Unhelpful Officer’s

Dream Setting:

Traveling down a country highway.

My Dream:

I was traveling down the road and came to a road blockage. There were about 3 cars ahead of me, one of them was my youngest sister. It was dark out, could have been early in the morning or just after dark in the evening. I don’t know the time. I get out of the car to investigate and find a carpet roll is blocking both directions, as if it were a tree that had fallen across the roadway. The roll of carpet was at least 6 feet tall, that is 6 feet in diameter, and as long as is a two lane highway. The cars in front of me including my sister were discussing how to get around it if possible. Or try to push it out of the way. My sister did get around it and the other two cars decided to try and push it, with no luck. By now there are several more cars stuck on both sides than before, one of them driven by a friend of mine. We had donuts in the car that were meant for sharing at our destination, wherever that was. Eventually 3 police officers show up. They look at the situation and then just stand on the side of the road watching. I walked up to them to ask them what was going to be done about the issue. They wouldn’t even let me finish asking my question, they began telling me that it was none of my business and that I needed to get back in my car. They gave tickets to those that tried to get around it or move it, including a ticket to my sister. I again walked up and tried to talk to them. I tried asking them what the tickets were for, but again I was rudely interrupted and yelled at. I was told that they were not going to talk to me and that I shouldn’t be asking any questions. If I bothered them again I was going to get a ticket myself. I simply asked, what would the ticket be for? We got in this heated discussion about what they legally could or could not ticket me for and I reminded them that they are public servants and are supposed to keep the peace! I asked them all their names so that I could be sure to contact their chief and have a discussion about what happened. I also had several witnesses to the situation. I did call the chief and had the discussion on my way to town after we got passed the carpet roll.

 

 

 

Night Time Chase

Dream Setting:

In one of the towns near my child hood home. It was after dark.

My Dream:

My sisters and I were hanging out. My middle sister drives a jeep and the top was down. I am the oldest, she is the middle and then there is the youngest sister. The middle seems to be the one that causes the most trouble in my dreams… and probably in real life too. You know what they say about middle children… Anyways, my middle sister had found this small monkey running around and decided to capture it. The monkey immediately liked her and they were fast friends. The monkey rode on her back and sometimes buckled into her jeep. After what seems like a few hours in dream land, which was probably like 2 seconds in real life, we met up and I got to meet the monkey. As I was making my acquaintance, this giant gorilla, like the size of a tiny home, comes barrelling down the street. Where did this giant gorilla come from? It was heading straight for us. We jump into the jeep and race off thinking we had escaped. Then the gorilla appeared on our left! We tried to hit the gas but could go nowhere. The gorilla had got to the jeep and grabbed it by the roll cage. We had just enough time to slip out of the jeep and run on foot down the road. We saw a giant tree and began climbing. The gorilla was swinging his long arms at us, trying to grab us. We jumped in a building window and ran to the other side and out the door. Of course, this is a dream and the gorilla probably had heat sensitive eyesight or something because as we ran outside we saw the gorilla hot on our trail. We spotted a motorcycle not for away and jumped on it. The key was in the ignition and we zoomed off leaving the gorilla in the dust. We were finally safe.

Twin Madness

Dream Setting:

My mothers house before heading to visit my grandparents, over the river and through the woods and over the mountains too.

My Dream:

My mother who has three adult children and no desire for any more, had a freak pregnancy that produced twins. These infants were both boys and born premature. They were really tiny… and one was even smaller than the other. Kind of like a runt situation. I was really excited to meet them so I drove up to mothers house a couple days before our trip to grandma’s. I was surprised at how tiny they really were, I knew they were preemie’s but I was still shocked. My mother had to work so my sisters were babysitting. They decided to go to town and were loading the car when I pulled up. Of course we spent some time catching up and I wanted to meet my brothers so I looked in the car and they were laying in a cardboard shoe box! Where were the car seats?  I scolded my sisters for not using car seats and they fought back. “They are fine in the shoe boxes, mom doesn’t mind.” one said. “Who do you think you are to come here and tell us what to do? You don’t live here anymore.” said another. We bickered back and forth with no resolution. They apparently had decided they had enough from me and marched into the house to call our mother. I was sure my mother wouldn’t let her sons ride in the car with no car seats. To my surprise my mother didn’t care one bit about the car seat situation. As I packed the boys into the house alone, my sisters just left them in the car, my mother pulled up. I was happy to see my mother but I was not happy about the way they were treating the new babies. So my mother told me to back off about the car seats and I came full force down in argument about the safety of infants in the car. We were in a pretty heated discussion and it ended with me asking her if I bought them the proper car seats if she would use them. She said she didn’t know.

After everyone calmed down, except there was no way I was letting this go  but for the moment, we went inside and tried to be civilized. My youngest sister had a white coat that was soaked and hanging behind the wood stove to dry. It started to smoke and then flame burst out the sleeve. I started hitting it and smashing the sleeve to starve the flame. I stopped the fire but some areas of her sleeve started turning blue. There was nothing I could do. The next morning we were heading over the mountains to visit our grandparents, without car seats! My middle sister had planned to go hiking with a friend she used to like, now she despises him, on the way over. So they were going to leave really early in the morning and go hiking and meet us at our grandparents in the afternoon, probably not long after the rest of us show up. That night at my grandparents my husband and I were heading off to the camper for bed and I saw my middle sister unrolling my sleeping bag. It looked like my sleeping bag at least. I asked her if she stole my sleeping bag and she was adamant that she had not. I did find my sleeping bag elsewhere and felt a little silly for accusing her of stealing my sleeping bag, mine was black and hers turned out to be blue.

 

 

Magical Logs

Dream Setting:

A magical land

My Dream:

I was sitting in my room one day and my shelf started jiggling. The top of it soon filled with logs. I thought this was very strange and must have been magical. Like any curious human I decided to climb to the top of the shelf to look at the logs and see where they came from. When I go to the top the world around me disappeared and I was in a shelf in a different room. This room was also a bedroom. It was about twice as big as mine. Mine was your average room size. The magic room I was in used the shelf as a head board. I climbed down the shelf and explored the room a little. It had a closet and a dressing table. That was it. A very plain open huge room. I went outside, I am very brave, to explore the rest of the house. But there was not ‘rest of the house’. The bed room was it. It was a very pretty place, very soft and beautiful grass, tall pin trees, and flying ducks. There was a lake not far off and you could hear and see the waves lapping at the shore line. Over to my left I heard voices. There were people in this magic land and they were having a council. I joined the council which automatically made me a council woman by magical law. After the council meeting was over I headed back to the room. One of the other council women followed me and asked me where I came from. I told her the city I was from and she didn’t recognize it because we were from different worlds. She walked out of the room and I jumped into the bed to climb the shelf in hopes that I could get home the same way I came. I looked at the top of the shelf and the logs were gone. As I was thinking of how to get home I dropped something under the bed. It was a sweatshirt or something. I climbed under the bed to search for it and I found a bunch of my clothing under there. I bundled them up and pulled them from underneath the bed. When I came back up my 2 younger sisters were on the bed confused and the council woman I was talking to earlier had entered the room again. She said hello to my sisters and then left. Now I had to figure out how to get all of us back home. I decided that we all better climb the shelf and maybe the logs would come and get us. So we began climbing. This shelf was like one of those 10 feet tall, super sturdy book shelves you would find in a castle or mansion or something. I had my 2 sisters go first and I began stuffing my clothing in around them. They were shoved in the top shelf. But there was no room for me on the top shelf and that was the only magical part. The logs came and my sisters disappeared. I was left behind. This time the shelf disappeared too! I was getting ready to worry about how I was going to get back when the shelf appeared with only one of my sisters, the youngest, she said get on and I did. We were then whisked way back to my room safe and sound.

High in the Castle

Setting:

I am a princess, I am married to my real life husband. I live in a castle with my parents the King and Queen and my little brother the prince. In the last part of the dream I have a son. The King, Queen, Prince, and my son are all dream characters.

My Dream:

I was sitting with my husband and brother in the castle one evening. It was a lazy evening and we were just enjoying ourselves. We were doing what any royal family would do… whatever that is. Before long we heard some commotion coming from my brothers bed chambers. When we went to investigate we found the King and Queen locking the door from the outside. My husband and I thought that was strange because usually bed chamber doors locked from the inside… but my brother didn’t think anything of it and retired to his bed chamber anyways. Later in the night the King and Queen entered his room to stab him with a dagger. He hid and all the noise attracted, I am guessing, some castle staff. My brother did not die and the King and Queen left.

My dream flashes forward, although I do not know how far forward. We all look the same, but I have a 5 month old son. Everyone is on good terms and all are alive. My husband and I are outside in the orchard. It was a warm sunny evening. It must have been early summer because there aren’t any fruit on the trees yet. We are enjoying the evening and playing with our son. It was all so sweet. We were laying on a blanket together just enjoying the little bundle of joy we had in our arms.

The wedding of Bread

Dream Setting:

My husband and I were invited to a wedding. The Bride and Groom are ‘dream’ characters. There were also many of our real family and friends attending the wedding.

My Dream:

My husband and I received an invitation to a wedding. When we arrived we noticed that many of our friends and family were there. We chose our seat and waited for the ceremony to start. As we were waiting we noticed that the officiant was one of my friends. I was excited to see him officiate his first wedding. The music started and the the wedding party walked down the isle. The bride begins her journey down the isle and I notice that her wedding dress was a bit unusual. It is a bright teal blue lace dress. The kind and ugly step sister would wear in the story of Cinderella. She makes it down the isle and the officiant begins. The ceremony is over in 5 minutes flat. The bride and groom head back down the isle and we all head into the reception. The reception is set up in a traditional format, round tables with the table clothes and water pitchers. Very basic and functional. The best part about the reception was that instead of getting a bag of M&M’s as a keep sake, they made these giant pastry style loaves of bread to give out. When I got mine I was so excited I ate half of it on the spot. I decided not to be a pig and saved the other half for later. I went off and mingled a bit with my mother and sisters, some friends, and said hello to the newly married couple. The evening was winding down and people were starting to leave. I decided to go back to my table and pack up my things, especially the bread. When I returned to my table I found that my loaf of pastry bread was gone! I figured that in an effort to start cleaning up the reception, somebody took my bread and wrapped it up in the kitchen for me. I am now on the hunt for my missing bread. I look in the kitchen and it is gone. I realize that I am going to have to give up on the bread and just go home. At this point I find my husband and tell him that I lost the other half of my bread and that I am sad, but I am ready to go. He responds with, “dear, I ate the other half.” I am livid. How dare he eat the other half of my bread! I was looking forward to eating it so much! I walk off, and as I did I turned to some single young ladies and grumbled to them, “that’s what you get for getting married. Someone to eat your other half of the bread.” Now it is time to go and my husband and I are leaving. As we are walking out the door someone helping with the wedding asked us if we got our bread. I explained that I had got mine and ate some, but my husband ate half of it and that he must not have gotten his. She replied with, “well it was one loaf per invitation.” Boy did I feel silly, I was mad at my husband for stealing his half of our bread.

Personal Reflection of My Dream:

I woke up feeling really silly over the situation. I also laughed at the fact that I made my self feel silly even in my dream. I have found that often times when I do something ridiculous in my dream I always end the dream on a reality check. In this case, the lady explaining how ridiculous I was being, simply by straightening out the deal with the bread. I would never react this way in real life, I just find so much humor in all of it.

Pizza Monster

Dream Setting:

Around 11pm. Starts at the pizza shop… and it is closing.

My  Dream:

My husband and I were in the pizza shop. Everyone except us had been served. My husband ordered pizza for himself, then decided to order for me as well. He doesn’t usually chose what I am going to eat for me, but I guess since the pizza shop was closing he figured it would save time. The pizza took a really long time to be served and we had to grab it and run since they were closing. I had only got to eat a little bit of it since we were on the move, we had someplace to be. I figured I would just finish my meal after the event (I have no clue what we were doing so late). In the rush of things my husband thought it would be a great idea to drive my left over pizza all the way to my mothers for safe keeping (she lives about 2 hours from us). I didn’t know where it was. I was, I guess, discombobulated about the whole thing. Finally I mentioned that I was hungry, he told me where it was. I was FURIOUS! How dare he take my pizza all the way to my mothers house so that I couldn’t eat it. I wanted it now and I threw the biggest temper tantrum a wife could throw! I was screaming at him and bawling my eyes out. I even threw in some very naughty expletives for what a stupid idea that was and how he had the nerve to order for me too!

I am pretty sure I yelled something out in my sleep… (not sure what it was, maybe even just a grunt or something) Then I woke up.

Personal Reflection: My husband is a wonderful husband and he would go out of his way to make sure that I am taken care of. Hopefully in real life he doesn’t think that taking my pizza 2 hours away is the best and most loving way to care for me. He laughed when I told him this dream and asked, “did I really take your pizza to your moms? Why would I do that? That is ridiculous.” One never knows why what happens in a dream happens.

 

Abducted by the Mob

Dream Setting:

In a city I do not know, just visiting for a while.

My Dream:

My husband and I were staying at a hotel in a city I do not recall. The hotel was nice and we really liked staying there. There was a gas station not far from the hotel and we noticed that every once in a while a women and her vehicle would go missing from the gas station. Apparently there was a mob problem. We noticed the women was missing because along with the women the mob took 2 of my motorcycles. Realizing what happened I became extremely upset and began plotting. I new that the mob guy would grab the women and whatever vehicle was near and sometimes whatever objects he wanted from the store and take off. Since nobody ever knew what happened to the women they had not caught the guy. One time at the gas station we encountered the mob leader. My husband is 6 feet and 5 inches, which is pretty tall, and he is pretty thin. The mob leader was much taller than my husband and he was skinnier too! The mob leader was wearing a bright yellow track suit and a rolling fabric wardrobe filled with basketballs. The mob leader wanted to play ball. The stakes were high, the mob leader picked a women and gagged her for the game. If he won she went with him. If he lost she was let free. Not playing wasn’t an option. You don’t say no to the mob boss in town. All his goons were packing loaded guns. So it was his men against mine. The mob boss didn’t know that I had been plotting and had a few tricks up my sleeve. I had snipers at the ready if thing didn’t go my way. The game started and it wasn’t too long before something didn’t go his way. A fowl was called on him and he didn’t agree, so he grabbed the girl and started heading off the court. My snipers were at the ready and put a shot into the basketball he was holding. As it deflated in front of his eyes he realized he did not have the upper hand. He began gathering his me to leave. He walked up to me to tell me that this was not the end and that he would be back to settle this score, but another ball in his hand popped. The sniper had taken another shot. I told him that his reign of terror was over and there would be no more women taken or hurt and there would be no more things stolen or he would have to answer to me. If he had to answer to me, it would be more than just his basketballs popping. They untied the women and left.

Gymnastics Disaster

Dream Setting:

The gymnastics center I coached at in high school and college. Ended with my at my house.

My Dream:

I was watching gymnastics practice at the old gym I used to coach at. The head coach and owner saw me and got really angry. He started screaming at me and yelling for me to get out! I ran around to the back where the beams were and the back door. I hid under the stairs. Under the stairs were a bunch of soapy bubbles. It was like a bubble bath of all bubbles. Chin high! Some of my friends that were part of the gymnastics world, one was even a coach, were playing with the bubbles. We all hid in the bubbles. While we were hiding my 2 friends turned into wooden Christmas trees. They were about 2 1/2 feet tall. I grabbed the Christmas trees and ran downstairs. I didn’t know what to do with them so I just left them downstairs at the front desk. I went to my house or rather my mothers house. After I got home I noticed that there was a message for me on facebook. It was from one of my friends that turned into a Christmas tree. He told me that he noticed how stressed I looked and how worried I was and wanted to offer me a free massage. He is licensed. Since I was already home I told him how nice it was of him to offer but I didn’t want to drive all the way back. Then I remembered that my husband had been wanting to learn more about massage so I asked him if he would be willing to give him a few pointers sometime. My friend agreed to help him out.

Vacation

Dream Setting:

At a hotel in a sunny place with my husband and sisters. At the event with my mother, my uncle, my cousin, and my father.

My Dream:

My husband and I were staying at a hotel with my 2 sisters for a church camping event. The hotel was in a small town and it was nice and sunny and warm. My sisters and I decided that we wanted to check out the pool and go for a swim. It was an outdoor pool and, since it was warm out for being 10am, we were excited to jump right in. When we got to the pool we were a little taken aback because it was clear yet murky. The water had these balls of vibrant green slimy things. They looked similar to a frog egg nest but more fluffy. We know it wasn’t a bunch of frog nests. We were looking at the green fluffy slime balls and decided not to swim in the pool. We were considering checking out the state of the hot tub when the pool staff came out to clean the pool. The employee said that they clean the pool out every week and it still looks like that at the end of the week. So I started having a conversation about what they are using to clean it and what chemicals are in the pool. I even helped them remove the slime balls. The employee turned to me and asked, “why do you know so much about pools?” I explained that I used to work at a pool and how  my in-laws also had a pool in their back yard. Once it was all clean my sisters and I went swimming. After we were done swimming we went to our church camp out event. My mother, uncle, cousin and father were there. There were of course a large number of people that came to the event as well. I would say several hundred people were there. My family members were all in different areas of the campus because they had been at different classes and such. The center of the campus was a large field and I could pick out my family members all coming from different directions to meet at a central location for the meal. We were going to eat at 2 folding tables put together with folding chairs. The tables were those 8 foot plastic kind. As I walked into the foyer of the building to meet my family I ran into a group of boys all in uniform. They were probably pre-teens. They had an adult male ordering them about. They headed upstairs and I was heading down stairs. When I got their I set my place next to my mother. My youngest sister was sitting at the end of the table. My mother was on her left. I was on her right. My other younger sister was on my mothers left and my cousin was on my right. My uncle had not arrived yet. Since there were 2 tables put together there were several seats yet to be claimed. My father arrived and decided to squeeze his place in the corner between my mother and my youngest sister. Since there wasn’t much room for him there he tried to move my youngest sister to another seat. He was very rude about it and my mother didn’t even want to sit near him. They were divorced. I asked him if he noticed that my sister was sitting there and offered him one of the other seats at the table. He still tried to squish in. I asked him what he was even doing here since he has been dead for 6 years.

Personal Facts:

My mother and father got divorced 5 years before he passed away in a motorcycle accident. When I had this dream it had literally been 6 years since his passing.
