What did you dream about recently?

I had a nightmare when I was having a nap. I dreamt I'd posted an innocent post here about children, but it was falsely taken as an illegal pervert thing, and the mods here tracked me down and flew to my house by having helicopter things attached to hats on their heads, and they handed me a sheet of paper to sign to prove to the courts that I didn't post anything illegal. I got really angry and wouldn't sign it due to principle and I was yelling and frustrated because of how I could be so wrongly accused of something so vulgar.

Lol I really thought it was real, I even yelled "oh why can't this be a dream?" but I was still in it so it really did feel like reality at the time. At last I woke up, completely relieved that it was just a bad dream.

Mods, please stay out of my dreams in future. :p
 
I don't often have nightmares.

Though when I do, they are almost those ones considered to be "fear of failure" scenarios...usually being late for some function like a test. Or forgetting a locker combination. Or not knowing what room I need to be in.

All a bit silly when I wake up an recall my school days were long behind me. :rolleyes:

Frustrating at times when I know I had a dream, yet cannot recall the details.
 
Since the beginning of time, most of my dreams have been about being in buildings or traveling roads. Like back roads and side roads and highways in this general area, that almost exist but not quite, but I always know where to go looking for them. Buildings with endless halls and doors and floors, such as hospitals, schools, skyscrapers, even houses of people I know. Many times it's about areas of those buildings that I was never allowed to see, such as basements, attics, stairwells, mechanical rooms. Skyscrapers are fascinating to look at, but in my dreams (and IRL) I am terrified of going up them and feeling them swaying. I am scared immobile of heights. Yet why I am not afraid of the Mackinac Bridge, even walking it most years? BTW this was long before 9/11.

Anyway, last night I dreamed of a building that I dream about probably every month for the last 9 years. My old house. It was the first place I moved to as an adult, bought it at 22, and lived there for 17 years until I got this place 9 years ago. Sometimes in my dreams I hang around the yard and start working. The woman I sold it to comes out and laughs and says "don't you remember, you don't live here anymore". Other dreams I go in when nobody is there and basically start making it my own again. One dream I was using the satellite dish, even though its not there anymore because I moved it here. One dream the woman's husband came in and said more directly "ok you win, it's yours now" and left. I have dreams of the things I thought about doing to it, like adding rooms, and being in these rooms as if I had actually built them.

The job I am at now, I started before moving into that place. I started and finished 2 marriages there, many vehicles and projects, most of my life happened there. Mostly raised my daughter there. This place is better in so many ways and I would never go back, but my life here is now in the winding down phase. Guess I can't let the old place go. Even after seeing pics of it totally remodeled into an airbnb.
 
Lately I have been waking up, couple times it was a message or a thought, get up put my house coat on go down stairs, put lights on in living room, cat on back of couch gives me strange look you again. start up my lap top find a appropriate thread on this forum, type. Go back to bed. At least if I get a message it is time stamped.
 
Today, I realized that not having a bicycle light when I needed one has been a recurring theme.
 
Different house this time. Was actually my ex father in law’s house, based on the garage layout. Never rented before, but dreamed I had been renting a house for years and was well lived in. Was in process to buy the place, ready to sign the papers on Monday. Meanwhile was in line for a triple header concert at Castle Farms in Charlevoix. But the joy was short lived when the seller made a last minute stipulation that upon buying the house, I had to move it up to Grand Marais. I was in tears because it wasn’t feasible for me to move myself or the house or commute that far or find a new job. So I called in a structural engineer and they agreed this stick built place over a basement wasn’t going anywhere. Ended up getting to stay in the house and finishing the deal. Turned the guy had only wanted to keep the property for memories of his dog that died.
 
I dreamed last night that my Mama and I were living in a little camper alone by the woods and that 2 guys were staying in the woods behind us and plotting to kill us both. In the dream, it eventually came out that my Dad was probably working with them. I have had spooky dreams like that since childhood. Sometimes I have several a week nowadays.
 
I can't remember my dreams. I'm sure I have them but they fade the minute I wake up. The harder I try to recall them the faster they fade out.

I used to have more vivid dreams when I was a child. But they have largely disappeared.
