My Dream

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, I want to share with you,

My Dream

My dream is to be somewhere where the weather is nice.  Warm, sunny and preferably with a lake or ocean nearby.

My dream is to own my own home.  To not have to rent any more.

My dream is to live in said home without the in-laws.  I have spent way too many years sharing space with extended family.  It is time for us to be on our own.

My dream is for Randall to get better.  For him to be healed.  Since he has taken so ill, he is not the same person that he once was.  Gastroparesis has changed him.  There is not the same fire in his eyes that was there 2 years ago...

My dream is for Kaylee to go to college and make something of herself.  I do not want her to make the same mistakes that I have.  I am trying to give her the support that I didn't get.  All I can do is hope and pray that she takes the right path.

In my head?  This was supposed to be funny.  Seems more melancholy to me.  Not funny at all.
