Chase's Dream Journal: 2010 - 2019

HERE’S MY DREAM SAGA FROM 2010 THROUGH 2019:

May 24, 2010 Monday, When I awoke, I was more tired than before going to sleep. I'm feeling that way very strongly, today – more than usual. Before I awoke, I was really involved in a dream. It's quite vague, but I had three different categories that were mine, and it was something like a quiz show, and I was a participant. Some other guy was in charge of a game. At one point, it seemed that I had lost. I was mildly discouraged but not angry. Then, some change was made that I still had all three of my categories back – kind of like starting all over with a fresh start. I really sense that this is connected in some small way to my learning more and going within.

May 25, 2010 Tuesday, in a dream, I remember there were three projects I was working with and not being successful, but the number three seems to have had some similarity for both of yesterday's and today's dreams.

-----

NOTE: For a few nights, I didn't recall my dreams.

-----

June 06, 2010 Sunday, before going to sleep I had been on the internet listening to someone’s interviews. Later, between listening and sleeping – probably mostly sleeping, I decided to let my subconscious listen even when I wasn't awake. Over 12 hours later (now), I had so many dreams that it really surprised me. Most were bits and pieces but did seem to be more like little short stories.

It will be hard to type the info, but they included being on a bus after some event wanting to go to another location but seeming to be on the wrong bus with someone who was telling me that the bus would get close to where I was going.

Another dream involved my being with some gal who was holding up her money – implying that she would pay for what she was buying. I looked into the back side of the display case taking out a pastry item and maybe another food item to buy for myself. This took place at some eating place, and it was like we were both together – like very close friends.

Some guy told me he wanted me to go to a dance in another dream, but I was very reluctant. I was so shocked when he left shortly after that without saying he was leaving. This setting was at an outdoor area with other people all around. Later another guy came over to me and told me that he really liked the previous guy. I remember thinking that it was probably a one-sided interest, and I was still shocked at how he had just walked away without saying goodbye or something.

Yet, another dream was my riding a bicycle and returning to a previous home I lived in and parking it. I wondered if the bike would be safe from theft in that location. I remember riding it like I was zooming into the parking space and made a fast, tight turn without falling over. I haven't been on a bike in several years, but it didn't seem that way in the dream.

In another dream, I was outside of where I live now and walking with some other person(s) away from the complex. A guy was walking past us in the opposite direction. I teased him by saying something like: Here's a volunteer. Shockingly, he responded with a smiling nature: Yep, you got it, dude. He didn’t stop or change his direction of walking.

I just remembered another dream had something to do with either assembling or correcting things with someone else who was instructing me.

There were at least a couple more dreams that are too vague to recall like that one, but all of these were since I went to sleep this morning (after getting up a few times in between dreams). I did listen to an interviewer for a long time before I went to sleep the first time, though.

A FEW DAYS AGO, I had a dream that I was more of an observer (rather than a participant) in it. Someone was giving things away, and they seemed to be falling from the sky for people to catch. All of them were single items with the exception of one item that included 17 of those items. I remember being told or knowing that every person or even just one person could take any or all of those 17 identical items. It seemed that one guy was taking all 17 just before I awoke or changed dreams.

June 07, 2010 Monday, this one was beyond belief. In the dream some gal was giving me a necklace, and it started out with just a string (or whatever a jewel can be attached to) and the gift part was either a stone or jewel – somewhat round. I really can't describe it; so, I'll call it a stone for now, because more follows. She told me very distinctly that this necklace can only be worn if someone has given it to them.

Then, in some mysterious way, there were three stones on the string. It changes to what seems to be Halloween, because I was fully dressed in costume with those three stones now hanging loosely in netted, bright RED material. The top part of the necklace now (still in a net-type fashion) is like a choker with the netting loosely containing the stones completely surrounding them. The netting material would be similar to a hair net (as best as I can describe it) – but ALL red.

...and below the enclosed but see-through netting were the three stones. (I have no way to show that part of the necklace.) Below them, though, was more of the red netting with the front middle part hanging the lowest.

This dream was almost like telling me something about being a fashion designer. I don't think I'm ready for that, YET, but it did give me an inspiration.

There's a little bit of a mystery with the one stone that was personally given to me in the dream and later realizing there are three there. I have no idea where the other two came from – especially since she said these can only be worn by the person who has been given them. She may have given me the other two or they could have come from another person or two other people. Isn't that like a dream, though, to leave a few mysteries? Some people say they don't know if they dream in black and white or in color, but over the years (like with this dream), the color is very much there – red in this case.

June 08, 2010 Tuesday, as I was awakening this morning, I realized that I had dreamed about someone telling me: The Mad Hatter is evil and.... something about being vicious or similar. I think this may refer to Alice In Wonderland, but I don't think I ever read the story or saw the movie and asked friends about the character who apparently was good to Alice. An earlier dream may have had my childhood best friend Jerry wanting to help me – possibly from an awkward situation. He seemed younger than he would be if he were still living today but not much was spoken. Another guy may have been talking in the background and commenting about my likes/dislikes to one or more person(s) and/or to me.

-----

June 09, 2010 Wednesday, being between dreams, I recalled a structure of three tall, curved panels all closely connected to each other. I decided that I wanted to return to that dream, and as I entered dream state, I saw those same three panels and felt grateful. I couldn't recall anything before or after both of these dreams or this continuous dream with that short interruption when I was partly awake.

-----

June 10, 2010 Thursday, when I awoke, I could only remember part of one dream of being only an observer of a bus driver who was being questioned by a couple of police officers. This took place outside of the bus, and it wasn't a bus that involved me at all. Someone who doesn't drive a bus was who I was thinking it would be nice if he was that person. I was quite surprised that I thought that way in the dream. The day before this, IN REAL LIFE, while I was waiting for a bus, someone was being questioned by two police officers and taken away; so, this may have had something to do with part of my dream.

-----

June 11, 2010 Friday, in my first dream, I was clutching a really big fish and finally set it down. I kept asking others to help me find some water for the fish but to no avail. I was feeling really angry that nobody would help me. After a gap, there were many identical items in the freezer all white with the exception of three that were dark colored. After another gap, somebody told me that I shouldn't keep outdated items. I was either giving away the items from the freezer or selling them and eventually got rid of all of them. After being awake briefly, I either said or heard the very first part of the Lord's Prayer. It was very clear and yet I knew I was asleep when I heard it, and then I seemed to slip back into the previous dream.

In the next dream, I was in my car and a friend was getting out of it but standing on the widow area or the top of the car as he was getting ready to leave. Some guys were walking by and one said: Tall boy in a very condescending manner. I didn't realize what was happening, but he mooned them (it's rather funny now). After the incident, he cried and apologized to me. I told him that they deserved it and that he had done nothing wrong. In the next dream, I watched a friend drive away as he told me that he was only leaving for a little while. Some gal told me that she needed to go into his house, and I was feeling a little uneasy but knew that she was serious. I thought the front door was locked, but when I turned the knob, it opened. After entering, it was so strange, because other people were already inside. The dream either changed or stayed at the same location with even more people there – in a party-type atmosphere.

-----

June 12, 2010 Saturday, the only dream that seemed to come through was getting to see a close female friend. She was smiling and looked quite radiant; she went to Heaven on May 30th, and today is her memorial service in real life.

-----

June 13, 2010 Sunday, I dreamed of hearing someone instructing me with a bold and positive statement that was something like: You are who you are. Later, I was walking and there were other people in the way or I was in their way and it was confusing for me to know how to get to wherever I was going. After a gap, I had parked my car and was walking across a mountain-type area with other people around. One guy who I didn't know teased me by asking if I had my makeup with me. I said that I did, and he smirked. I explained to him when I wore makeup – that it wasn't my regular thing to do.

As I got to the end of that area, I wondered if there was a big drop off or if it sloped like the way I had gone up. I was watching other people looking at that area to see what they would do. Eventually, I decided to return the way I arrived but was on some type of escalator and talking with whoever was operating it.

In a later dream, I was at the original place where I went to meetings, and things were being sorted and given away. I was given some things that were like posters. One of them startled me, because on the bottom right front corner was an inscription that appeared to be in error. This took place outside of the front door. Later, I was around the back-door area and realized others were gathering for a meal inside that part of the building (different from the way it used to be). I couldn't recall details of another dream, but directions were being given and quite detailed but very vague.

-----

June 14, 2010 Monday, my first dream was inside a department store and wanting to check the price and information for a gray or tan jacket. The sales clerk was a black man and he mentioned something about it being a dollar item but seemed to be talking more to another clerk rather than to me. I asked him what he had said about the jacket but didn't get an answer while he was telling about other details regarding the jacket.

I commented kindly about his service but also mentioned that he hadn't answered my question and left the store. I was thinking that I had two similar type jackets at home, but I still wanted to check the price; so, I went back and there was only one jacket with many other items. I never did find out what it cost or finish this dream completely.

After a gap, I was talking on a walky-talky type of device and told two other people to come back for me, because I would still be waiting. A different clerk said something over distance in question about it. I responded and it concerned where I'd live and consider possibly my maternal grandma's house. Dream switched to her house and while cleaning or such, I thought of a spider and felt very grateful that there probably wouldn't be one.

I noticed that the back door was open and closed it; it was dusk, because I noticed a neighbor's shack (not a full house) had his inside light on and the blinds at the door seemed like someone was peeking through one of the bottom slats, but I was walking away from the doorway and then it was like seeing him in his house reading something while sitting in a chair, and I wasn't in his house.

A weather change may have occurred, because I was checking another part of the house – a corner area that seemed to have part of it twisted. I was able to twist it back to possibly it's correct position, but before I was able to check for accuracy, a kitten tickled me with a thread or light wire to get my attention to get him out of the ceiling area. This is so funny, because I wouldn't do this, but I seemed to cough or blow air into the kitten's face, and someone else was watching the kitten and me during this part of the dream and then it ended or switched to something I can't recall.

-----

June 15, 2010 Tuesday, I'm only able to recall that my first dream had something to do with talking with my brother, and it seemed to be pleasant and/or informative but no details. After a very brief gap with vivid details of my being extremely thirsty, I dreamed that I went to my refrigerator to get some cola (something I haven't kept in there in a very long time). I kept drinking cola until that dream ended. I am thirsty today, too, in my awakened state.

-----

June 18, 2010 Friday, I saw six black plastic pieces that were two groups of three above and below but after a gap, there were 2-sided yellow and red ones of a different quantity. Very vividly, the next partial dream had a clock face that was showing an opposite time with the hands reversed and then seemed to change back to the correct time after looking away and back at it and I was feeling so relieved about it not being the other time – possibly 4:50pm was showing instead of 10:20am being the correct time. After a pause, I audibly heard the name Lorlene (not knowing anyone by that name). Someone else (unknown) was speaking about telling her something. In a later dream, I was looking through a cigarette carton with blank spacing in the middle of it and having concern of too much missing.

-----

June 19, 2010 Saturday, some unknown person was giving a command to some people outside. One of the words was monkey – like: No monkeying around or no monkey business. It was quite clear in the dream but it wasn't after awakening. In a later dream, there were at least two others gathered around a big table. I was facing a family friend (Bob's mom) and my mom was sitting to the left of me. There may have been one other person to my right, but I couldn't tell for sure. The family friend told mom that if she exercised, she would lose weight. Both women were much younger (in there 20's or a tad older).

Mom stood up and with her finger pointing and circling her stomach, she asked her if she could lose that (otherwise she was very thin – like she had always been). (During the dream, it didn't register to me that mom was probably pregnant in that dream. The other person I couldn't see may have been another family friend.)

Another dream that had other parts to it and that I returned to dreaming once or more after short gaps of awakening involved taxes. I was feeling very upset and discouraged at the possibility of items having a tax to pay for them that had already been taxed and the items were inferior or worthless. There was a box of assorted small items – one resembled part of a window knob. I was contemplating how to resolve the cost error without having to waste too much time in doing it.

-----

June 21, 2010 Monday, the only thing I could recall after waking up was that someone was putting a slogan on a sign. The words were familiar and very clear in the dream, but now I can't remember what was being quoted. There were several words and I think when the sign was completed that one word was on a line below the other words – somewhat of a success. After a gap and/or a continuation of the dream with the same scenario, all of the words just wouldn't all fit into one line of text (what was desired) and it wasn't going to be completed and the dream ended with incomplete word(s) on the sign.

-----

June 22, 2010 Tuesday, (Over the years since the early 1970's, I have had dreams about going back to work where I did back then at Circle K, but they are always somewhat vaguely unfamiliar – like being new and confused about being there.) At the beginning of this dream, I discovered three damaged items but can't recall what they were or what was wrong with them.

The number being three was something very vivid at the time and in the dream. There was a lot of litter out in the parking area, and I was concerned about it needing attention. I also had great concern about the walk-in coolers being stocked fully and if my shift that was following a really busy shift would be staffed with more than just me working. There were three or more workers in this part of the dream.

Two of the gals and I were talking about something and after hugging one, the other said she felt left out; so, I hugged her and we all chuckled about it. Either before or after this, one of the gals was telling me about sweaters and how awful they fit and changed her appearance, and I was talking like I knew all about sweaters. I said I fully understood and something about my shoulders would really shrug in a certain kind of sweater and that sweaters aren't any good for people's appearance from the way they pull them down.

It was such a relief to awaken and know I wasn't having to work that upcoming shift and all of the problems that could be waiting for me. Those problems would have involved: cleaning, stocking the cooler, helping customers, and probably working alone in such a busy store. Also, I didn’t have to worry about whatever needed to be done with those damaged items.

-----

June 24, 2010 Thursday, the only thing I can recall is that I was dreaming about water (like drinking water or the cost involved but unsure). I woke up thirsty.

-----

June 25, 2010 Friday, as I was awaking, one or more times, I recalled the name of a city (two or three words) and know that I'm not familiar with that city. I planned to remember that name, but since I didn't write it down promptly, I can't remember the name.

-----

June 27, 2010 Sunday, a lot of action was happening in my dreams but I can't recall much of the details. One was a battlefield situation and I was in the middle of my group but it started out mostly as an experiment rather than an actual battle. The last dream pertained to a big movie title (possibly Gone with the Wind) that was part of the process I was using for transferring a movie from one media to another.

What is so strange is that one device was quite big and resembled a reel-to-reel tape recorder (in real life it couldn't play or process video information). There was great emphasis placed on the written words of the movie title and seemed to stand out in the dream as being very important. A dream that preceded this dream involved lots of discussion and maybe even arguing or debate and other people were being quite active in the scenario.

-----

June 28, 2010 Monday, I dreamed that a close friend and I were talking and another gal was with us; I think my mom may have been the other person, but she was mostly only listening. I was talking about my past relationships and how bad they were and I commented to my friend that she remembers my bad times and knew what I was talking about from those experiences. My friend was so comforting and very confident. She said that she had only one troubling relationship and that she learned from it many years ago and never had another bad experience.

In a continuation or the next dream, I was talking as I was attempting to clean up some bread crumbs that were on the floor next to a wall. I was aware that I had carried something (like a big dead fish) into the adjoining room (probably the kitchen) not too long before that. When I noticed the ants in with the crumbs, I commented that those ants had to be alive inside whatever I had brought in prior to that, and they seemed to be multiplying as I was trying to clean up the crumbs. Either before or after this dream, I saw Joe. I don't recall of any conversation or interaction other than he was smiling and seemed to be contented – mostly seeing only his face. (When I saw this friend a few hours later in real life, he had been having plumbing and other problems that he was fixing.)

-----

June 29, 2010 Tuesday, I was surprised that I was able to return
