Surreal is defined as: having the disorienting, hallucinatory quality of adream; unreal; fantastic
Pretty much my life. Sometimes I'll sit in the few quiet moments I have, which are generally in the bathroom, and realize I'm working toward things that I don't actually believe will happen. I work and plan for them and I can plan out and do each step to achieve them but I don't actually feel like the end result will occur. Of course after all that careful planning and all the well executed steps they do occur. This is where the surreal comes in. I'll be sitting in a house which is 3/4 of the way boxed up and wondering what I'll do with that expensive wrought iron mirror I had to have in the guest bath thinking wow maybe I'll move somewhere else. I don't know why this still feels like this as we've moved 10 times in the past 15 years. Maybe having four children has addled my brain somehow?
