kitchen cabinets
ok, so what little dreaming i did last last revolved around the kitchen in my grandparent's house in cleveland.....and the cabinets there-in.....in the dream they had been transformed from varnished board into gleaming thickly polyurethaned glory......and the end counter had sprouted an ell-sort of a breakfast area with stools......a curious detail in that the room isn't big enough and the traffic pattern isn't set up for such a fixture.......in the course of the dream i was looking for something in the upper cabinets.....and instructing my children to put away empty glass canning jars in the lower ones.......my only cousin on that side of the family lives in that house now.....and i doubt that she has gone to the trouble of fixing up the cabinets to the degree that i envisioned them....i cannot imagine that i dreamed myself as actually living there myself....that has never been a fantasy at any time.....so this must have been a visit....though it was my sons that i was instructing....and they were way too small to be putting things away when we last visited there....makes no sense...the searching for or the putting away......as so few things make sense these days as we pack up our middle child.....i became embarrassingly tearful when he prepared to drive to lexington yesterday.....no need to go into details because there was no rhyme nor reason to it.....aside from the resemblence to my grandmother in her dotage.....she would become tearful over the strangest things...... and in that light, maybe the dream wastelling......that i am channeling the worst behaviors of my female line......oy.......
