Recurring, bothersome dream

I had been at a work function, like a team-building event, with Matt. We were supposed to put together a skit using songs and... it had to contain certain content, but for the life of me I can't recall it. Anyways, it started raining while Matt and I were on our way to a practice, but the rain was stinging, sharp and burned when it hit your skin. Then, it turned to snow.

Then I found myself driving 3 friends home (Kevin from work, and old high school friends, Wendy G and Shelly C) on the snow-covered roads. While I was driving them home, I got to thinking about where I was going to spend the night, because I didn't have a home to go to (this is where the recurrent theme starts up).

It's the holidays and I seem to have no where to stay. Once again, I am faced with the decision to stay at my bio dad's house (same one I grew up in), but unfortunately, his beyotch wife is home (and some of her family). The house is large enough to stay there, however, I don't want to be there if she is there. In this dream, my dog Holly is there because she has just been released from the vet's office after a surgery. My aunt is codger-sitting and tells me over the phone that I can bring Hol to her apartment, so that seems like the option I will be taking. After several phone calls to friends, and trying to reach Mom & Bob, this is the only option. Due to a miscommunication involving Mom, Bob, Corey and Corey's mom, Corey won't even TAKE my calls. In this dream, Corey and I are not married, nor living together and for some reason, I just don't have a home.

I know I picked up Holly from my childhood home (on the sly), but I never made it to my aunt's. The dream ended in unmeaningful details.

I don't know why I'm always dreaming about my childhood home, the fact that I can't go there when Carol is there, but there is always something pulling me there. I don't know why I have dreams that I don't have a home-connection, like my own house, or even an apartment to call my own. Maybe someone reading this can give some insight?

Thanks to Cara

Ahhh, this ought to be fun. I've been inspired by my "cousin" to start a blog. I'm hoping by doing this, I can share some thoughts, journal my dreams and blab about "stuff". Maybe I will get some good feedback from people!

My dreams are very strange, vivid, funny (sometimes I wake up laughing), sad (sometimes I wake up crying), repetitive and always interesting. Have you ever had sci-fi dreams? Dreamt of evil things that want to terrify you? Dreams of huge houses with hundreds of beds to choose from? These are just a few of the things that keep my brain busy all night long. Sometimes I wake up more tired than when I went to sleep!

My prayers go out to the survivors at Virginia Tech. This also includes the friends, family members, acquaintances, and the police, technicians, FBI and others that had to see the horror firsthand. May God give each of you peace.
