:: Life when I'm asleep ::

:: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 ::

I went up to my aunts cabin, its on a lake. It was late in the afternoon, more toward evening, so it was getting dark. I wanted to go swimming, so I went right down to the water and dove in. I was able to keep my eyes open, something I don't normally do.. When I surfaced, my family called to me from the shore to be careful, that I had never swam out so far before. I called back asking if they were kidding, seeing as I had swum half way across the lake before. as I was saying that, a current that isn't normally there caught me and brought me down to the shore a couple of houses away. an inconvenience but nothing major. I was more stunned than anything, having not expected it. my family was still on the shore talking. I looked back out at the lake and saw 8 shark fins. I screamed at my family to get inside. I ran to get in with them. we got inside and boarded up the door, when they started banging on it.

then I was home. I was getting ready to go to work. My husband asked me why I was going. I explained I already took on day off for my uncle's death, and that I needed to go back in. My husband told me that my BIL was in town with my nephew at my mothers house and I should go down because she was ill. I was confused and asked if my mother was ill, and the hubby told me she was very ill. I felt I had to go to work though, I was still getting ready when I opened a door to feed my the kittens that I am fostering, when they escaped the room they were in. My own kitties, started exploring the kitten room. I tried desprately to stem the tide of kittens from going where they were going, it was impossible. So I started grabbing kitten supplies and the cage, and I put it in a very small room that was where the enterance to the kitchen is. I pushed the cats out of the room, after asking one of my cats if he remembered being small enough to fit in the cage. I started putting kittens in the cage, it seemed I was putting in more kittens than I had. I had four, now I had seven. I was amazed. My mother then opened the door, letting cats in to the room. I yelled at her to not do that, when someone pointed out I had missed a kitten, and handed me one I hadn't seen before, but yet I recognized. I cuddled him and called him silly, and put him down. He pushed his way right through the cage door, and I laughed and asked him if that is how everyone got out.
