway, so please bear with as I redesign. ![]()

Pfft
My dreams have been pretty rare again lately. I think I had a dream last night, but when I try to remember it, it escapes me.
I did love to sleep last night, though. It’s so cozy, and comfy, in my new bed. I love to sleep. I love to feel drowsy and just fade away. It’s one of my most favorite feelings in the entire world.
Do you like to feel drowsy?

Memories
I think memory is a really weird thing. I mean, how can I have a dream at night and think I will remember it, and then it fades away and I can’t access the memory anymore? Where has it gone? Is it still in my mind?
I think it is, but maybe my brain just doesn’t think it’s important anymore and so doesn’t remember it. Again I haven’t been remembering many dreams. Maybe tonight I will. I did take a 2 hour nap yesterday, I love naps, and I think I dreamed but now I don’t remember what it was about. I like to make up stories and I was half dreaming about being a part of the Tin Man Sci Fi mini series and being with Glitch. I just love him in that show!
Anyway, time for bed now, and I hope to remember some more dreams.

Dried Up Dreams
Well I haven’t been dreaming much at all the last few nights. At least I haven’t been remembering my dreams… and now, as I type this, I thought I had one from last night but I think it’s gone again… i remember a man, blondish, curly, a meeting room maybe… I think there may have been water in it too, but I’m not sure.
I will probably remember when I lay down to go to bed tonight. I haven’t been feeling too well, either, and I think I either don’t dream much when I don’t feel well, or I have weird bad dreams. Well, I’d rather have some weird dreams than no dreams. Hrmph.

The Mattress
Well, my mattress is fluffing up, and my husband ordered me a cover for it! Water proof, so if Lucy leaks it’s okay we can throw cover into the wash! I’m excited.
I still can’t use it yet. I stand in the spare bedroom, where it’s expanding to it’s normal shape, and stare at it. The dogs come in with me and lie on it… not fair. Not fair at all. Last night Levi walked right in and on it and laid down like it was just for him. We have such spoiled pups. ![]()
So hopefully only a few more days. The Husband even got the 3 day shipping… so the cover would come soon!

New Bed!
Well, in order to encourage better dreams and better sleep, I bought a new mattress on Sunday. That was.. yesterday. No no I bought it on Saturday, then, not yesterday. I went to Ikea. The mattress was fairly inexpensive, foam, so it is now getting back it’s regular shape. It came in a roll, which was odd, but fit in my Outback which was very nice.
I also bought a frame for it. I’m going to have to look to see if the frame has a weight limit, so as to make sure that me and all the dogs will fit on it. It’s a Queen size. King is just too darn big for the bedroom. And my Husband has his own single bed anyway.
But I’m also going to get a water proof cover for it before I can use it. Darnit I don’t want to wait! I am much too much an instant gratification type person!
So next week, probably, I get to use it and see if my dreams improve. ![]()

Comment Linky Love
I seem to get some spammy comments on this blog. So in order to discourage that, I just installed Lucia’s Linky Love DoFollow Plugin. Basically the nofollow tag will be put into your comment until you comment at least 4 times.
I think 4 times is fair, since this isn’t a very popular blog (despite having the highest PR of all my blogs, makes me loose faith in PR). So, if you comment now and you haven’t left 4 comments, you’ll have the nofollow tag on your links.
I’m sorry, but I am a bit tired of getting spammy comments just for linkbacks.
And I want to reward my frequent commenters! ![]()

New Pillow
When I went shopping earlier this week I bought myself a new pillow. It’s an ergonomic pillow. It’s interesting, because it doesn’t seem like it would be comfortable at all. But actually it is very comfortable. It has a ridge where my neck is, a dip for my head, and another ridge at the top of my head.
I was hoping maybe it would help my neck problems. I still have a crackling neck and it pops regularly. This only got regular about four months ago. I thought maybe it was because my neck was out and I went to the chiropractor, but that didn’t really seem to help.
Maybe it’s stress, and instead of doctors I need an adventure vacation. I would love to go to belize. It’s one of the places I have dreamed of for a long time. One reason because it’s English speaking (or so I’ve heard), and another reason is because it’s south, and on the ocean, and I would love to do some scuba there.
Anyway, vacation or work… either way, I hope this pillow helps my neck. So far, so good. I enjoy it.
