On Monday night I dreamed a panicky dream about money. I don’t remember specifics, but it was not enjoyable. Then when I woke up yesterday morning, “Total Eclipse of the Heart” was in my head for about two hours.

I don’t know whether the two are connected.

It ended up being a really nice day despite its kind of inauspicious start. It was crazy warm for the trailing end of October, and we had very few things to do outside of the house. That’s my favorite kind of day.

Cars in the morning

Yesterday morning was pretty much just like Monday morning, but with nary a muffin. After breakfast and computer time, Pete started an epic adventure with his cars. Poppy asked if she could join him rather than doing her spelling, so I let her play for about half an hour.
