I am living in the house where I lived when I was first married. My husband is in some kind of trouble and has been arrested. His male cousin knows where there is peppermint growing among marijuana plants. He says it is there because people can pick it and the cops won't know it is marijuana. I need peppermint, so I go there to pick it. There is also something about the library at the high school I attended.

I am walking home through the town next to the town where I grew up and I cut through a yard on First Street and over a wall. Four men chase me. One in particular, although I don't know his name. I learn somehow although I keep running that he won't press trespassing charges if I marry him. I go to a house where a female friend actually lives but someone else I know lives there. I don't know who that someone is. I call home for a ride even though I know I will catch hell. Something about poison is also involved. A man (who is actually my insurance agent) answers the phone. I tell him about being scared and he asks if I don't have some relative who is involved in insurance investigation. I say yes (my son-in-law) and I tell the man he (son-in-law) is thinking about getting insurance investigation but he is actually doing something different. The dream ends so I don't know if I get a ride home. The initials RLP come after I am awake. They are the initials of the man chasing me.

I am in college and dating a black man. (I am white). He wants to marry me. I need to think it over. Most people are nice about this but one woman is nasty and one man is nasty. Someone makes a comparison to a Muslim parent. They say a Muslim parent can tell the hospital to kill their kids and that is okay. The black man is real tall and not good looking. Just nice. I wonder how to tell my parents. I don't think they will take it too badly. The black man has freckles. He also has initials for a name but I don't remember them. He proposes in a dorm. I think about a small wedding and maybe giving popcorn to everyone.

I am in an old house with an open basement and lots of open beams. My youngest daughter falls through but got herself out before the firemen arrive. She looks sick but doesn't appear to be hurt. Just before this happened a young man came to the house. He was wearing bright blue sunglasses. I had been riding with a friend, her two sons and my son in the friend's truck. I wanted to make coffee but the pot wouldn't work and her oldest son didn't want it for some reason. I learned that her youngest son had AIDS. The old house had lots of roots under it and there was a long ways for it to fall (into the hole).

I go to visit a former neighbor woman and enter by the side door and walk in on a male guest who is in the bath tub and a boy in the bathroom. I am embarrassed and upset. They say "no problem." I leave because I feel I should have known better. A female guest in the house, who is German, says there is no need to be so embarrassed. I feel I should be because this is the second time I have done this and there is no excuse for it.

Two blue rattlesnakes are in the dream. One is a pet and is huge. The other is wild. They belong to the son of a woman I work with. The big one bites me a little and we kill it. I go back into the dream to do this. The bite is on my left thumb. The little one bites me for real. The boy's father sucks the poison out but his arm swells and hurts. Next we are in school and I ask the boy's mother who is in the back row to look up information in the first aid book. It keeps getting worse. I am sick. I wake up still aching and sick but don't hurt once I am awake.

I am going to a photo shop where I used to work. It is late at night and I am meeting Charla, a friend. Her car is halfway up the block but the building is dark. I knock at the front and no one is there. I go around to the back and am just about to go when Mike (friend) pulls up in an old green car and traps me in the corner of the building. Charla comes out. I suspect he is meeting her but we all pretend nothing is wrong. She shows me some old camera bags. One is faded red. We are now in a room and everything is dusty and dirty like it hasn't been used in a long time.

I am with a large crowd of high school kids at a party in the woods. A bad crowd comes there and the good kids hide. The bad kids find them. One of the good kids manages to get the message that they need to help some other good kids who walk by and look in through a window. A flood happens as bad things begin to happen when the bad crowd catches them. One girl's father won't save her because she isn't a virgin so it is not worth the effort. The good kids get rescued and return to school which is like a house with a big open circular staircase. I become one of the kids. I can't quite make it to the top. Then I am wrapping a package and there is not quite enough wrapping to finish. For most of the dream I am an observer - not a participant.

It is Halloween. I have a hard time getting my kids to sleep. Now we are trying to sleep and there is a disturbance outside of a neighbor's house. Some kids about 12 years old are bothering some turkeys out there. I see the turkeys are vomiting blood. I go out and demand to know what they did. I am carrying a sharp knife but I don't use it. Some younger kids give me names and say what they did. They fed soap to the turkeys. The turkeys are gone now, behind my house. The kids who did it are Tina Turner and David Cunan. (These names mean nothing to me). A woman picks up one of the kids in a car. I tell the younger kids they can't come in my house. They have to wait outside. I am very angry. I will call the police. The phone rings and it is a mother wanting to know what I plan to do. I say I will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law because of the poor turkeys. It is difficult to talk because I am so angry. I can't breathe.

I am driving home from a psychology class and I hit the wall of a restaurant and break it and a window. Sitting on the other side is some woman who was involved in a car accident I had earlier in the summer. (I didn't actually have an accident earlier. This is all in the dream.) These are the only accidents I have had in 30 years and both with the same person. I remark on that. The lady is very nice. Her husband is not bad. Another couple there is disgusted. A businesswoman I knew from my hometown is there and tries to quietly tell me not to let these people put anything over on me. She was in business 30 years and had insurance and people try to take advantage. She says this while walking down the aisle to go to the bathroom and is trying not to be obvious. The restaurant looks like a store that was in the neighborhood where I grew up. The woman I was involved in the accident with is very familiar but I can't place her. She looks something like a friend of mine with short, smooth dark hair and also reminds me of a former employer's daughter. The woman is wearing pearls.

Something about a baby buffalo being there also, but it gets through a hole in the fence outside. I am about to get out when my oldest jumps in. He is being chased by Ross. (Ross was almost like a foster child to us as he lived with us much of the time.) There is another boy with Ross. Ross should be someone we can trust. There is also a skunk in the basement that doesn't look like a skunk. It lives in a hole in the south end of the basement and I don't remember what happens to it. Ross backs my car up to the window to gas us. Then, for some reason, they all jump in the hole. They help me out. I run to the road for help as I am afraid they will hurt my son. Then I wake up.

My boyfriend is Wayne, who is actually my son's brother-in-law. I don't know if he is taking me to the prom or even what I'll wear because my clothes are packed for the move. Some old ladies walk in together to watch the prom. A young woman I actually do work with says she knows Wayne and will call him to see if he is taking me. I am thinking about work in this unknown town. Maybe I will work in a hardware store, but I want to work in a newspaper and will apply there, provided there is one. I am thinking I have a good background in that. I remember then that I left stuff in the oven. It is very dirty. I have forgotten an uncooked pumpkin pie, mixed vegetables, etc.

I am living next to a church. My refrigerator is there and I need meat. I go there and there is a party going on. I tell a person there that the refrigerator is unplugged but it is okay because I have to clean it. A friend, who is a physician, is among the guests. Carole, a friend from high school days, tells me to look at him. She says he thinks he is smart sponging off everyone. I try to quiet her. It is now like this is my house and I have decided to let the party continue. The party is going on and it appears we are celebrating a new church basement. I see a boy whom I had a crush on in the eighth grade and tell him I hadn't planned the party but I am enjoying it. His face turns very angry and he says it was okay until I said I enjoyed it. Now he doesn't like it. I try to explain and he walks away. It seems he is someone I care about or want to impress. Now things start to go wrong. He begins making fun of people there and pointing out why they are bad. Some girl gets caught in an apparatus that folds out from the wall and it appears her chest will be crushed. We call an ambulance. Next we are home and my husband can't understand why I am angry about the mess and the embarrassment. He goes back for something and learns different people from our old hometown have put huge amounts of money into fixing up the mess and it is going to be okay.

I am going to a graduation program in a church. It is not an actual graduation but I have a white gown that I lay over the seat because I have to go to the bathroom. The bathroom is downstairs in a dirty cellar that you get to by going down a ladder. The toilet is just a hold in the floor and everyone can see me. Kids tell me adults must use the other toilet. I go back up and finally find it but it is filthy. I think a church should have a better bathroom. I use the toilet and go back to the ceremony but all the others are now marching forward. My gown is gone and a lady tells me someone took it because I left. I am not very upset. Just disgusted. Everyone in the ceremony gets little bags of sample products as gifts at the end.

I go swimming but it is a very confined space. They decide to join me but want to go into the bigger part of the lake. One of the men is wearing blue pants. They take off their clothes and get into swim suits. We say goodbye to another male childhood friend (whose nickname was "Gut") who is standing on the dock and we jump into the water by way of a small falls which leads into the lake and we all swim together.

The newspaper where I work is moving out of a building on the highway. We are getting things out and the new owners, a couple of gay guys, show up. One lights a cigarette and I lose my voice and get an asthma attack. I leave and hear one of them making nasty remarks about me. It is dark and I am alone. I walk down a hill and see a car coming. It is Ellen, an older friend, coming to check on the progress of the building but she can go no further because the road ends. Her daughter is with her. Apparently there had been a teen place near the road and it was shut off to keep them from going any further. Ellen remarks about "not wanting to let us go further." I try to talk and gradually my voice comes back. I begin to feel like I was faking it. Then some people show up and are concerned with why Ellen can't get to the building. One is the partner of the gay guy. He remarks about being concerned over my troubles and implies his partner is a bore. He says he hopes to do something to get Ellen on her way before the other guy shows up.

I am at my parent's home talking to a female friend on the phone. I am trying to eat some hot cereal as I am very hungry but I keep getting interrupted. A lady cop who is new in town comes to the door. She has noticed as I just did that the top floor of the place where I work has been made into a free reading room for kids and she asks if anyone does anything around here that isn't free. It concerns her that no one is making any money. She is in the hall and my friend, Mary, is with her. As we speak a nurse comes and I look out and a big aircraft is flying over very low and cutting all the power lines. I am very frightened and try to hide so they can't see me. I eat my cereal even so because I am still hungry and I realize it may be a long time before I get any more.

I come home from work to my parent's house and my father (who is dead) is there. Everyone is surprised. I ask him how he got back. He doesn't know. It just happened he said. He followed his brother-in-law (who is also dead) and some others. My brother comes home and is angry for me for bringing my dad back. He thinks I should have left things alone. I try to explain that I didn't do it. My dad is sad because nobody wants him around.

I am taking care of some little girl. We are at first in a house trying to make a copy of a gas contract. I am with a friend who says she is going to work for the gas company. I question something about a "nice, gentle man or nice gentleman". The little girl is getting sick and I take her inside. Outside it is a wooded area with water. I have a large piece of wood and I am trying to place it somewhere in the water so it will stay. It is dark and I can't see. The piece of wood falls and an animal I didn't see, like a badger, snarls and comes out into the water and swims away. I go back inside.

There is a party at my house, which is a house I lived in my hometown. I am upstairs and I see a woman in a nightgown walking in the snow. She falls. Someone calls me to help. I start downstairs but am met by a woman carrying a baby. It seems she is a guest at the party. She gives me the baby and says she's not big on babies. The baby has a crooked back which I can feel under the blankets. Then suddenly I am outside and in my car and a vehicle pulls up. The driver is a man with a gun. He has my husband and son and another little boy and is holding them hostage. My son is a child in the dream. His eye's are very big and scared.

A person with a British accent is supposed to see me about something. I want to fool her so I make up a plan to use an accent. During this time a cop comes to the door with a question and I pay her "back" 25 cents for having a dog at large or some small crime. I think I have fooled the British person and he/she goes ont. Then another cop shows up with a little girl with the same problem and I pay the bail. (I don't know what the "problem" was.) by now I have forgotten about the British person and the doorbell rings and I am not putting on the accent and it is the real British person arrived to see me.

We get in a station wagon and have a hard time getting two pet deer, with the same names as my son and daughter, corralled. Finally we get them into the vehicle and we are almost all the way out when the wheel goes off one side of the road and the vehicle is stuck and the deer is about halfway out. At this point I notice my mother-in-law is cutting off a Christmas tree which is growing in the water at the end of the dock.

I am dating a friend's son and living with him although the person in the dream does not look like the person I know it is. I want to build a pool in the basement. There is a cabinet there that we need to do something to for this to happen. I tell him to do it and we will lie about whatever we did. My friend finds it and is upset and we lie and then tell the truth. She is then pleased because she was puzzled over what was done. The son is upset and shortly after this tells me this bothers him because it has permanently changed "their" feelings about him. "Their" is my friend and some man I don't recognize. I say I guess I'd better bow out of this relationship and he agrees because I am a sneak and caused a problem for him. So now I have no one and I think I will never get another boyfriend. I am a teenager in the dream.

They are traveling somewhere in a car and another woman is disapproving about this attraction. Something about two men in a foreign country being involved in a business she is in and she learns this handicapped man is also involved. That was how she found this handicapped man again. They are now somewhere in a house which seems to be in my hometown. A huge lightning storm comes up and it looks like bombs are dropping on autumn trees outside.

I barely miss them and keep going. I am next at work and the local funeral directors bring in a body in parts. I think it is Oprah Winfry but it looks like a white mannequin. Someone says they wouldn't fix it because it was a "skull hanging". A man I work with has to fix it and it smells bad. I may have to do the makeup. I know I am sleeping but I can't wake up. I think my son is in the house and he comes to the bedroom and I manage to say help me wake up and he does, but he isn't really there. That was a dream too.

I am at a church service and there is a kids play going on. I am with two of my "best friends" from grade school, Barbara and Joan. The kids are good but the boy cries and coughs and spits up a gob of mucous and it is disgusting. Next the priest is giving away stuff that belongs to Len, a neighbor of mine, who died several years ago. Len has left me a stethoscope. Other items will be on display in a nearby town but they don't belong to Len. I now have three cards with items I am to receive but I don't know what they are. My son says he has a pogo stick coming and asks if I have seen it. The only one I have seen is a brand new one in a toy box at the church and I know that isn't it. I get this mental picture of our foster son and suddenly realize he is actually there. I say hi and he smiles and I see he has had surgery on his mouth and his two front teeth are gone and the space where they were is bandaged.

In the basement we find bells on ropes from a Christmas play, rotten tomatoes and other stuff. Julie keeps the tomatoes but discovers they are rotten. Then the two girls leave. I see the helicopter in the distance and my youngest daughter, April, is hanging out the bottom. I think "oh, my God she forgot to buckle up." Soon the helicopter lands and Julie says she lost April someplace. We hear April crying. She is walking behind and is all bruised on the right side. I think it isn't too bad and then I see her top right femur which is open and bleeding and bent up like a chicken wing.

The house is a very large house, several stories high, with many rooms. Eric is not feeling well. He gets into a blue van to drive home which is a town next to my hometown. For some reason I have his ashes at my house. I am communicating with the ashes as he is driving. He sounds very ill and tells me to induce him. I do, counting back from 20, pointing out different times in his life when he was healthy and happy. He begins to feel better. Someone at the party takes the ashes and dumps them. I must find them and do so as I am midway through his trance. Then I am going upstairs to be alone and finish the induction. On the way I pass a room where my daughter, Julie, is lying down trying to get "one of the kids" to sleep. she gets up and demands to know what I'm doing with the ashes. I whisper because I don't want Eric to hear. As he is in trance I can hear music he is hearing, stuff from the 1940s, and other sounds at stages when he is supposed to be seeing the things I am suggesting. I continue with his trance, asking if he is okay. He says he is almost home now. He mentions that sometimes people ask him if he is flying he gets there so fast. Then he tells me this is the worst hypnosis he has ever heard by far. I suggest I study theory and not practice for awhile and he agrees. Then I add that since he is feeling better it was not a total loss. He reluctantly agrees as he arrives home.

At one part we have to get to the choir loft and there are no stairs. It seems I am the cause of the trouble. There is a lot of grey in the dream. There is a fight on the second floor of a building that is like a city hall. Events are going on in town at the same time. Also the fight happened as we are about to eat.

We get to my mother's house and she is taking care of my kids but she is still in bed which is in the bathroom. The kitchen is isolated from the rest of the house. The man, woman and I are talking in the kitchen and I realize he has disappeared. I suspect he is going through the rest of the house. I ask the woman where her husband is and she says she doesn't know. I go looking. My mother and the kids are still sleeping in the bathroom. She is upset with the kids and me and says she thought I was going to get an apartment. I say I am but haven't found one. The truth is I can't afford one. My son says he wants to put his bed in the bathroom. My daughter is crying. I am trying to get away to find the man and don't want to tell my mother he is in the house. We are arguing. I get away. I think the man is upstairs. My mother comes out and catches the woman going through her purse. They get into a fight. My mother is sitting on a chair and the woman is standing in front of her and I either feel my mother is going to bite this woman's breast or I see her do it. I feel a sense of danger. Still I don't know where the man is. I suspect he is in the attic. I try to call the police but 911 doesn't work. I need a police number from my town, even though I am in my hometown, and I must look it up but I am having trouble finding it.

I am investigating a case with a Jim, a male friend. WE are at a restaurant in a house. I see the wanted man once but no more. After dinner I ask Jim if we can go to dinner again to look some more. He says yes. I say I will pay for my dinner. He is waiting outside but I can't get out. He has a nice, long car. I have an ordinary car. My purse is mixed up with another woman's and at first I have more money than is mine and think someone gave me more money. Then some people block my way to the exit. Then I forget my purse again, but don't realize it until I am outside. I have a long crooked steps to climb to get back into the restaurant and I wonder if I can make it up and if Jim will wait.

I am babysitting for my parents. I don't see any kids but they are around. the house is a mess and I can't get it clean. The rooms I notice are the living room, bedroom and closet. My parents come home and yell about the mess. Jeff, a local banker, is there and evidently he was supposed to be watching the kids with me. He says he's had enough and is leaving. I insist he take some money before he leaves.

I am getting married but I am at a dentist's office first and it is getting late. A woman who is ahead of me passes out. Then the dentist takes several inmates in ahead of me. When he gets to me it is 4 p.m. and we decided on a 7 p.m. wedding. (The male dentist is also the minister). I decide to go with a minister whom I had already asked. I call my mother and my daughter to get my dress and to buy me one white carnation. Then I decide to use my artificial bouquet. Then I decide I am too tired and cancel the wedding. The dress is old and yellowed. I didn't get the dental work finished either.

My husband goes to bed and I am waiting for my old boyfriend. I go to see if the boyfriend is on the couch. He isn't. I go outside and see some kind of weird plane in the sky. It comes down and I see it is my boyfriend and another man. It is some kind of important invention. I am taking pictures of my boyfriend's father and the flash keeps falling off my camera.

I am planning a class party and one of the games is searching for an object. No one can have it at their house. They come to my house and want to practice having it there. I try to lock them out but decide to let them in. They start to search. My parents aren't home and I know I'll be in trouble. My daughter is sleeping upstairs. One other person, a female, I think, is with me. People keep coming back asking questions. I go upstairs to stop the search. Someone has gone into my daughter's room and they are in a cubby hole there, but they didn't wake her up. My daughter has a funny red hairdo that reminds me of a clown. I tell all the people they must leave now. I am not going to allow this game at my house.

I am in a train depot with my son and nephew. I tell my nephew to be sure and buy a gift for his mother. I learn the money is all gone. There is a story behind this and I am about to hear it when a huge glowing train goes by very fast and we are all looking at that when another train, an orange one, hits a vehicle on the track. The vehicle is a Bronco type thing with a snowplow. We are surprised to see my husband was in it. He gets out and is dazed. Just minutes before the crash happened he was sitting with us and was making a remark that men as well as women are good cooks.

I am in my kitchen and everything is cleared out of the cabinets. Everything in the kitchen is yellow, including the table and chairs which are the old wooden table and chairs my parents had when I was a child. I am trying to glue a dish but can't find the glue. I am in bed and holding my oldest son, who is a little boy, and telling him not to pay me anything but to buy me a present instead. He asks "like a baby buggy?" I wonder why he asked that but say it is okay if that is what he gets.

I am in the hospital in my hometown where my children were born having a baby. My friend, Alice, her cousin, Roger and others are there. Someone else is going to have a baby like a demo for a class. I have pains and the baby is about to be born. I tell Roger I don't know where it came from. Is this the Immaculate Conception? I've had a hysterectomy. I wake up with pains in my stomach.

Something about an open house in a business building. I arrive early. Denise, a child who is a friend's daughter is there. She is sitting on a chair waiting. She wants to know if I still have some money I had hidden in my bra. I do. Something to do with dimes I'm saving for school. We are early so we must wait for the events to start.

Dawn, a childhood friend, and I are going somewhere. I go to her house to get her. Her mother is cleaning and everything is outside and the inside is all washed down. I overhear someone inside talking about someone being pregnant. Dawn's mother sees me and invites me for lunch. She says she is so pleased that Bill Brown (an acquaintance) has decided to have these "RC&D" lunches in appreciation. I have a package of tacos that are like cake and she says she will use hers because they are healthier.

I am going on a picnic and call ahead to tell the people to leave the food out for us. It is blah stuff like mashed potatoes in a bowl. But I also eat lots of fresh, red peppers and I buy a string to keep in my kitchen because they will be good for my sinuses.

Is it late on a holiday (not Christmas) and I am hurrying to get to a town near my hometown to buy a last minute gift for my daughter who is a small child. The same daughter is also going with me! There is a young man about her age in the kitchen of the house as I wait. He wears a leather jacket and is short. There is also something about a gift display at a style shop in my hometown. One part of the display is blue diamond earrings, another is a white shirt. Sarah, my sister-in-law, is with me. Her family owned the style shop.
