4852

Dreamed last night that I was helping some people with an editing task. We were using a editing device that took in blocks of text, parsed the text for spelling and grammatical problems, and corrected the errors. I was in charge of running the device. I manipulated a set of controls that determined how thoroughly the editing was done. The process was partially subjective and relied on someone with experience at the controls. The task was judged to be complete when the margin of error (which was a setting that could be made) was achieved. My job as the operator of the device was to home in on generating an edited document that was within the margin of error, but that did not dilute the content. Everything in the dream was highly analytical.

Went down to see my new granddaughter today. Something that was not very analytical! She was sleeping peacefully and apparently did so last night. Her mother had been able to get some sleep and was doing well. It was a joy to hold her for a while and feel her breathing in my hands.

I found the drive down and back to be a bit stressful, but nothing major. It was nice to get back to the apartment though and the stillness and familiar surroundings. I have a dance class in the morning and a lunch/movie afternoon with BH/GH. Looking forward to dancing. Didn't get in any walks this weekend so I'm ready to move.

Cooling down tonight! Still been mild weather so far this winter. Soon will be spring!
