Very likely so….Hooray!
Perhaps that dream had something to do with residual anxiety over the MIL situation.

I felt gravity pulling me SO hard when I went to bed, I just could not stay awake for anything. Just konked out immediately.

… last visit (early Thanksgiving Day
) before the Pass thru the Cascades becomes too dicey to plan visits in winter
. Dreamed about my extended family living together in a newly built large house with multiple levels of outside maze-like decking. I saw my (deceased) mom + stepdad, as younger than my current age! Omg, it was so good to see them
. My uncle was the one in charge of construction of this house. In real life, he is 85+ now, but in the dream, he was young enough to be managing this project….️

Funny…. Yeah, usually, there are family folks that have died that appear in my dreams.
. More dreaming that included family members who have died in the last decade, but the details are lost this morning
NapDoggo walk…husb didI once had one of those dreams when you find out you've got an exam but you've no idea what it's about. I looked at the group of worried people with me and said, "Sod it, let's go have lunch". Guess I don't really stress much...
That’s good for you
. Another dream, but no one familiar appeared. Just what would have been an anxiety producing situation when I was young (starting at a new school), and now, it is just a time of being along among strangers, with no real sense of anxiety about it….which is odd, as I consider how many times I felt dread at that thought and it actually was part of my life growing up.
. At the end of sleep, my dream was about my feet having skin issues like when I was little, from anxiety. I have not experienced that problem for many decades, but my husb has now developed psoriasis on his feet from the last 3 years of dealing with his mother. My feet *only* sweat, as an adult, which is plenty wretched, but at least they are intact

*Thanksgiving Day*
This year I feel less immobilized by the memory than in any previous year. I spent last week working out the emotional clogs remaining from the week BEFORE his death. As a result, today can be just a normal weekday for me, yay

. Canoe woke me up at 4-something to go outside for stomach cramps. Took me some time to get back to sleep. We watched The Substance last night which left me with many disturbing thoughts + impressions.

. Canoe woke me up less than an hour after I had fallen asleep to go outside. His tummy is still cramping, poor thing. After that, tho, we both slept the rest of the night, thank the gawds

Well, I am only about a quarter of the way through it (I’m a slow reader
). As I read the different perspectives of the daughters, I’d say I am entertained, more than anything, currently. My teenaged granddaughter was reading it in her language arts (do they still call it that?) class, so I thought I’d give it a shot. I do plan to finish it, however slow I am. I’ll say more at that time.
