Crazy Dream: Trust

Crazy dream time again!  I must have been at some kind of camp. I can remember being there, teaching a 3rd grade class kind of thing. My nephew, MrZ, comes home from school, swinging his bookbag. Asked him how it went he said third grade isn't right for me..  I said maybe you're right for them???

Then we headed off to church.  We sat up in the balcony.  The preacher was on the stage that was right over a roaring river.   He said they were releasing a bunch of mosquitos and proceeded to push what looked like dead leaves over the ledge into the water.  With every push of the broom, the lights grew dimmer. 

Soon we were sitting in the dark and it felt like we were in a boat, hands grabbing the sides as it twisted, turned and rocked its way down the river until the water became calm. The lights were brought up slowly again, and we were sitting in actual boats .... wooden rowboat types. And the preacher says  "This is how you trust in the Lord.

*shaking my head*  

simple message, or totally convoluted???

Helicopters

What a marvelous invention helicopters are .... but they can also be annoying!  I live relatively close to a freeway and helicopters use the freeway as a sight line when they fly toward the hospital.  At least I assume that's where most are heading. Arizona uses helicopters often for medical, rescues, and even police work.

We also get the occasional Army copters that fly by - they too follow the freeway on the way to their base.  Most days, I don't mind them.

Monday, there was a wreck on the freeway in the early morning hours, and the news copters were flying slow lazy circles that passed over my house. It started just after 4 this morning and continued to just past 8.  

Its impossible to sleep, and sometimes even relax when it feels like your house is being buzzed.  So I got up and started my day.  Which is why at 530pm I have had my shower and doing some reading! Time to relax and enjoy the evening.
