Sigh

I guess i am feeling a little melancholy today. For those of you young bucks

melancholy
Part of Speech:
adjective
Definition:
depressed, sad

My Grandmother, who lived with us since i was about 1, used to get so upset with me because i always lived in the future. I miss her a lot.

I am always planning, plotting and dreaming.

Lately though, for some reason my dreams seem so far away that i will never be able to reach them.

Don't get me wrong I have achieved many of my dreams. I have a husband who loves me and is the best in the world. (he will be the first one to tell you that :)) I have the best kids that i wouldn't trade for anyone (except my grand kids) I have a beautiful home, my health is good. I have a great job and am blessed to live very comfortably.

But lately things have seemed different. I don't know if it was because winter was so long or what. But dreams seem so far away.

Del and I had a conversation a little while ago. We were talking about what trees to plant in our yard. I commented on that it didn't really matter because we would be dead before they matured.

I know it sounds morose but that is how i have been feeling lately.

morose-adjective

1. gloomily or sullenly ill-humored, as a person or mood.

So here's to my dreams

my dream car 1966 mg roadster convertible

This would be Del's dream car 67 Camero GTO

Some of my dream vacations

Alaskan cruise

A tour of Castles in Western Europe

Seeing all the great architecture in England

Relaxing on the beach of Hawaii

and my dream of living on the Oregon Coast (see 4 blogs ago)

But more than anything

I would like to grow old with Del

and just sit on the porch and watch the world go by.

This dream is the one I know will come true.
