Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening, wherever you are in the world. I am just waking up on Saturday morning, thinking about the sort of pseudo-dream vision that I had. If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio (and there’s a few minutes of BONUS info on the audio this time too!):

The dream or vision this morning

When waking up this morning, I was thinking about the concept of how someone’s life flashes before them, when they’re in the moment of death, or I guess are dying. And my thought was what if the ‘Walls Could Talk’ or the ‘Dishes Could Talk’? As for what if the walls could talk I was thinking back on where my first husband and I lived when my daughter was born. And if we had just stayed there, we would have stayed in a mobile home that was on my parent’s property.

My mom so loved being close to my daughter and for whatever reason, in my mind, I was thinking back then that I really wanted to move away, not too far, but just far enough where I could sort of get my own feet under me; make my own choices; live my own life, without my mom kind of attached to me at the hip.

An out of state move, long ago

So when an opportunity came up to buy a house, in the neighboring state, we did it. We moved about 17 miles away from my parents. We bought the house and we moved, taking our young daughter with us. We lived there when I got pregnant and had my son too.

So we went from a mobile home in West Virginia to a smallish house in Ohio. And that’s where I brought my son home from the hospital. So we had my daughter—who was 22 months old when I had my son. I had two children (under two) while living in that house, and we lived there for only about a year. I don’t think it was any more than two years. And then (I thought about) how much I experienced as a young adult being there—on my own (with my little family) at my first house.

The dream shifted to my China dishes

And then the dream sort of peeled off from that experience, “if those walls could talk” because a lot of things happened in that house and in our experience there that I wish had not happened. My regret was, or my thought was, that we should have stayed in the mobile home, on my parents property. The dream was sort of how that wrapped up. And then one of the things I remembered was a very clear recollection of washing dishes. And I’m still using the same China today that I was using there when we lived in that house. Also when we lived in the mobile home–it was the China I bought from ou neighbor’s friend from Germany—when I was 15. I put it in my Hope chest. (Something every girl wanted to have back then.) And the China was the only thing I had in the Hope chest—though I might have had a few other items, but nothing comes to mind.

And so in my dream, I was washing my dishes this China while I was standing at the kitchen sink and in the house in Ohio, looking out onto the backyard. And it was a pretty little neighborhood. It was the cul de sac. It was a circle (circular street). Interesting.

So the next part of this is if one of the dishes could talk and how many places I’ve moved to in my life since that house. After that house, we went back to West Virginia and stayed in a small apartment for less than a year. And then we moved to Florida.

When we moved to Florida

We moved to Florida when I was 22 and it took a whole “Act of Congress,” so to speak, but it was my dad, my first husband, and my two children and me (Mom stayed behind in WV for another year or so). And we packed everything ourselves.

My dad had what I guess you’d call a cargo van. Now it had a couple of captain’s chairs in it though, but I think it was pretty much empty other than that. We had some movable foam seating that we could move in and out and then a lot of things packed in there (of ours and of my dad’s things) because he bought a double-wide mobile home in Florida and we were all going to stay in that until dad and my first husband got dad’s dump truck business going. We had already been down to Florida before from West Virginia to get that started, which I had thought we would do months before and why we had to rent the apartment in WV for a few months.

We had rented an apartment in Orlando so that was my first real experience of Florida living.

We only stayed, my kids and me, in the apartment maybe for a few weeks to a month and that was okay. I wasn’t thrilled about Orlando traffic back then. But we were in the middle of town. And I didn’t notice too much of the expanse that the city of Orlando was taking. I just knew our little neighborhood that we rented the apartment and that was pretty cool and it was quiet. And when I say cool, it was quiet.

About when we made the move. We had dad’s cargo van I had a cargo van and then we towed behind us flat open trailers that were just like a flatbed trailer—no walls, roof, or anything. It was just an open-air trailer with wood planks on the bottom.

We had loaded up all our furniture, including the aforementioned China dishes, crystal, and things like that. And pretty much in boxes as I recall. So I mean, we were sort of hoping that it didn’t rain because things would have gotten wet. Although I’m sure we had plastic tarps but I don’t remember that. I just remember the move.

Moving north

After I had been in Florida for many years, I ended up getting a job in a northern state. I’ll just leave it at that. It’s not something I like to talk about (I’ll just say it was a state north of Washington DC.) We lived there for not quite a year. But the company I got the job with had moved us. So that was a whole other experience of having somebody else come in, unknown to me, and pack our things. My China got packed up by other people I didn’t know. My mom came and helped too, though she mostly cleaned the apartment, she did help pack some of the China and crystal and things like that too. My children were teenagers then.

So we went north and at that moment in my life, I had been married and divorced. Later, the ex second husband at some point wanted us to move from that Northern State to Texas.

Moving to Texas

I had to rent my moving truck, and then he flew up from Texas and packed everything from that place into the moving truck–what a fiasco it was. I nearly changed my mind. I had no control over what all he did because he was a controlling person (years later I would learn he was a narcissist). And there were issues after we moved to Texas. I used that same China all through those years though. That (relationship) ended badly and I ended up leaving Texas—renting another U haul to move all my stuff AGAIN.

Moving back to Florida

My daughter took a Greyhound bus, by this time she was an adult, and she came out to Texas from Florida to help me (along with a bunch of people I worked with–they helped me). They were great people! I had great friends in Texas. I’m still friends with many. They helped us pack the moving truck and then my daughter drove my vehicle and I drove the moving truck. We drove from Texas to Florida to move me back to Florida (my son had been with me in Texas but he moved himself and came back to Florida a few weeks before I did).

Lived in Florida nearly 40 years

So I’ve lived in Florida. I was thinking this too I lived in Florida nearly 40 years ago. Except for the two years that we were gone because of going to the northern state and then also to Texas. But I was a Florida resident all that time anyway, and I only changed my driver’s license from Florida to Texas for the time I was in Texas; I never changed it though for the few months I had worked in the northern state because technically I was still a Florida resident, employed by Florida company. But that China has been all around the freakin’ country!

Traveling for work

I also traveled for a while with a travel trailer for work. I took some of the China with me then—probably two or three items, not much, because it was just myself and my two dogs. I was in Missouri for over a year in the Travel Trailer working out there. That’s when I met Richard—we met online and dated for a year long distance relationship until that job laid me off and I could come back to Florida and begin anew. I ended up going to the space center and working there for six and a half years.

Back to the China though, when there was that financial downturn in 2008 and 2009. I got a job in Orlando (and commuted), as we lived in Titusville. I couldn’t keep that up. And I had an offer in Pennsylvania. So we sold our house and bought an RV and I took the China with us in the RV but it was so heavy and things as one might know that does RV travel and RV living things can move around in the cabinets. So I pack it packed it all up in bubble wrap, put it in a plastic tote, and put it in the basement storage of the fifth wheel. Every place we went, it was with us. I just wasn’t using it. I had some stoneware (mom had given me) that I was using instead. And of course, plastic plates and things like that because in an RV plastic is king or queen. However, you want to look at it. So the China has always been with me and we lived in the RV for 11 years and I hadn’t used it.

Using the China again

Now that we’re in this apartment I am using my China. When we rented the condo it was furnished and we didn’t have any need for our dishes since we had all the owner’s stuff that was there. The condo had a set of a microwavable melamine type of Corning or something. We used those for two years while we were living in there.

Eleven years we were in the RV, two years in the condo in Bradenton and I didn’t use my China again until now. Yes, I’m using China again. And you know what, it’s heavy. It’s really heavy and I think that’s why I had this dream. Because of the moves, and the houses, and the responsibilities of even making all the moves. And now holding this heavy China I’m realizing the weight of it. Both the weight of the memories and of the actual China.

I think that’s where I’ll leave this.
