What dreams may come

A blog to keep track of my dreams and hear the interesting interpretations of others. The dreams are as much as I can recall of them and may be out of order and in rather rough format.

Chasing

Last night I was some sort of FBI person tracking down a bad guy. The dream consisted of a lot of running and chasing. I was pretty tired when I woke up!

The night before I had brides in my dream and the guy was trying to choose between 2 brides, but there was also a backup bride and he ended up choosing the backup bride.

A couple of nights ago I dreamt I was walking down this narrow spiral staircase and there were people behind me so I wanted to go faster. I realized there was a railing on the outside of the staircase, so I stepped on the other side of the staircase and started sliding down and then instead of holding the railing, I was holding a hanging handle and being spun in a circle, like one of those fair rides (except I think they have seats for safety) and it was a lot of fun. I think Bob and Carolyn were also in this dream (I think you guys were just extras- sorry, maybe you'll have a speaking role in another dream)

grocery shopping / church

I was at a grocery store (Lob) and I had 2 items so I went to the self scan and I scanned the 2 but there were many items that came before the 2, that were not mine and so this seemed to overload the computer and the total came up as "******" and the cashier in charge asked me if I needed help. I said yes and explained the problem. She couldn't fix it, so she sent me out the cash in front (outside the store). I was going to pay in cash $3.01. I had $1 in quarters and the .01 but not enough change to make the $3.01. So I got out a $20. But the cashier (male) sent me back inside. When in there I looked at a display of some type of clothing and picked out one (maybe pair of socks?) and went to yet another cash desk. This was a 1-16 item one, away from the other cashes, selling magazines etc. but the cashier was not very effiecient. The person in front of me was only buying a paper for .30 but it took a long time for the guy to ring him through. I wandered around waiting for my turn.

I was at a big Church for the first time. There was a little girl there that was having fun with me. It was a bit annoying.
The second time I was back MacGuyver, their worship leader, had died and they didn't have a leader so they split up the congregation in 2 rooms. One room was the people all wearing gold. They all seemed to be women. I had to go in the room with those wearing gold to get something out of the closet. They were singing- it was really beautiful and I wanted to stay but I knew I needed to go because I wasn't dressed in gold. I went back to the other room and most of the seats were taken so I took a small chair off of a table and was going to put it on the ground but when I tried to put it down the little girl from before spread out a blanket so I couldn't. I had to keep trying to put it down around her.

Dreams from St. C. Christmas break

Dec 24

Dreamt I was at a post office to mail a letter but I don't know if I had written the letter yet. I certainly had not written the envelope as I was writing it at the post office. I had asked for an American stamp $1.64. There were other stamps as well, but it needed this one..

Dec 25

There was a giant cruise ship that I was driving, taking lots of passegers on a cruise. The route was from the starting point, through 2 bays, back to the starting point, then out to sea, then back to the starting point.

Another dream- not sure of the location but I was cleaning the floor. It didn't take long for the water to get dirty. Sarah B. was there.

I was teaching a class but it wasn't my regular class. It had a book that made it easy to teach. There was one prof type in my class (maybe Capt. Kenny?) The students seemed pretty interested. I was short though- only one hour out of an hour and a half class. I realized after that there were some things I missed talking about- administratively speaking (because they weren't in the book?) like if students had taken a similar course before they could get an exemption.
Before the class I was running around the building trying to find something. I took the elevator but it seemed slow.

Dec 26

4am
There was a wooden floor that the teams went out from. It was wheelchair accessible because the slopes went down to the shore. A trojan horse could be pushed along.

7:30am
There was a store where James and I were shopping. I had picked up a Dora the Explr. 'Ice' for him and a book for me. The woman who worked there knew me and asked me to help her so I put my items down and was helping her with flyers. She wanted them prepared for 'Spears' (advertising?)

8:30am
Big arena- had to keep listening for the knocks which was hard as it was so big.

There was one knock at my home door and I was suspicious and it was a small chinese child. I pushed him out onto the porch. Theresa was there with Holly and a boy. They knew the chinese boy. The boy ended up by the fence. He was laughing. I talked with Theresa.

Back at the arena there was trampolining. I had to be careful to stay out of the way.

Dec 27

Putting away recycling (boxboard)- I wasn't sure what to do with the pile but someone suggested putting a box back together and putting the boxboard in that.

I was teaching (or helping) in an elementary school class. Mme Pirrie was ill so a new teacher had come in. I was sitting near the front of the class and I could hear all the rumours in the halls (which were untrue). Rumours about me and others. I tried talking to Holly and later the boys (her brothers). Holly seemed to get it more.
There were 2 older girls (maybe 20) still in school. I think they were sharing a place but they were frustrated because they didn't know how to support their household, because they were both in school (really, one needed to be working)
One had a boyfriend who brought her food and stuff, the other one didn't have anyone

7:30
I needed something from George's office so we went to get it. I was carrying a white and red stuffed animal for him to give away to a winner. Walking through the corridors George had all these baby clothes that he was giving away. Piles. I thought to myself- was there any 6,7,8 for James?
There was a little girl about 8 and she was happy, then all of a sudden she was crying. A man (maybe her dad) went to talk with her in French and soon she was smiling again. She had long brown hair- very pretty.
I think we were on a plane- I was putting my coat on and there was a small child's scarf with the price tag still on.
The plane suddenly dipped, then flipped and the motor cut. Everyone was still intact. I was reaching for my seatbalt. (James woke me up here)

Dec 28

Dreamt about being underground and there being a charge set by 2 guys. They were leaving it but it went off early and it blasted a girl and a car up and they hung up in the air on part of the sturcture. I was concerned that the extra weight up there would make the structure unsound.

Dec 29

Dreamt about being with 3 girls and a guy searching a house for something (maybe there had been a break-in?) and we were in a bedroom (at least the girls were) and Gabrielle 'found' a secret compartment (though I think she knew it was there all along) that turned over and there was something on a spring. Gabrielle was all "O" but it seemed fake. I went down to tell Carol. She was still putting up Christmas poems. I went up to her and asked if I could talk with her and I kind of vaguely told her. Then she looked down the hall and she saw Joel(her husband) and Gabrielle and she knew because he was tugging her along with him. She called him down and he came to the landing just above us and I could see that his middle toes looked like army tanks. Carol was really upset with him and said "Run" and he did, with Gabrielle.

There were little pods that were used for getting across the lake quickly. I udes one and told people at the other end that the ride was cold. They said there was a problem with the system and when we looked at the newspaper it said that the pod line had been shot.

There was a youth group trip by car. I wanted to go along, even though I wasn't really a youth. But the cars were full. They were waiting to see if more cars would come. So I went away and when I came back there was another car, but it was also full. The midgit from the library was in it. I was packing anyway. I packed a bag of flour and a bag of sugar. I thought it might be easier if I measured out the recipes into ziploc bags and then just had to pour it out to make cookies or pizza crust, etc. but I might not have had time to do this.

Craziness

The first dream startled me awake at 4:30am and it took me a long time to get back to sleep:

James was going to school by bus but instead of going in the bus he was going on a sled that was tied to the back of the bus. It went along not to bad at first. I was running alongside. Then it turned on to Victoria St. and headed south. There were only a few blocks to go to his daycare (which I guess is where he was getting off). In the first block there was a big giant pothole which was filled with water. He went through the big puddle. Ick. But then he seemed to be up ahead riding his bike. Then he had a bad fall. When he had the fall, I was startled awake. (I know I need to let him go and be independant, but I also want to hold him close and make sure nothing happens to him!)

After I managed to get back to sleep I had this dream that 4 girls (including Clara and I) were at this really posh resort. We had a really beautiful room and there were lots of posh bathrooms too. It was coming time to check out and pay the bill but noone seemed really ready. I think we were going to split it 4 ways but I don't know if we all 4 had to be there at the same time. There was one room that I had to go down a really steep staircase to get to. The colours red and black stood out in this room. Myron and James were across the road. I wasn't ready to go yet, but I went across the road to see them. The road was at a point where it takes a 90 degree angle. There is a traffic light there but people seemed to ignore it making it very dangerous for pedestrians. I went across, almost getting hit. Then I went back, almost getting hit again. I waved my arms about this time and the car that almost hit me did slow down and look worried.

Watermelon

In my dream there were pink 3D snacks shaped out of watermelon pieces fit together. There was also some white puffy snack.
My boss Brian was asking me if I had been to the library. I said no. He said that it was time to go now. Then Kassie had a night fright and woke me up.

Visiting

Kristin (from BC) was driving us somewhere. Telling us about her brother who has maxed out a gold card at $200,000 and was now in hiding. She parked in a parking lot but the tires were up on a parking barrier. The car came down with a bump after I got out. I walked in front of the car, kinda worried that I would be hit, but I was ok. James and I went to cross the highway. The cars went very fast on this road. When we crossed, we couldn't see anything but we still hurried because they would come up so fast. When we got across the road there were a number of houses there and I didn't know which one we were looking for. Kristin had the address, but she hadn't crossed the street yet. So we were just walking. One house had this barbie hanging on the door, with beautifully croched clothing hanging beside her in green and white. James reached out and touched it. About the same time the door opened and it was where we had been going. We went in and sat down. I went to take off my coat but I realized it was too cold and kept it on.

There was also this clothing store, maybe owned by don cherry, and we were rearranging it. Some people didn't have faith in it, but we were reorganizing the racks. The colours were so bright.

Baby

Last night I dreamt that I was pregnant and I had been for a while and had not noticed. In fact I was close to labour. I sat briefly on an ultrasound scanner and you could see the baby inside. I was travelling too.

Trip down the river

We got back from our trip to St. C a few days ago, but we have no computer at home (it's in the shop) so I can't enter the pages and pages of notes I have from the last 2 weeks, but I will get there!

Last nights dream had me on a large barge, it was like a barge train, with many barge cars. I was lying on a barge. It was open. I could see the water all around. I was very peaceful lying there, but there was chaos all around me. There was a reported interviewing my cousin Bapke about England. But she doesn't live in England, I thought.

There was also a dream about the US pres. election. The candidates were physically fighting with one another.
