Another Beginning

With the start of the new week, I have to say I have mixed emotions. I feel good but edgy at the same time. I had a scary dream last night. It was nightime and I remember looking out of the window into the back yard (at my mother's house) where I saw a blue mini-van turning around. Then I saw another car, a black one, trying to pull in as well. In the next instance I remember seeing a long sharp knife. I raced to the phone to call 911 but the call would not connect every time I tried dialing for help. I remember grabbing my cell phone to call while going back to the window to look to see what was going on. Then I remember seeing blood but I wasn't sure who exactly was hurt. I had a second dream after that. I was in a store shopping with someone and I picked up a skirt. The price tag was marked $172 down from the original price of $272. My friend told me to try it on and I told her I shouldn't but she insisted. I remember the skirt being black and resembled a Betsey Johnson design. When I went into the dressing room, it had all of these pieces of jewelry racks all over the place. There was a mere curtain for privacy in the small room. I remember other women coming into the space to try on their items. We all joked about how small the space was. I woke up.

Two completely different dreams on the same night. In one I was scared, the other having fun. I wonder if there is really any reality or true meaning in dreams. The first one I definitely would not want to be real. I can't really attach any meaning to them because they don't make sense. It is the second time I have had a dream where calling 911 was non-productive. Maybe I don't have faith that if something was happening anyone would be there to help. Also, yesterday I was talking about needing to buy boots just in case we get some major snow this season. I don't own any right now so maybe that's why part of the second dream involved shopping. Who knows if these dreams are even supposed to make sense or merit interpretation. It's the beginning of a new week so i'm going to look forward to the rest of the week and put this latest nightmare behind me. I already got two great surprise gifts and I am looking forward to the gift to mayelf buying myself some balloons!
