I was in a house where there was a room that was very leaky.  The rain water literally just poured into it.  I went upstairs to a bedroom where my friend Brenda's sons were sleeping.  When I went in I realized that her youngest wasn't actually sleeping.  I started talking to him and playing with him.  He was shy at first but eventually was laughing with me. 

Then I went back downstairs and there were other families there.  I was with a show that was going to redo their house.  I was not looking forward to all the work we had to do.

I was in bed at my house.  My neighbor was painting his house yellow and kids were playing soccer in park.  I wondering why no one was at school or work.

I got in a van with some friends to drive them somewhere that was an hour away.  when we were half way there i realized i had left the twins in their cribs alone!  I was horrified and knew I couldn't tell them we had to go back or else I'd have to admit what I had done.  So we continued driving.  We eventually came to a point where the road wasn't really a road anymore so the van couldn't drive on it.  We ended up getting out and making our way around the cliffs that went down into the ocean.  There were points where I even had to go in the water to get by.  We made it and ended up back in the van and drove up to a house in the woods.

Once we got to the house we went in.  Then it turns out the woman who's house it was was a bad person and trying to get us to become part of a cult or something.  I kept trying to get away but somehow always ended up back in the house.  I would jump out the window but wouldn't be able to get very far.  I eventually made it back to the car.  I got in and tried to drive away but there were people everywhere.  I just wanted to get home to the twins.  Eventually I just started running.  There were other girls running with me.  We were following a road that again turned into nothing and we had to try to climb on a cliff to get around.  We all ended up falling really far into the water.

More weirdness

I was driving in our wrangler down a street. I parked and got out. I went to go into a restaurant. The sign outside was a huge wooden carved sign that actually had the date on it. So I said to my friend Marc "Do they buy a new sign for every day??" He said yes and that the 99 restaurant did it too (he used to work there). I thought that was very strange and such a waste of money.

I finally went inside to a banquet room. It was some sort of thank you lunch. I was sitting at a table with my mother. I noticed my old friend from high school sitting at another table with his wife. I hadn't seen him since high school so I was nervous to see him. I waited until he spotted me to say anything. While I was waiting I went up to a table to get some coffee. Somehow I spilled coffee all over my hands and legs. My hands were burnt and in a lot of pain. I sat back down at the table. I peaked over at my friend just as he was looking at me with a look of surprise on his face. We both got up and ran to hug each other. It was SO strange because then he started dancing with me and telling me he loved me.

The next part of the dream took place in my friend Marc and Kristin's house (although it was NOTHING like their house). I had never been there before because they had just moved in. It was massive and on the ocean. There was a room out the back that was just enormous and open to the outside. I was a little freaked out by what had happened at the restaurant so I wanted a moment to myself to quietly think about things. I made my way to a private place and the minute I sat down, my mother came running up to me. She said "what are you doing?? we have to go!!" So I got up and left.

Falling house

I was in the third floor of a triple decker apartment building. I was with my 19 month old son and daughter and a bunch of people I didn't kow. All of a sudden I felt the building starting to topple over. I was oddly calm about it and didn't panic at all. I woke up out of breath.

UGH!

I was in an apartment where I was living with an ex-boyfriend. He had started acting a little strange and then he had a costume on. I knew it was past Halloween so I asked him what he was doing. He got all shy and told me that he was the lead in a play. The first show had been the night before. I was so hurt that he had been lying to me all that time. The apartment gradually kept filling with other people who aparently lived there too. I kept wanting to use my computer but everytime I went to use it someone else was on it. I remember sitting at a table looking through all of his things to see what else he was lying about. I looked out the window and saw my 19 month old daughter playing. Then my husband was there trying to convince me that I should be with him.

I was walking on the edge of water with a bunch of people I didn't know when a tornado started to form. The wind became so strong it lifted me right off my feet and I landed in the water. I swam to shore and people helped me get out. We then tried to run away from the tornado. We turned a corner and ended up in a place where our only option was to go in the water. I swam across the water back to another part of the shore. Right as I walked onto land a massive tree crackled and started to fall at me. I was able to get out of the way. I waited for everyone else to make it to where I was. We then started running again. We ran down a path where we saw something really scary. I believe it was Mickey Mouse statues but they were all painted creepy looking. We all screamed and ran back down the path as the ground opened up and this structure emerged. We ended up being trapped on this thing. Everyone was trapped in individual pods. I somehow got loose and tried to run for help. I saw someone's mother who was in a wheelchair. I was begging for help so she said she would help. So I followed her. She took me to a house where I was obviously a prisoner. I was brought to a couch where my ex-boyfriend (but he was my boyfriend in the dream) was sitting with his mother and a couple of other people but they were all drugged up so he could keep them in line. He was acting like we didn't know each other and introduced me to his mother. I wanted to say that we had met before but I didn't. Then his mother saw another girl in the room and thought that she was his current girlfriend. He told her she wasn't but I was so bitter because he wasn't telling her that *I* was his girlfriend and that she had met me many years ago. But I realized at that point that he was completely psycho and it just wasn't worth arguing.

Wedding nightmare

Background: I had this dream after BIL's wedding where my 18 month old twins had meltdowns in the church and I had to leave with them and missed the wedding. I was not in the wedding party.

Dream: I was in the wedding party of BIL's wedding. We were all dressed and lined up ready to go down some stairs and walk down the aisle. There were no flowers for me to carry so I was wondering what I was going to do with my hands. As we were waiting my son started to cry so I figured I'd carry him down the aisle with me and solve the issue of what to do with my hands. Then my daughter started crying so I said fine, I'll carry both of them. Right as we were about to go down the stairs I had to put them down to check myself in the bathroom mirror. When I came back I couldn't find them. I went across a balcony to some rooms to look for them. I found them but they weren't in their nice clothes anymore. I was so upset and I kept yelling for people to help me get them into their clothes but everyone said it was too late and we had to go. I ended up putting their clothes on stuffed animals then I woke up.

Mother's guilt

I left my daughter in her crib at home alone and went for a bike ride with my son. he wasn't secured in anything i was just holding onto him and he was hanging in front of the handlebars. I had to find a bathroom and somehow lost my son. I looked frantically for a long time. I was afraid I'd never see him again. Eventually I saw a large group of people standing around including police. I figured maybe they had him. They did and i went running up to him and he ran to me too. i hugged and hugged him knowing that i was in a lot of trouble for loosing track of him. deep down i knew i had been irresponsible but i played it cool. the police told me that they would wait a few days to see if they were going to press charges. they left so i started to gather our things. my mom was there all of a sudden and i was crying to her about how guilty i felt but that i had done something even worse...leaving my daughter alone at home. we had to get home before my husband because otherwise he would find my daughter home alone in her crib. my mom was not mad at me at all. she helped me pack up and rush to get back home. we beat him home and he never found out what i did

Bedroom

I was sleeping in the room I grew up in.  I woke up and was just hanging around in the room.  I started painting my nails and was talking on the phone.  Then I realized my son and daughter were crawling around in the room and I should probably make sure they weren't getting into anything they shouldn't.  Then I started painting my 13 month old daughter's nails and kept getting annoyed with her because she kept messing them up.

wedding

background: sister-in-law is getting married in a month and a half. lots of wedding plans.

dream:
It was the day of the wedding. SIL was all dressed up and ready to go. All the guests were seated in an auditorium to see the wedding. there were special seats set aside for the wedding party but no one was instructing the wedding party to sit there so they were sitting all in different places. I was not happy about this and was afraid it would ruin the wedding so I went into what seemed to be a kitchen where people were frantically working to see if I could find the person in charge. I did and she made sure the wedding party was sitting in the right place.
Then SIL did a dance on the stage by herself.

Hotel room

I was in a very large hotel room with my twins and a friend's daughter who is only 2 weeks younger than then twins. I was trying to keep an eye on them but naturally the three of them went in opposite directions. Then a whole bunch of adults showed up that I had never met before. They were all complaining about where we were all going to sleep.

Grandma's house again

My parents and my husband and kids and I went to live at my Grandmother's house. The kids were wandering all over the house and I was annoyed that no one was watching them (not sure why *I* wasn't watching them but this IS a dream). We didn't have any place for them to sleep. My daughter fell asleep in a laundry basket and then I figured I could hold my son and sleep with him.

Oh, I just realized this is another dream about me being solely responsible for the kids even though I have a lot of family around...hmmm.

Toilet

I was in a public bathroom and clogged up the toilet. Not only was it clogged but it was spurting out of the toilet and getting all over me. I was so grossed out.

Crib

I had a dream that I woke up from a nap to the sound of my daughter walking out of her room. I flew out of bed because I knew there was no way she could get out of her crib. I ran to her and scooped her up asking her how on earth she got out of her crib. I went into their room and her brother was in HER crib! The only thing I could think of was that my husband had come home while I was sleeping and moved them around.

Oprah and eggs

background 1:  I make eggs for breakfast every single day so I'm always buying eggs at the grocery store.  I'm not a freak about the quality of the eggs in the container I buy but I do quickly check to make sure none of them are broken.

background 2:  I watch Oprah maybe once every couple weeks.  I'm not obsessed with her by any means but I do find her show entertaining every once in a while.

My dream:  I had a recipe that I needed 6 eggs for.  The day I was going to the grocery store to get them was Easter so I knew it was possible for the eggs to be gone.  When I got to the egg section there were containers strewn about most of which were only half full of good eggs.  So I decided I would take eggs from different container to make one full container.  I was looking through all of them and only finding cracked or tiny or filthy dirty eggs.  I was there for a very long time trying to gather 6 good eggs.  I wasn't happy with what I got but I really had looked at all of my options and this was the best I was going to be able to do.

When I got in line, Oprah was in front of me.  I HAD to try to make conversation with her so I showed her my pathetic collection of eggs and she was very nice and commiserated with me.  There were two other black women in back of me.  They kept trying to cut in front of me to get near Oprah.  She had already arranged to pay for these ladies' groceries.  She and I continued to chat about a topic that had been on her show recently and how I wasn't happy about it.  

I had put my eggs down on the belt and the cashier rang it up with the other ladies' things.  I said "Oh no!  My eggs were with their stuff!" and Oprah said, "Don't worry about it, I got it."  She and I walked out to the parking lot together chatting the whole way.  Once we got to our cars I realized I didn't have my eggs!!!  Oprah said she'd go back in and see if they were still at the checkout.  She started literally hurdling over cars to get back to the store.  That's all I remember.

The whole dream was very strange.

Explosion

I know this dream was inspired by the couple getting married on the regis and kelly show. I watched the show and saw their story about how the woman went into a house to pick up her kids and the house blew up. They were all severely burned but all survived.

my dream:

I was in an apartment building. One with very long hallways. My husband was not my real life husband. He was a huge blonde mean guy and I could tell he was about to beat the crap out of me. I ran to get away from him and one of my babies was in the path of my exit so I scooped him/her up (I can't remember which one it was) and ran out the door. Somehow I knew he was going to blow the building up so I knew I had to get the hell out of there and there was no way I could go back in to get my other baby. I ran down the very long hallway and saw a set of twin babies sitting in the hallway all alone. I couldn't just leave them there knowing what was going to happen to them so I scooped them up and ran out carrying 3 babies.

We all made it out alive but my other baby and everyone else in the building blew up.

At Grandma's

I was at my grandmother's house where I only visit a few times a year but have been going there since I was born.
I knew both of my babies were in the house with my parents. I was walking around her yard and ended up going to her neighbor's house and going in and chatting with him for a few mintues. When I came back out, my dad was in the car with my daughter in the infant carrier (she hasn't been in that for 6 months). There was another adult in the car with him but I can't remember who it was. I asked him where they were going and he said, "The psychologist is worried about you so we need to take her away. You never want to spend any time with them. You're always asking for people to come over and watch them for you while you go to sleep."

I thought it was weird that they were only taking my daughter away. My son was still in the house. I was very upset.

water

I was in an airport/subway type place where I had just arrived for a vacation.  I was alone.

I went down the hall to a restaurant where I left my stuff at a table to save it for myself.  The windows that ran all along the tables was a view of an aquariam but you could see to the other side of it was outside and it was a lake.

I walked back down the hall to where there was a bar.  I was waiting for my 4 best girlfriends to meet me.  A guy came up to me and he was very nice so we talked and flirted.  I could tell he liked me but it didn't matter to me because I was married.  He left and then my friends came.  We chatted a little then decided to go to our own hotel rooms down another hall to get ready.

On the way I stopped in an office where I saw a lady I knew that owned a camp that I taught at 10 years ago.  I talked to her to see if she remembered me but we ended up just talking about how she knew my mother-in-law.  (In real life everyone knows my mother-in-law)

I ended up going to my room.  The wall where all the doors to the rooms were was all glass so you could see right into everyone's rooms.  I got to my glass door and opened it, went in and locked it.  I had to go down a set of stairs to get to the living area.  It was a huge place with a two story glass wall of windows looking out to a lake.  There was a kitchen and a bedroom area that were both VERY large.  This was the first time I remember being in the room but my stuff was everywhere.  I started to get changed fully aware that the wall to the hallway was all windows and that anyone that walked by could see me change.  I happened to look up and the guy I had met earlier was looking in the room.  I KNEW I had locked the door but he was able to come in anyway.  At that point he was creepy and I knew he was going to hurt me.  I don't remember anything after that.

The next thing I remember I was flying (on my own) over the lake.  I saw the camp I taught at (which was on a lake).  I ended up crashing into the water which totally creeped me out because I'm petrified of what I can't see under the water (and I hate fish).  I swam really fast to the shore to where the camp was.  No one was there so I started to walk up the road.  I could see the airport so I knew what direction I had to walk in.

met the owner of long lake camp
