Laundry and Stairs
#1
I didn't have any earth-shattering dream and it doesn't seem to be about humanity but Chris said to enter every dream so here it goes...
Driving in truck with my mom and we had certain errands on our list. We are talking and all of a sudden she screams "laundry" because we had forgotten to bring the laundry with us that we were going to take to the LaundryMat to wash. I quickly pull off on the right side of the road. As I turn the car around there is so much traffic that I don"t know how I am going to cross traffic and make it to the other side of the street. I notice that now someone in another car is supposed to be following me (I don"t know if it is my mom or someone else). She is in her car behind me and she is waiting for me to pull out. I tell her that once I pull out, I am going to hold traffic up on the other side of the street by slowing down so that she can make it across the street too by pulling out in front of me. I am finally able to cross traffic but when I do, I forget to stop to let her go in front of me so instead,I pull off the road on the right side of the street to wait for her.
(I don"t recall if the dreams are linked and if the woman I dreamt of next is the same woman who was following me in a car or if it is a different woman entirely)
In some woman"s house that is married and is my friend. I have been staying with her to help her out. She is also pregnant. We had been in the city for dinner and just get back to her house. I tell her that I don"t know if she wants me to keep living with them and help her through the birth of the baby or if she thinks she is OK and doesn't need any help so I can move back into my house. I tell her that I can either stay with her and help her or I can move back into my house and that it is her decision. We get to their house and are upstairs and she walks downstairs. I am packing and decide to leave and I go hug her husband bye (innocently) but as soon as I reach for him and before I even touch him, he thinks I am hitting on him and he throws me down the stairs. I am insisting that it was not that at all and am so hurt that I have spent all this time helping out this family only to have them believe that I was capable of such a thing. I spend the rest of the dream trying crying and telling them how hurt I was.

Parts of this dream manifested in metaphoric ways.
Metaphoric part for being thrown down the stairs...The kids and I had taken in a baby goat and she had been living with us. At night we put her in a little dog cage upstairs so she is safe from predators. Somehow she had gotten out of her cage and my mom (who had been upstairs with my dad) came down the stairs to tell me that she was upstairs with dad and I needed to get her. I hear my dad yelling trying to get the goat down the stairs. As I round the corner, I see dad with the goat in his arms trying to carry her down the stairs, but she starts squirming and falls out of his arms and it looks like he literally threw her down the stairs as she went plummeting. She cried for a minute and shook her head around a few times and was not worse for wear (thankfully). But it appears that I was the goat in my dreams.
Last weekend, we had a last minute plan to meet up with family in the city. We were supposed to just hang out at the hotel all day but we decided to take the kids to the park. When doing so, I was the lead car and everyone was following me since they were unfamiliar with the area. I found myself, on the right side of the road needing to cross 4 lanes of traffic and make a U turn in order to get to the interstate and my family behind me helped by turning into each lane to hold up traffic and waited for me to turn in after them. As this was happening, my oldest daughter looked over at me and said, "mommy, didn"t this happen in your dream." Yes, sweetheart, it did.
The laundry wasn"t such an important part of the dream, but it might be note worthy that we haven"t been able to do laundry here the past few days because the iron in the water is all stirred up in the well from the rain and it made the water orange, so I currently have an entire truck full of laundry that we were supposed to do yesterday, but wound up running out of time. So in essence, I did forget the laundry as it is still sitting there and I did dream that I would have laundry in the truck before I needed to have laundry in the truck. Hopefully, I"ll get to the laundry today when I get to town…
