Mystery Man

I had a dream last night. I was invited to a housewarming of a friend of mine who had moved into some new fancy area. On my way there near the entrance of the building, I ran into an old friend of the family [my friend’s family] that I haven’t had seen for ages. A gentleman, slightly older; he started talking to me and was happy to see me. He said ‘come, there is something I need to show you’ and he held me like he was about to start dancing; holding my hand in his and an arm around my waist. He whispered in my ear ‘I’ve heard of what you’re going through, what you’ve gotten yourself into…’

Then he started dancing with me and we were lifted from the ground, slowly moving in circles. While we were lifted he showed me all the different types of flowers on the balconies of the building, flying through the air moving up and down along the balconies. There was one particular balcony that I liked and I asked him to show it to me again. There were these beautiful wild flowers blooming in white, violet and deep purple colours [bearded iris, loosestrife]. The flowers on each balcony were amazingly beautiful and I felt so safe, comfortable and happy while being in his arms, dancing in the air and looking around, I was laughing and smiling.

We slowly drifted back on the floor again when he said to me in a serious tone of voice: ‘if only I could make you see, make it clear to you… for all those years…’ He didn’t finish his sentence and suddenly started to rattle away about good old times and memories. I could guess what he had tried to tell me and for a few seconds I looked at him as if he had changed into a completely different person. I saw some qualities I had never noticed before and realised he could make me see things in a different perspective, he could make me enjoy the beauty of nature, flowers and probably a lot more…

It all felt so familiar to me and while looking at him -chatting away while he held on to me tightly- I knew everything would be alright again. I just had discovered something really precious, a deja-vu of my future…

Murphy’s Law

“A mathematician, a psychologist and an economist commissioned by British Gas have finally put into mathematical terms what we all knew: that things don’t just go wrong, they do so at the most annoying moment.The formula, ((U+C+I) x (10-S))/20 x A x 1/(1-sin(F/10)), indicates that to beat Murphy’s Law (a.k.a. Sod’s Law) you need to change one of the parameter: U for urgency, C for complexity, I for importance, S for skill, F for frequency and A for aggravation. Or in the researchers’ own words: “If you haven’t got the skill to do something important, leave it alone. If something is urgent or complex, find a simple way to do it. If something going wrong will particularly aggravate you, make certain you know how to do it.” Don’t you like it when maths back up common sense ?”

I need to pack boxes as you probably know by now. Unfortunately I’m feeling ill due to a cold. Don’t ask me how or why but my system ran down for some reason: running nose, watery eyes, fatigue, slight headache, sneezing. Could also be severe symptoms of hay fever though. I have no idea but it does bother me because I can’t do a thing; I start sneezing for at least ten minutes. I’m on a tight schedule and can’t afford to lose time on being ill. I lost time yesterday already because I needed to catch up some sleep for a while.
I couldn’t sleep at all Saturday night. We went back to CH. at 21.30 to drop off some more stuff and then we stayed till two in the morning. We sat outside in the garden. I had to drive back because CH. and AS. had been drinking. It was 02.30 when we went to bed. I slept for about an hour and then I was wide awake till seven. No fun, tossing and turning. It was way too hot in the house! The heat is staying in the house at night it’s still 28°C so if I don’t use a fan in the bedroom then we’ll be awake all night. It’s the second heatwave in July this year and to be honest, I had enough of it. I’m dying for some rain and thunder!!!
I thought I would feel better when I woke up this morning but I guess I was wrong; I’m still sneezing and I still feel drained although I slept quite well. I have a lot to do today but I don’t think I will be able to do it being in a state of constant sneezing. I have to go and sort out my passport and send some stuff through snail mail. All official paperwork. Well I’d better go and do something… I will split the list in half and do some of the stuff today and some of it tomorrow. Talk later, it’s time for me to get started after taking some meds and making my fav chili/ginger tea.
