quick story i didn't have time to tell you before...
the other night i fell asleep with my right arm resting on my forehead. hours later i woke up and had no feeling in my arm. it just felt cold. i literally had to lift it off my face with my left hand to rest it on my stomach because it was completely drained of blood and had no strength to lift itself. after that i actually had to feel up my arm to confirm it was in fact attached to my body. it was weird, but i was only half-conscience so that accounts for some of the weirdness.
OH MY GOODNESS!! i just got off the phone with matthew, he and shauna are ENGAGED!!! yay, i'm soooo happy for him. and her. them really. oh yay, they're probably gonna get married on september 2nd. i said to him "oh matty, you're all grown up and getting married" then we concluded that he was getting married but not growing up. wow, that's neat. wow, now that i think of it, he is my first really-close friend to get married. matt's very special to me.

that arm thing happened to me several times this summer. Sleeping in the hot heat of unventilated rooms at camp, I would put my arms above my head to have as little skin touching other skin as possible and when I woke up my arms would be asleep (but never as badly asleep as yours). I didn't really like the feeling of having 2 major limbs go all wonky.
I've never lost a limb (literally or figurately) in sleep. I have felt lonely at times though. And there isn't any reason for it. I too have a wonderful community of friends and family (biological and otherwise)so I think when I do that's, perhaps, an indication I'm not really accessing the people God has provided so I DON'T feel lonely because,surely, that's not the norm he meant for us Michelle
wonky limbs are bad news...
michelle, i think you're totally on the right track. you explained that so well too, i think you've hit the nail on the head.
