I spent all night last night, that I remember anyway, staring at a spreadsheet. Well, really the layout of an Access Database. That is what I’m working on at work, and I change code to reload the database, and then I look at the Access display to see what my work produced.

It was not good, not bad, it just was. But I really didn’t like staring at a spreadsheet all night. I do that during the day!

Another odd dream again last night. Not sure what the deal is.
I dreamed that my Husband and I had to move. I have had moving dreams like this before. We moved into this house way out on the west side, it was huge and had a long and narrow yard. Too may hills for agility, I remember thinking. My Dad visited and he wanted to secure the fence because the bottom seemed like the dogs could dig under, especially Tatum (funny she is in a dream already).

So we were looking through the house that we had bought and the south side was a normal house, but large. Big rooms, nice kitchen. As we were moving through the house we found that the north end was nicer. It had 4 kitchens and the bathroom was all granite. The TV rooms were also amazing. And it was on a circle. Like the house I lived in out in West Jordan years ago.

Eventually we were told that only half of the house was ours, but the papers we had signed said it was all ours. When we looked at the house from the outside there was definitely a difference between the south and north sides. Brick, windows, and the north side was much fancier, like a fancy hotel even.

Anyway then suddenly my husband and I are told that since we live in the house, we are now Emperor and Empress. LOL. So cool, we are okay with that. We go in the limousine and we are taken to a place where they give us oil baths and treat us special. We are able to go home afterwards but we go to the oil place a few days every week for our treatments. I don’t think the positions came with any money.
It was not a bad dream this time, thank goodness. Not all that great, but not bad, either.

I love going on vacations in the fall. My husband and I went to Maine for our honeymoon in October about 4 years ago, it was wonderful. We stayed in a B&B but I would love to check out vacation rentals instead next time. To have a little place all of our own like a home away from home. I wonder if any of them take dogs.

I know I just got back from dog camp, but the cooler weather makes me day dream of going again on a vacation and relaxing. There’s something about the fall that causes me to slow down and relax. The cooler weather gives me more patience. And I love going for slow walks in the evenings.

Ahh…

My dreams the last couple of nights have not been very good. Last night was about dog camp. I went, but my friend didn’t go with that year, and so I felt lost and I didn’t know what to do (which is silly, because I can do stuff on my own, too).

So there were lots of people and there were cabins with bunks. And I had too many dogs with me. About 5 collies or so and it was hard for me to arrange them all (ugh).

Then we went on one of the outings and it was on a boat that went on the lake. I camp at Lake Tahoe but this lake was different. It had sharks in it, and they had you watch videos of the sharks so that you knew how they behaved and to avoid them. They said a shark can eat you in three gulps, whole, and you sit in their stomach and it takes you 12 minutes to be digested and die. That was unpleasant.

So this boat trip was scary. There was lots of wind and rain, and I wanted to go home early but I was afraid of driving in the weather. So I took this boat trip instead. And the boat went up and down very rugged rivers that it was not designed for. We had to strap ourselves in with bow knots like shoe laces, in case we went under and had to release ourselves quickly. In the water with all the sharks! But some people didn’t want to wear their straps.

Of course we hit a rough patch and the boat turned upside down. There was still some air and I was freaking out, but the lady next to me said we needed to wait it out and hope the boat turns back over. It finally did right itself and the captain was up front and he was laughing. But everyone who had not strapped themselves in was gone and probably dead. The captain asked for a vote to see how many people thought that had been fun. Most everyone raised there hands. I thought about it… but then decided I did not have to agree with everyone and said no it was awful! All those people just died and probably got eaten by sharks!

I woke up feeling awful. I did flyball last night with Chase, we changed practice for this week. But still. It was an awful dream.

This was not a good dream, either, though I don’t remember much of it anymore.

There was a guy who was experimenting on people and he would cut their heads open, in half, and examine their brains. There was no pain involved but it was creepy. Then he would do some more stuff and turn them into walking dead people. Not really zombies, and he wouldn’t really kill them, he would just transform them.

And then I remember being in an open top Jeep with Tom and Diane from the 4400. We had a baby with us (not sure whose it was, Diane’s maybe) and there was another baby that we stole because it held clues to the cure for this thing that the evil experimenter guy was doing.

It was not a good dream. I dislike bad dreams. It left me with a bad feeling in the morning.

I went to bed around 10pm last night, and slept pretty well until about 4am. My stomach got upset then and I couldn’t get back to sleep. I had Hudson (smooth collie boy) on one side of me, and Levi (my own collie) on my other side.

I don’t remember dreaming last night. I do wonder if when I don’t feel well, I don’t dream well, either. Seems to be a pattern.

This dream diary is fun. I can really keep track of and look at commonalities in my dreams. I even want to blog every day, whether I dream or not, and see what influences my dreaming.

I remembered another dream! Maybe it’s just starting to come back.

This was kinda like last nights dream, it started out the same like I was in a hotel, and even at a conference. But it resembled the TV show Eureka and my ex was not there. It was a conference of very highly intelligent people.

When we were leaving, there was a man who was mostly bald, who I just took too immediately. He didn’t want to go out with me, but I persisted and got him on a date, and finally he went and had a good time. He didn’t think he had the time for a date. He thought he was too far. His work was too busy…

Actually, that is really like Episode 23 of Eureka I just watched last night.

Had an odd dream last night. Again I think it was somewhat from dog camp. I dreamed that I was on a really fun trip, but it was sorta a hotel, and I was with my ex. He was fun to be with and we had a great time. Met some other people who wanted to fool around (yeah sexually) and it sounded like fun. The dream didn’t really go there, though.

I swear it lasted all night. The part I remember most is the end and packing. We had four dogs with us (go figure) and three of them got onto the plane with the rest of the relatives. Kinda seemed similar to the last dream I blogged about.

Anyway, my ex wanted to talk to one of the big wigs. At one point he wanted a new outfit, rap type, with baggy pants, but he came back without the outfit. I was packing in a frenzy because we were going to miss our plane, and remembered to put my knitting in my carry on so I could knit on the plane. But we missed the flight. My ex’s friend he’d made was going to, then, get us on a private jet with our last dog. I think it was Levi. So we could get home.

I think I haven’t been remembering my dreams lately because I’m not feeling too well. This dream is from the night before last, I told it to my husband to help me remember.

I dreamed that I was in Idaho for a dog trial on a weekend, Saturday and Sunday. I was staying with some of my Mom’s friends who were German, and they were very close to Germany and so we would go on day trips to Germany… LOL I didn’t know Idaho was close to Germany.

At the end of the weekend I found out that the seminar I was planning on going to the following weekend was actually Tuesday and Wednesday during the week. I had to call my boss to tell her I wasn’t coming back like I’d been originally planning.

So I stayed for the Seminar and then my girlfriend and I, after it was over, got on the train with our dogs to come home. The train station was weird and kinda dirty, and I seem to remember something about water slides… maybe that was another dream. So we get back to my house and we stay in my bedroom. My bedroom has bunk beds (like dog camp, go figure) and I slept in a top bunk. And there were rescue dogs everywhere, and some other animals, too.

In the middle of the night a cat crept in through the dog door and up onto my bunk bed with me. I thought it was Littles or Phoebe at first, but upon closer inspection I found it was a stray that had gotten in the dog door. The cat got spooked and jumped down and turned into a sort of evil cat… and I had to get her out of the house!

Then switch over to people coming over to pick up their dogs I was watching.. a friend with a couple Vizlas… and some others.

It was a weird long dream. Incorporating my trip to dog camp, my friend’s staying over, traveling, and dog rescue… LOL. All things I am currently doing!

I am home from dog camp! And sleeping in my own bed is very nice, indeed. I did sleep well at camp, too, though. Last night was a bit tough with 4 new foster dogs. I’m not sure who whined, but a couple of them did. Hopefully tonight will be better.

Last night I had a couple dreams, but the memory already fades.

So let’s see… what did I dream about… ugh… crap, now I don’t remember, and I’ve had this thing up all day to see if it would come back to me!
