I had some crazy dreams last night but the funniest one was that John McCain was coming with us to our appointment this morning. !!! WHAT?? so yeah, he was coming right in with us and i knew nancy was going to check me today so i had to whisper to max... "John canNOT come in here! he cannot come to this appointment. you have to take him outside!" and max did it and sat in the little waiting area with john mccain for a while. too much politics for me.
in another dream i was there for the appointment but two other couples were there too and they were all due around our time so i was stressed that nancy should be able to take care of ME not them. luckily now i know i'm next in line according to due dates so i shouldn't have to worry about it.

Dreamin
Currently Craving: Green Beans (hormones are back)
last night max and i both had crazy dreams. we think it's because our room was muggy and uncomfortable.
his dream involved bringing his mom to a nine inch nails concert. (ha!)
my dream revolved around my brother jacob. jacob is 26 now and lives in town just a few blocks away. i talked to him in the evening last night which may have been why he showed up in my dream. but in the dream he was 4 years old and VERY VERY annoying and somehow i was completely in charge of taking care of him. if you knew jacob when he was 4 you'd know this is a difficult task because he had SO much energy. and in this dream he was definitely upset about SOMEthing, i can't remember what, so i woke up pretty frustrated with the whole thing. AND annoyed that i had to take care of him.... he's not my kid!!!

Dreaming again
Currently Craving: more of the chocolate bars from katie and shannon. yum
About the middle of the pregnancy the dreams essentially seemed to drop off a bit. and now they are still few and far between, mostly because i'm not really sleeping like a normal person any more so i probably don't get into the deep dream sleep.
but the ones i remember have changed thematic quality (oh yeah, i used to be a therapist) where before they were mostly anxiety dreams (with lots of them revolving around yoga students not doing what they're supposed to do) now they're threatening dreams. i'd almost say fear dreams, but i'm not actually afraid during them... in general i have a feeling that i can escape the attack i'm under.
Dream 1 : Attack by Lions
in this dream i was in a large classroom like the ones in my elementary school. this room had windows on three of the four sides. max was there and so were some other people and i have no idea what we were doing. the main thing about the windows was that they opened to the outside and only the bottom half of the window really opened. the rest stayed as it was, just like in my elementary school. so we're all there, doing whatever we're doing and suddenly there is a big pride of lions outside. and they are absolutely going to come in and attack us. so while they're busting their way into the room i climb out the window. this is made more difficult by my large pregnant belly (which is making it's first appearance in a dream). i manage to escape and am worried about max but know he will be ok too. -- i think i felt a little bit afraid of the lions but the entire time i knew i'd be safe, then i was more worried about max getting away.
Dream 2: Attack by Men
This dream may have been attached to the lion dream but i count it as separate. i ran to my car and just as i'm getting in two grown men start to attack me. essentially i am in the center seat of the car and they are on either side of me and we are struggling. i don't feel physical pain and i know they are trying to get me but they aren't really hurting me. i know i will be able to out fight them and get away. at this point i wake up. but it's interesting to me that i wasn't terrified or yelling out in my sleep. i also didn't tell them to leave or anything, they were just there for me to fight with.
so maybe i'm subconsciously preparing for having this baby? like i know it will be a huge attack to my system but i also seem to know i can handle it. OR maybe i have unresolved issues about lions from my childhood. who knows. at any rate dreaming is fun so i don't complain, even when they're a little scary.

Max's Dream 2
Currently Craving: A pool in my backyard
as you know we're planning a home birth. which to most people probably sounds like i'm going to walk out into the woods and call all my animal friends to attend to me while i squat over a pile of logs in the dark or something. but home birth is actually not such a crazy idea in my family as one of my siblings and two of my cousins were born that way, all delivered by the same midwife we're working with. it's more like, 'well, that's just how we do it 'round these parts.' but it is made a little crazy for us specifically by the fact that max is a bit of a squeamish pass-out kind of guy. there have been incidents i won't go into here and he's not so good with medical shows etc. (which makes me wonder, how's he going to be with baby poop, because i'm not changing all of those things)
anyways, a few days ago he reported this dream to me:
max: i was there and you were giving birth. i was sitting on the bed behind you.. and then i just passed out and i missed the whole thing. i woke up and the baby was there and everyone just said 'yeah, you passed out like an hour and a half ago' and nobody woke me up or anything. it was really weird.
Great! this should be interesting. in all honesty i'm not worried about him. if he passes out he can do it in our bed and be comfortable. anyways, he doesn't have to do the work to have the baby, i do. if he's out cold it's probably better for him that way and as long as he wakes up in time to change some dirty diapers we're all good.

Max's Dream
Currently Craving: More Cereal
Max came home from the track on Sunday night and got all excited. he had his very own baby dream!
in his dream we'd had a baby girl and she had dark black hair (just like in my dream) and she was really small and cute. he was holding her in a baby cradle up next to his chest and she was reaching up to hold onto him around his neck. it was very sweet but she could also talk in the dream. he found that part a little strange.
very reassuring to me that he's having a sweet nurturing baby dream. (then again last night he did have a classic anxiety dream of being in only his underwear at school, oh well)

Just before i woke up this morning i was dreaming about teaching yoga. i do teach in my sleep at times, max has told me i've instructed him to 'step to downward facing dog' and usually they are anxiety ridden dreams. this one was totally frustrating.
in the dream i kept trying to start class 15 minutes early and it was like i couldn't tell time. then the owners of the studio told me i'd have an observer from the teacher trainer program and that i was fine with. but suddenly my class was FULL of people. the room was overflowing with people and they were all over the place and the mats were completely disorganized. someone was using my mat too! so i finally got everyone organized and it was time to start but then everyone was trying to talk at once to tell me their ailments. this was supposed to be a power vinyasa class that lasts only an hour and i don't even bother with that stuff because if you're really whacked out you shouldn't take the class. so they're all yelling and talking at once and i'm not going to YELL over them to get their attention. instead i sat down and chanted the longest loudest OM i've ever chanted in my life. that got them to shut up, but then i had to go to each person and hear 'my leg hurts.' etc. finally we did get started. whew! but then someone turned on the music without my instruction and i realized i'd forgotten to pick any music. what we were listening to was all wrong (plus it wasn't supposed to be on yet!) so then i had to walk from the front of the room to the back where the stereo was to turn it off again. as i was walking my face was entirely covered with a scarf and i couldn't see. very annoying. luckily i knew where i was going. i kept telling students what to do and i made it to the stereo where i took the scarf off. when i turned around NOBODY was doing it. they weren't even standing up. and then one girl looked at me and she said,' um, we're missing a crayon' and i realized she had a basket of crayons and was coloring with a friend!!! arg! so i said if you're not here to practice yoga you need to leave. and most everyone left. and by that point my observer was rolling his eyes and i felt like i'd totally screwed up. the few people who were left still were not good listeners and by this time i was like 15 minutes into this hour-long class and we'd barely stretched the backs of our legs. not good. this was about when i woke up. frustrated and tired. not particularly anxious, more irritated that no one would listen to me.

Last night i had a giving birth dream. it was great. the birth was very very short and it didn't hurt. Nancy was right there to help. and, again, it was a baby girl. only she was born a few days before christmas. i really hope i don't wait that long. but then things got hectic. i couldn't remember what we'd named the baby. people kept taking her away from me. and people kept interrupting me when i did have her so i couldn't get her dressed and i couldn't get nursing going. so that part was frustrating. but otherwise a pretty sweet dream especially with the very short labor.
when i woke up i was hoping maybe it was a sign about my friend Kiki who is SO ready to have her baby... but not yet. oh well. we'll all keep cheering for her.

i know i just blogged about dreams but last night was crazy. dream after dream after dream....
the most intense dream had to do with this scary evil spirit thing that was trying to get me. we marked the outer door with the Evil Eye to warn bad spirits away. and the evil eye would start to glow when the spirit came around. then this scary claw hand thing would open the door and try to reach into the room and grab me!!! at one point i had a spoon from eating yogurt and i used the spoon to beat back the hand. and then finally i just woke myself up and rolled over because i didn't want to have that dream any more.
for the most part my dreams have been very calm and relatively enjoyable but this one was no fun and a little scary. what is out there trying to get me??

Last night i had TONS of dreams and of course i can't really remember many of them. but..
in the first dream i was in our basement but it looked different. and i looked over to one side and saw a pipe or a bit of gutter or something like that and all these squirrels and gophers and other medium sized rodents were crawling up into it. they were using that to go up to the main floor and then they were eating tyco's dog food! ugh! so i told max about it and he was pissed and was going to go down there and do something about it. i thought we should call a professional but he didn't think so. and that's all i know about that one.
Later i was watching this never ending rock opera with some friends from college i haven't seen in YEARS. the opera was starring Jack Black but he was playing some famous African American in history and i didn't know why they didn't have an actual African American in the part. (weird) so then suddenly i needed to be in the performance so i was in a short tu-tu and pointe shoes and went up and did my little part with the other ballerinas. and then the show just kept on going and kept on going, it was getting to be like 4 or 5 hours long until finally the audience got fed up and just started clapping. finally the audience gave a standing ovation in the middle of one of the songs, jack black stopped singing and the rest of us came out for our curtain call. i looked out at my friends and they were rolling their eyes because the show was so long but at least they stuck around for it.

Last night I had a long involved dream that i was the character 'Baby' from the movie Dirty Dancing There was a water scene similar to the scene where she and patrick swaze were in the lake. there were severeal dancing scenes (not dirty). and there was a long involved drawn out scene with her/my parents and then with her/my little sister. i can't remember the details now but it was all really fun.
It was just like THIS, only i was wearing the dress she wears for the last dance of the movie.
i think it came up because last night on our local PBS channel there was a documentary (starring Max) about filmmaking in VA and they mentioned that Dirty Dancing was made at Mountain Lake, in VA. ok so it didn't really STAR Max, but he was interviewed and made the final cut. maybe they'll show it again.

Last night i had my first, I'm a mom of a baby dream.
we'd had our baby and it was a girl and somehow she totally resembled Isabelle right after she was born. LOTS of black hair, but no korean features. the dream was essentially about me carrying around this tiny infant baby girl while there were some family events going on. (so she wasn't like immediately just born, maybe a week old) and at the end i was finding a quiet spot to nurse the baby. and that ended up being on my front porch (hmmm) and while i was dreaming i was trying to remember how to nurse, like i hadn't done it before in this baby's life, BUT like i had done it before in my life and i just needed to remember how to do it and how to remind the baby how to do it. we worked it all out and i woke up feeling pretty good.
i think that's a good dream and a good sign. i wasn't all freaked out and worried an anxious about this baby, i was just settling in and naturally being a mother. i have a feeling i've been a mother MANY many times before in past lives (if you believe in that) and it will all just come to me. hopefully i'll get an old soul baby too and it'll just click.

Last night was Exhausting for some reason. in my dream i had to get to yoga class on time but i'd parked my car somewhere and i couldn't quite remember where. also, none of the clocks seemed to agree as to what time it actually was. finally i realized my car was at The Grandin theater where i worked in high school . so i had to walk down there from my parents house, really fast. and when i got there i walked through the theater and was saying excuse me to get through. finally i got to the door to the back parking lot and i said excuse me to these two skinny girls who were slightly in the way but they moved. and then suddenly i was on my butt in the parking lot. one of the girls tripped me! so i turned around and was slightly ticked off but decided to be nicer about it and was like: "i just needed to get by, you didn't have to trip me" and they were like 'why do you think you're so important' and i said 'well, i said excuse me and you moved' and somehow i tried to make it a yogic teaching moment. not sure where that came from.
so then i'm out in the parking lot and i absolutely cannot find my car anywhere and i realized it was at my parents house. so then i had to speed walk all the way back to their house about a mile away. along the way i'm thinking this can't be all that good for me while i'm pregnant. when i get there it's like 930 and class starts at 930. so i'm saying Oh no. then i get in the car and realize i have to drive all the way to salem, about 25 minutes away, to get to where class is supposed to be. and this is the first week of class at this new time, i should NOT screw it up! arg!
that's about when i woke up and had to use the loo. i was exhausted like i'd really been speed walking all over the place. and i know the thoughts about class time were because my class time changed this morning, but i woke up with plenty of time. i think it's funny that several of my dreams have to do with being out of my car and in a hurry to get somewhere, at least i had my pants on last night.

Last night i dreamed i went back to Rome but this time it was with Gigi and Jacob. we walked all over the place and there were some churches that Max and i had seen from the outside, but never went inside and this time Gigi and Jake and i went inside all of them. then at one point Gigi just walked off from us like she was going to try to find a car to rent. she was definitely in take charge mode. not sure where she ended up.
and a few nights ago i dreamed that i had to get somewhere so i drove my car as close as i could get but then i had to park the car. So then for some reason i didn't have pants. i had my Ben & Jerry's T-shirt and running shoes on and no pants and i ran from the car to max and my house. i had to run all through these neighborhoods and i could just barely cover my bum with the T-shirt.
i think naked dreams are often anxiety dreams. like being naked in your high school or something, but i didn't feel particularly Anxious. more just exposed and like i REALLY wanted to get to where i needed to be. as the dream went on i did get more concerned about people seeing me. Funny one!

So then for some reason i didn't have pants. i had my Ben & Jerry's T-shirt and running shoes on and no pants and i ran from the car to max and my house. i had to run all through these neighborhoods and i could just barely cover my bum with the T-shirt.
i think naked dreams are often anxiety dreams. like being naked in your high school or something, but i didn't feel particularly Anxious. more just exposed and like i REALLY wanted to get to where i needed to be. as the dream went on i did get more concerned about people seeing me. Funny one!

Dreamin' 3
Currently Craving: Little Debbie Nutty Bars, mmmmmm
Last night i was invited by some man we were friends with over to his house because he was giving away some stuff. i'd never been to his house before and when i got there i realized it was max's old house in the southside. the crazy thing was though that the man was claiming to live there but i knew MAX still lived there!!! the man wasn't getting rid of stuff, he was ROBBING Max. he didn't know who's house it was, he just knew the owner was away. so he's trying to give me this blue bathrobe (looks more like mine than max's) and i say to him "this is Max's house" and he's like "what?" and i say "it's MAX'S HOUSE!" and he then suddenly realized i knew what was going on and he felt bad because he is actually friends with max. and i felt worried because i needed to call the police but i was afraid he was going to try to hurt me to cover it up.
i won't go in for analysis on this one.

Dreamin' 2
Last night we were in Prenatal yoga class. i'm not exactly sure why Max decided to come to this one since he's not physically pregnant. and he was kind of goofing off. and then the teacher wasn't getting started at the right time and lots of people were just milling around. then Max had a big container of HUGE red licorice (YUM!) so we chowed down on that one while we waited for class to get going. and then for some reason i was telling the teacher 'yes i'm pregnant, but i don't want the class to know just yet' because i'm still just so early in the pregnancy. and she seemed a little confused about why i would be in the prenatal class just yet. then the teacher switched to the restorative yoga teacher and i couldn't figure out where the prenatal lady went. very strange.
part of that dream may be i am really interested in eating twizzlers at the moment. but more because i took class on saturday morning and we were going into prayer twist (a pose i totally LOVE) and the teacher very lightheartedly said 'if you're pregnant you're not going to do this twist right, you're going to twist the other way' and there was some discussion about how that would 'OUT' you if you weren't quite talking about it yet. and then she looked right at me because, of course, i didn't twist and the ENTIRE room twisted towards my side of the room. i just did a lunge instead. this was at the gym where i actually work and i'm not quite there yet on telling them. just strange that that came up on Saturday when i've never heard any teacher there give instructions for modifying if you're pregnant. i didn't say anything about it when i was speaking with Niki (the teacher) later and she didn't either. at least everyone there is very nice and respectful. they might think hmmmmmm but they won't say anything until i do i'm sure.

Dreamin'
Apparently pregnancy comes with dreams, like a package deal. so far most of mine have revolved around my mother knowing that i'm pregnant and keeping it from her.
last night we were cleaning out the cabinet beside the sink at her house where she keeps all the spices. along with the spices were a lot of my old dolls from foreign countries tucked back in the back of the top shelf. (i was thinking of those yesterday) and on a lower shelf was a bigger doll and they were all dressed alike in these greenish dresses she made for them. and then we were sitting on the floor in the kitchen and she's saying... how do you feel? and is there anything you should tell me? something like that.
i'm just about ready to spill the beans at this point. and i'm really just waiting until they get back from visiting their first and only grandbaby in arizona. (she has her own blog you can check out). i don't want to rain on her parade and i want to tell them when they're on the grandchild high already.
max is a bit paranoid about his parents having a sixth sense about it too. last night when he talked to his mom he felt like she was hinting around that he should tell her. he felt that somehow the questions she was asking 'how's sarah?' really had a hidden agenda.
maybe everyone is reading the blog. if you are.... um. just act surprised when we tell you, and you can tell us later that you're reading along. although if you are reading somehow you made it past the password thing on blogspot so you are a hacker genius and i'm not sure that that is any of our parents. (no offense)
