Dreams

Me and my black girlfriend

I had a dream Kallie and I went to California to visit her family. Only, her family was an african american family. She had 2 half brothers and a half sister. Kallie is a halfrican. It was weird. They were throwing a picnic for us, and Kallie hadn’t seen them much, and I didn’t know much about them. I kept thinking, “I don’t remember these people at our wedding. I wonder if they even came.”

Kallie was joking around with her half sister, saying that Kallie’s dad was back in down, and her mom overheard and said, “wow, I didn’t know he was back in Michael.” As if the town they lived in was Michael, Ca. I didn’t realize until after I woke up that Michael is the name of Kallie’s biological dad. Anyway, the whole time it was very awkward and I wondered why Kallie kept in touch with these “siblings” because she obviously had nothing in common with them but an african american mother, that wasn’t even all that nice to us.

I woke up thankful for my mother in law 😉

You can do anything.  It’s sounds cliche, but it’s true.  You define what you perceive as your limitations.  It’s also important to not that just because you can do anything, doesn’t mean you’d enjoy it, or that it would come as easy as it does for others.

What motivates you at work?  Are you never happy unless you get more money?  Do you just want to have freedom to set your own workload and deadlines?  Or is it the opposite in that the more your accomplish tasks, the more you’re happy to work?
