     Today was a good day.  My morning started off with me waking up gasping for air.  I was having what I call my "breathing dream" again.  The settings of the dream change but the main theme is the same, I can't breath very well, I'm suffocating.  This dream took place in a department store, in the boutique of expensive dresses.  There was a lady by the counter and two ladies that were to help the clients as they came in.  Mom and I walked in and I was looking at dresses, with ragged breathing, and mom talked to one of the ladies.  Mom came back over to me and said she got her measurements done by the lady.  I asked if I could do that to, so I would know what size I was for the dresses and she said no, we could only have one of us waited on a visit.  So we left.  I was still struggling for breath.
      We come back to the dress boutique and I started to ask for my measurements when one of the ladies said "Whip cream, inhale the whip cream.  That will help you breathe better.".  I woke up with my mouth wide open, gasping for breath and not only was my mouth bone dry, but my tongue was dry and hard too.  When I wake up like this, it takes a few minutes for me to start breathing right again and get some moisture in my mouth again.
     Hubby came in and he was in a rush because time got away from him and he was running late getting ready for work.  He got ready while I did my morning pages.  After I saw him off to work, I finished my morning pages and then got breakfast.  Cherrios with 2% milk and a teaspoon of sugar.  Then I took my morning pills and started my day.  I got dressed and made the bed.
     During the day, I did some reading of Zero Belly Diet, did some more crochet of the stole I am designing.
     When it got to be 530pm, I put the chicken neck and organs into a pan and filled with some water.  I cooked it for the dogs.  I cut up the organs up in tiny pieces and cut up the skin of the neck.  I threw away the neck.  I seasoned the chicken and put it in the oven to roast.  Hubby had just told me on the phone that he was just so tired of eating salami and chicken.  So I defrosted a pound of hamburger and seasoned it with mustard, hot sauce and Worcester sauce.  Then I split the meat into two patties and when he was on his way home, I fried up the two patties for him.  I made salads for the both of us and made chicken stuffing.  We ate dinner a little after 9pm.
     We watched a Major Crimes and sat on the bed reading together.  Joyful night tonight!
