I was dreaming of rainbows. Three of them.

One was was very large spanning a good portion of the sky. One was bright and smaller, and seemed to be floating closer. One was almost wishbone shaped: muted. I was struck by that. I knew it was special.

The dream started when someone had called me over to a large window to see them.
Don't know who it was. Not sure where I was. I remember thinking Florida, but not my mom's house.
My mother called my name.

Loudly, clearly and filled with wonder and questioning. So real it woke me from a sound sleep. By the time I recalled all this and looked for the time, it was 6:58. I'm guessing it took me about two minutes to gather my wits, get out of bed, and check the time on the phone.

Since,I was jolted awake, I started my day. Put some short ribs in the crock pot, set up coffee and programmed it to brew at 9:30 am. Seasoning the ribs gave me the incentive to clear out some very old spices from the spice cabinet

I took some motrin because my throat was kinda sore and several people in the van pool have been out sick.
Ate a grapefruit, and wondered if I really could go back to sleep.

Obviously not, because here I am writing all this down just to get it out of my system.

Now I'm ready. Good night, good morning. God Bless.
