Dreams last night...
Since I am on the subject of dreams today, I figured I should post the dreams I had last night. What I can remember of them anyway...
(behind cut for length)
Dream 1: I was sitting at my computer updating my checking account when my old landlord walked in. I asked him if we could buy the duplex we are in from him for "this" I held out some spare change I had in my pocket. (he doesn't own the place we live in now, but in my dream he did.) He thought for a second and than said okay. So I gave him the money and he left. After he left I started wondering if I needed to pay next months rent still, or if I needed to get a loan from a bank to purchase the house. Then I thought, well I shouldn't have to do anything, I just bought the place for the change, right? I was confused and wasn't sure if I really did buy the place for just that spare change. Then the landlord came back with a present for my daughter, a soft red blanket. He said he found it on sale at target and was worried about us so he bought the blanket for her. I remember thinking that my friend Michelle had just recentely purchased the exact same blanket for her, (that hasn't really happened though). I asked him why he was worried, he said it is because we just bought this place and he was worried we may be having financial trouble. I said, ok, but I only bought it because I could get it so cheap. "It's a good starter home for now, we will eventually sell it and move into a bigger place." He seemed to not pay attention but just went into my home and went to the laundry area. "What's wrong?" I asked as I was trying to figure out what he was doing. Then, "Oh, you are washing the blanket." He put the blanket in the laundry and put soap in and started the wash. Then he left. My husband came in and I was recounting to him everything that had just happened, he looked skeptical and confused.
Dream 2: I was sleeping outside in sleeping bags with my husband, daughter, and step-son. It was cold and dark. Suddenly it started raining. I got up but my husband and kids just stayed in the sleeping bags. I started looking around for a place to take shelter from the rain. My husband seemed resolved to just having to stick out the rain and deal with it. I found a small trailer that was empty and unlocked. It only had two small beds though and it was a very small trailer. I told my husband and kids to get up and come into the trailer. As they were getting up and heading toward the trailer I was trying to decide if I should have my daughter sleep in the bed with my husband and I or in a bed with my step-son, and trying to figure out another option but leaning toward having her sleep with my husband and I. Then I woke up.
Dream 3: My 1 year old nephew wanted to pretend to be "Aurthur, King of the Brittons." and was qouting Monty Python and the Holy Grail. My 5 year old daughter was confused because she never saw that movie. I started explaining to my sister and her husband why I don't think that movie is apropriate for a child that young to watch but my brother in law started getting very deffensive and insisted that they would still let him watch it. I told them my daughter isn't allowed to watch anything that is rated higher than PG and if it is PG I have to have seen it first to determine for myself if its okay for her to watch. My brother in law started talking about ratings being some kind of gimmick and he doesn't care what the rating are, he will decide what is okay for his kid to watch. I said that Monty Python movie has a lot of sexual situations in it and violence and that children at the ages of my nephew and daughter are immatating what they see on tv or what they see adults do. It turned into an uncomfortable and heated argument. I woke up feeling stressed. *note: I doubt that my sister or her husband would actually let their one year old watch that movie.
