1/23/23 Two Dreams: #1 Making Paint #2 Car Broke Down

#1 I am cutting up a green plant to make paint. I am to paint a picture on a wall down the basement. It is a picture of a woman in a sun hat. Feeling: happy

#2 My car broke down. It think it is my old car I named “Stanley” that I owned in my late 20’s and early 30’s. I am working out the insurance. (I got into a couple of accidents with Stanley and had him fixed both times, even though the insurance adjuster said he was “totaled”.) I am hoping to get the money from the adjuster. I go to a hardware store and stand in line. I am to show the clerk the paper work.

Day Notes; Paul and I had our friends, Brian and Jean Marie visiting. Maybe this has to do with me getting a knee replacement. (I loved Stanley!)

1/14/23 Two dreams: Seeing Ian and seeing my Recently Deceased Brother-in-law

#1. Seeing Ian. Ian and I look at each other. He doesn’t recognize me. I say, “Ian, it is me, Bonnie.”(both of us are our age)

#2 I am standing at a huge gathering of people who are all coming and sitting down at these rectangular tables. It reminds me of up in Tower in the church basement. (feels crowed). There are family and friends there. I see my brother, Dan, sitting at one fo the tables looking at a card (greeting, sympathy card?). I also see my cousin, Johnny, walking in.

Terry, my brother-in-law, who died between Christmas and New Years arrives. He is in his early 50’s. (died at 72 and was very thin and struggling with poor lungs) He looks healthy. He has thick, wavy hair, pepper/grey. He is wearing a black and white, large plaid shirt. He comes and sits down next to Dan. I know the celebration is for Terry.

I am standing up to one siding watching the goings on. I am to create a book of photos of Terry for him. I am a bit nervous about doing this. (my usual nerves about doing a good job). EOD

Homeless Man 1/10/23

Jeanne G. and I ride our bikes to a presentation. We go early. It is raining. We go into the presentation hall. There are a few people there, sitting down. We go into the bathroom. Jeanne wants some soap. I go out and get her a bar of soap. There is one on every table.

I am then sitting at a table on the sidewalk out in the street. A homeless man comes right up and puts his face close to mine. He scares me and I feel I cannot trust him. I grab my stuff and go into the presentation.

Day Notes: I had my first appointment with Dr. Hamilton. I started thinking about having a knee replacement. I felt that the universe was telling me to do this. I had gone through two other orthopedics and it felt like hitting my head against the wall trying to get the Synvisc shot for my left knee.
