Dream

I had a dream that there was a food bank where I went to go get food as I was walking down the street to actually do groceries so I stopped in the line to actually get some food because the lady had told me that they had really good items so I found myself in a food line which I was really close in line for so I said why not as I got in it was very crowded a lot of people started to push through which was annoying I even got into an argument with some guy and he was just very aggressive so I was just let him go cause he clearly had mental health issues . i got patient and fought through. I realized when I got in, I couldnt find my cart because of the amount of people who were trying to rush through to get food. i had to request for a plastic bag or 2 . As I got inside, the first thing that I realized that there was a lot of sweets. It seemed like somebody was celebrating something. I have no clue, but what the lady had told me they were giving at the front was absolutely a lie. They didn't have that much option. Everything was sugary cakes, sugary sweets. I even realized that once I got to the front area, the lady had offered me a piece of cake for me to try. I didn't even like it. I threw it in the garbage. Then, she mentioned how they had cheesecake. I was like, okay, why not? Can I have the cheesecake? She was like, oh no, I'm saving it for someone else. Then, in my head, I'm like, why the heck would you tell me you have cheesecake and then not want to give it to me? It just didn't make sense. Anyway, after I decided to go to the donut section because I noticed that they were baking fresh donuts and I didn't mind the fresh donuts. When I went to the fresh donut section, somehow when the lady handed me a donut, the chocolate spread all over my dress and all over my legs. There was a man that was so embarrassed. He's like, oh my gosh, I'm so embarrassed for you. Then I was like, why is this guy even embarrassed when he's not the one who was poured chocolate on? It didn't make sense. He walks away without helping me and I'm looking at him like he's so dumb. Then, another woman comes up to me. She helps me clean the chocolate off my dress and my legs. She's like, what the hell is his issue? I was like, I have no idea. That was the ending of my story.

Dream

theres a little girl. we're on the ridge of a mountain. we are hungry. we hear commotion in the distance thinking its prey coming for us, only to realize we are on top of two giant things of fur. after some manipulation in the dream world we pull the fur loose and when the fur hits the ground it takes off. the white fur was wolves. the dream switches to a different landscape. ive had a dream in this house before. its modern with long hallways and lots of glass. some walls are all glass with big huge windows. its basically all glass and really high end furniture. the landscape switches again. i think im in my room at first. i cant remember exactly but i think i build something. i have all of these toys im building. i start picking up the trash in the room because a part of me thinks that's what im supposed to be doing. but then i got curious and i start looking for a name on something. i find it twice, once on an envelope, but both times i cant make out the name. then i realize im not me. im acting like someone else. someone rich. and then theres a little girl. she tells me to follow her quick! she was frustrated i was taking so long in "his" room. she takes me to hers and gives me clothes. she gives me them because she said what i was wearing (sweats and sweatshirt) is not what she wears. this makes me think i am supposed to be acting like her. she gives me an option of a color that i think is pink and then black in the same thing. i cant put the clothes on for the life of me. i eventually get the clothes on just in time for the girls mom to come check on me. she asks me how im doing etc. im putting on a good face for the mom. we eventually go outside the house. and right outside is a foot path. there are lots of people all around us. its a nice manicured area; almost park-like but not. i keep going north away from the house and the little girls pulls me aside onto this ridge where theres a fence. we hide but its just a mound of dirt and i keep slipping off the edge and the person we are hiding from sees me. theyre not in front of us but coming from behind. i try to climb the fence but i cant get any purchase. i remember i have done this before in a previous dream. i remember the technique and i get to the top. i start to go over the fence before i remember what i learned in the previous dream about how to get over to them (theres two guys - they reminded me of my brothers friends derek and someone else. i dont remember the thing i just remembered so they grab me and i start kickkng and fighting and trying to get over the fence but i cant get over. and then i wake up

Dream

I dreamed that I moved in with someone as a roommate. A former friend of mine is the person who found me the place. He was helping me clean it up. The person I moved in with was a widower, and he was neglecting the cleanliness of his home and also his child because he missed his wife so much. So me and my friend were cleaning up for him so that he could maybe feel better or do better. In the dream at first I thought he was Jewish, but he ended up also being a Muslim. So then his friends kind of just assumed that we would end up together. I started taking care of his daughter, but when she pooped her diaper, I brought her to him to do because I didn't want to deal with a poopy diaper. I kept cleaning up the trash and cleaning up the kitchen, and eventually we got it to the point where we could have people over at our apartment. Even though I was on the lease for some reason, he had me go a specific way around the back to take the trash out because he didn't want his neighbors gossiping about me there because he didn't want people to assume that I was his new wife or girlfriend.

Dream

I was driving in my husbands 2021 Chevy truck in a random state I had never been and missed my turn. Did a loop and pulled off to this random empty parking lot, it was behind a hobby lobby or old run down target department store with tons of open parking and no one around... I took Emory, my 18month old daughter out of the truck with me and we took the trash from our trip to a nearby dumpster. As I’m walking the trash bag starts to rip. Trash trails behind me, I put my daughter on the ground and off of my hip to start picking up behind myself. From what seems like all four side of me, surrounding me 3 males and 1 female all ranging in ages from 25-34 started laughing and making comments about the trash. How is belonged to the street and I was being too nice. I get to a cement median dividing the parking lot and sit down with my daughter, I’m exhausted and just trying to get to Kurt’s parents house-(Kurt is my husband). I take off my book bag and start to pull out more trash from accidental spill and by this time all four-(what looked like homeless hungry possibly jail community service members ) were hovering overtop of me digging through my trash and wanting to eat anything I had left over, Maybe a sip left of Apple Juice- Week old fries it didn’t matter. I start handing out food scraps not realizing this one young man- possibly about 26, tall (6”1) skinny white dude with dirty blonde hair comes angrily speed walking up behind me, I turn around towards starting to stand up to him. He grabs my writs so tight and in his left hand I see a small sized needle. Before I can throw him off, he stabs my Flexor Pollicis Brevis and I immediately feel a numbness all throughout my hand. He then goes behind me and stabs me with another needle in my upper left shoulder blade. I run back towards Emory whom I find sitting on the older woman’s lap- Emory is crying and foaming a blue color at the mouth. Shes not crying so I assumed the women shoved a drug pill down her mouth. I YANKED EMORY out of her arms and start smacking her on the back to get her airway unblocked. I TRY TO YELL AT THE WOMEN AND MY THROAT JUST BECOMES SO SORE AND CLOSED. We run to the truck and leave. I finally make it to the in-laws place and give Emory water to clean whatever she had in her mouth out. My right hand starts to bubble and blister. Starts bleeding. I immediately call 911 and they send cops over to start asking questions even though all I wanted was an ambulance. The whole family is sitting on the back deck of the second level of the house talking to cops when out of the left corner of the side of the house I see the guy who stabbed me with a needle with a gun running up on us all. I quickly grab Emory and run inside. Then I wake up.

Dream

I met strangers who claimed to be my brothers. We all knew our father, but I didn’t know them. We have demon transformation powers, where we turn into purple, red, or black versions of ourselves with spikes, sharp teeth, extremely rage filled and hardened skin. One of the brothers who seems to be more cruel and and hateful uses a knife on me and lacerates my skin. I told him bot to use the knife on me, and so I become angry. He attempts to slice again but I get in close and lift him by his shirt furiously telling him not to do that again. He is so angry with me constantly. As if he hates me or has disdain for me it what I do. He scares me in a way. We all transform and I fight the two of them at once. They’re demon powers are more powerful than my own and they overpower me eventually. I am introduced to more of the family a sister and an aunt. We’re all in the same space, a house with greenery and open walls, working on our own things. Cleaning, laptop whatever it is. The cruel brother says something meanspirited to no one in particular and it enrages me. I yell at him to shut up. And he comes over to me and asks me what I said. I tell him to be quiet and I don’t what to hear him speaking trash. I look him dead in the eye while saying this, my expression one if pure disdain and unyielding. Once he sees this attitude about me he smiles and accepts me. Like that was what he was waiting for. In the dream I got a sense that eventually I would become very close to these brothers, even if now I don’t know them well or even like them much.

Dream

I was at a woman's house. She had severe ocd. There was a big white cart with blue towels, clean white cups, garbage bags, and cleaning supplies. She told me that before I came in the house I had to take off my shoes and wipe my hands with a blue towel. I saw a girl hiding under the piano. I asked her what she was doing and she said "I'm not allowed in the rest of the house, only here. She doesn't want me making the house dirty". I felt sorry for her so I sat and talked to her for a while. I then went out to talk to the other guests. I passed by one man who was bottle feeding an orange kitten. I went out to the dining room and the woman with ocd came back and told me I need to wipe myself down with the blue towel before I come into the dining room so I don't spread germs. After wiping myself down, I sat and talked to 3 older women about the woman with ocd. One of the ladies told me "she has always been like this. Always wants her house to be clean and won't let anyone dirty it up". I asked her about the girl under the piano and she told me "oh thats her daughter. She thinks her own kid is dirty so she won't let her in the rest of the house". I asked the lady what to do to make the daughter feel better and she said "excuse yourself to the bathroom and take her with you. Drop a cup to distract her mom". So I dropped the clean white cup on the floor. I was in the other room before the woman with ocd could see it. I took the daughter upstairs to the bathroom. We both looked out the window and saw the night sky. There were teal and pink swirls. The sky looked like a child drew it and it was beautiful. I had the ability to zoom into the sky and look at all the stars.
