Exam is at 6:30 PM tonight.  Thought I'd steal a few quiet moments at work, but it has been one project after another.  I still have stuff to stick in my brain.  It is a lot of memorization. (For example, all the circumstances in which Alabama will or will not take jurisdiction over a child custody hearing.)  There are about five sets of answers and each set has several AND's and OR's, and those are very important.
 
Can I hire you?  You can clean up my place for me. 
 
I suppose you are "allowed" to bring the plants across state lines?
 
Florida is really strict about that. 
 
I'll write more cogently tomorrow.  It may have quieted down so I can glance at my notes. I studied all day Sat. and Sun. but it's never enough. 
 
Thanks for the advise about my trip.  I'm waffling back and forth and it has become annoying. Many times I think of times when my mother "did" things for me as a child which she probably didn't have time to do, or she cut out her own time to do it. 
 
It was strange.  I had another dream about you.  We were in a car/truck.  I was talking to you and you started talking like a computer.  I can't describe what I mean by that, but very, very rational, and literal.  I got really mad and told you to quit.  You argued with me and I ended up leaving the scene, or threatening to.  Rather bizarre, because, as witnessed in your reply about my mother and my concerns, you come across as empathic and "not like a computer."
 
More tomorrow.  Elizabeth

Strange dream indeed, there has to be some correlation between our electronic email exchange and me talking like a computer in her dream. And the “her leaving part”, actually it was the other way around back in 1974 when I got mad at her, got in my car and drove away.
