I have always been curious and fascinated by dreams, way before I saw the movie Inception.
Today is the every other Wednesday Wednesday. Chemo day. I try to take it in stride, after all it has been over a year since the every other Wednesday Chemo days began. It's one of the reasons I started knitting again. Knitting has become my temporary escape, a small distraction from reality.
"I am going to go over tomorrow, just for a little visit," I say.
"I don't think that is such a good idea," she responds.
"Why?" I ask.
"Well, I don't think he wants you there. He said he would like some alone time, just he and the baby", she says.
"Oh, okay, if he doesn't want me to be there, I won't, go." I say in a hurt voice.
The phone is ringing, but I can't get to it in time and it stops. Then I hear the chimes of my cell phone. I frantically search for my purse. I find it on the chair where it always is and start rummaging thru looking for the phone. Oh, there it is. "Hello? Hello?" I say into the phone. I hear my son's voice. "Ma, can you come over, I need you."
I could hear his voice so clearly that it woke me from a sound sleep. And then I remembered; "Today is THAT Wednesday." Dreams, so fascinating.
Knitting is a great distraction, but somewhere "down there, in the deep dark recesses, in that room" I will always know when it is the every other Wednesday, Wednesday.
