Grandmamma Comes to Visit and Describes Her Healing in Heaven (and Patrick Duffy on the Side)

This one started out that I was on some sort of farm, and Patrick Duffy was there. I kept thinking about him and how the thought of him having a "Patrick Duffy leg" (like Scuzzlebutt on South Park) was hilarious. After thinking about this and wanting to joke around with him about it, I decided that maybe I shouldn't, because he may be somewhat sensitive about it.

So I left him and walked up to this white farm house (while I was doing so, I passed a rabbit that was out front by the sidewalk) and climbed up the front of it to the 3rd floor and knocked on the window/door. Chris (blond nerdy guy from school) was inside, and I caught him in the corner of my eye just as I was turning around to go down to the next level. So I decided to just keep going like I hadn't seen him, and I went on down. I knocked on that door/window, and the whole same thing happened again. After I finally got back down to the main floor, I let him answer the door before I left, and we talked for a moment, although I don't remember about what.

Then I got into my car and I was driving down interstate 64 to go over to Crozet. I started up the mountain, and it was all the same as it had been before, but as I started to go back down, the road made an unfamiliar sharp turn to the right, and started going back down-- the side I had just come up! I wondered how this was going to get me there.

I then looked down at my speedometer, and I realized it was only reading about 40, so I sped up, but I realized that I was actually going the same speed as everyone else already, and so if I went much faster, I may end up speeding and getting pulled over. I realized that my speedometer was way off now, not just by the 5 mph that it is right now. So I just kept going along this new unfamiliar part of the interstate, trying not to worry about it much.

The next thing I know is that it's close to night time, and I'm outside of mom's and Pat's (step-father) house in an above ground pool that is close to the maple tree at the right of the house. My computer was up on the edge, and I was in a chat room. Josh (from Papa John's) came over and was chatting in the room, and he was wanting to chat with someone in there, and so he put out this huge message to do so. I tried helping him out with making the text look smaller. After going on with this for a little bit, Josh said this whole thing was stupid and left. I then started swimming around in the pool, and for some reason I thought about grandmamma being there. The next thing I knew was that I was up at the front porch, and mom was at the door, Grandmamma was on the porch with me, and Evylin and Edith (friends of grandmamma's from down the road) were in or around this pickup truck that was backed up to the porch. I gave grandmamma a big hug and she returned it with a tough hug herself. I was somewhat surprised.

Then, at first I was thinking that I'd have to move this heavy thing for Grandmamma, but then it turned out that she was strong enough to do it. Mom and I looked at each other in surprise, as she sat whatever she was carrying (it was either a large box filled with stuff, or it was an overstuffed chair) onto the metal glider that we had on the front porch.

Grandmamma then started talking about some of the medical procedures that she had been going through in the spiritual realm that have given her her youthful muscles back. She had all these 3-ring binders and such that had things written on them (I remember seeing CAT scan on one of them) and she was showing them to me as she was explaining what these doctors were doing to help her out. I remember thinking it kind of odd that there were doctors in the spiritual realm, but I didn't say anything about it. I ended up giving her another big hug, and she gave me another big one back, just like someone who was very strong and built might. Then she explained a little more about the procedures she went through.

I think I then woke up briefly, and after checking the clock, went back to sleep. (I did this several times during the course of this dream, I think) When I came back to the dream, she was still telling me about the procedures and the doctors there, and the stack of 3-ring binders had gotten bigger. I got down off the porch and tried dragging them out to the end of the sidewalk, but either the ones underneath kept sliding out, or most of the stack just fell over because of the wobbling down the sidewalk. Either way, I think I gave her another hug, and apologized for dumping her stuff everywhere.

Battle With Satan

I started out on some sort of vacation with my parents. We stopped off at one point close to our destination, and we were hungry, and so we ate at some sort of trailer looking thing that was a pancake restaurant.

After we were done there, the next thing I know is that I'm in some sort of big building. I think it was supposed to be something like the YMCA or something like that, because there was a pool in this big room. While I was in or around the pool, something happened to someone there, I think, like either getting hurt, or maybe even killed.

Either way, somehow we (whoever "we" was) found out that Satan had done it, and this pissed me off. I wound up somehow finding him and some of his firearms somewhere else in the building, and as I did so, we started shooting at each other. At first I was at the far end of the pool room, and there was a big wall that had grown up in there, and I was peeking over the wall every so often to shoot at him (he looked just like a normal person. No red skin or horns or tail) Most often I missed, but I think I somehow hit him one time, and he really got upset at this.

He then started coming after me, and as he got close, I was suddenly thrown into a different environment. I was in the front seat of a car, and he was in the back. We were wanting to shoot at each other, but I wasn't wanting to harm anyone else, although I'm not sure if he really cared. Eventually I think I wound up firing at him, and he blocked the bullet(s). He, in turn, fired at me. I realized I could block the bullets, too. So this started us shooting at each other hoping that we could wear each other down mentally so our "shield" would break down and one of us would finally get shot.

After our pistols ran out, we were suddenly back in the YMCA. I went into this one room that was back past the pool, and I somehow found this massive machine gun/flame thrower/rocket launcher in this room. I picked it up and gave it a practice shot, and it worked great. I was thrilled about this because I was going to blow away Satan once and for all. I peeked out the door and around the corner to my left onto a set of stairs, and there was Satan, holding a similar gun. At first I fired at him and ducked around the corner, but then I came out again, and I was curious about his gun.

He let me see it for a bit, and I tried firing it in some random directions, and it shot out shotgun shells that were supposed to explode on impact. They were purple and about 2 inches long. It didn't work very well for me because they'd never explode when they hit. I think you had to be firing at a "live" target, though. So I give him his gun back, and we start firing at each other again. I'm using the machine gun part of mine, and he has a similar feature on his. I know that we're each running around shooting at each other, and we're also each blocking the bullets from one another. I was trying to think on what I could do to catch him off guard, but I was having some trouble doing so. (I mean, this was SATAN, of course.)

Anyway, I finally meet up with him in the top of this tower or something, and I run at him, shooting at him as much as I can. Finally I'm about 4 or 5 feet away from him with my gun pointing directly at his forehead, firing away. He's firing at me at the same time, and I have my left hand up doing the blocking of the bullets (they weren't actually hitting my hand, but that was projecting my energy force out that much farther for me, and allowed me to concentrate more on where I was aiming) I could see the ripples in the skin of his forehead (although before he had been a dark haired fellow, and how he had long blond hair, and he may have been a woman at this point) from where the bullets were shooting towards and sending wind through his energy field. I remember seeing him squeeze his eyes shut, having to concentrate to keep his field steady with a great deal of difficulty. I remember thinking lightly about how I knew I could do this because I was "of God", and God always overcomes obstacles and evil.

Suddenly we were back on top of that wall that had built up over the pool, and we were each thinking about shooting each other again, but there was something going on with the pool. I don't remember what it was, but whatever it was, it wasn't very friendly. I think I remember him going in, although I knew that whatever was there couldn't hurt him because it was his anyway. I think there was also something about this thing doing something to some people, but I'm not sure what.

Soon after this, over on the same stair area that I found my gun on and tried out his, we met again, and I started firing. He was resisting the bullets as usual, and he saw that I was running out. I saw the "strip" of bullets flying in one side of the gun and out the other, and I was missing him with each one. Then, just about the time that my bullets ran out, he thought he had me, but then I remembered about the flame thrower feature, and so just as my bullets ran out, I reached my thumb down (it was a thumb button to activate it) and pressed the button. All of a sudden this huge flame shot out of the barrel of the gun, and since he wasn't expecting it at all, I believe he ended up as toast, although I'm not so completely sure.

The next thing I know is that I'm with my family again, and we're heading home, and we decide to stop at the same pancake trailer place to eat. To our surprise, it's no longer there. The other buildings around are the same, but the pancake hut was gone. We were somewhat disappointed, and I guess we ended up going on our way without pancakes for breakfast.

The Raging Storm

I started out at Mike's (former step-father) house in my old room downstairs. Pat (step-father) was there and talking about the earth changes, and he was saying that he had a hotel room on an island up north that he had reserved for when the changes occur, and that I was welcome to come up and stay in there. I told him that Savannah was supposed to be safe, and he said that was fine, and I should just probably stay here. He also said something about after it was all over with, that I could name the island (Wilmington Island, which I live on.) after myself. I was thinking that was an okay idea.

Then as we're in my room with mom and Eric and Matthew (brothers), some bad weather starts up outside. At first it's just a lot of wind and rain, but then we look out the window towards the Weyers Cave/Pleasant Valley Church area, and mom says that there's a tornado starting up. I look out, and sure enough, I see it beginning. It seemed kind of weak, and it was heading in our direction. It started to get a little stronger, and become a bit of a darker shade of gray-blue. It came over just outside of the window and was by the little maple tree. It then started to weaken a bit more, and almost looked like it was going to be done a couple of times, and then it went over right on top of the tree and it almost made the tree explode. The sudden shock of the strong wind on the tree shot off most of the leaves.

As it was there, I started thinking about sucking energy out of it to make it dissipate, and then I thought that if I did that, it might make it come towards me, so I decided to bombard it with positive energy to make it quit. At the same time, mom was putting her own energy into it to try to get it to pass by the house and go away, instead of just trying to make it stop. Eventually it just stopped, I think.

I then start talking to my family about how good these new SoBe drinks are, and they give me money to go to the store to get one for them to split and try. I go outside, and everything is clear in our immediate area, but down at grandmamma's and over at Weyers Cave, it's just a solid sheet of opaque gray, and so I decided not to venture it for now. I went into the living room (the room that was the living room before we added on) and mom and Mike were there on the couch.

I then go back inside and into my room again, and Eric is still in there, and he's watching the storm down past grandmamma's house. Just as I get in there, I see a huge bolt of lightning, and I go over to the window. I look up and I see tiny sparks of lightning flowing out like ripples along the surface of the clouds. As they come right over us, I look over at Eric and say "Here it goes!" and the loud peal of thunder shook the house. We both thought this was kind of cool.

Then I looked back out again, and I saw this huge black cloud extending down from the clouds above, almost like an explosion had taken place. I saw it was sweeping in our direction, although I wasn't sure what was happening with it. I then realized it really was moving towards us, and to stay there at the window could prove to be fatal. I ran out of the room and started yelling about it, and mom and Mike and Matthew all got off the sofa and hid behind a coffee table on the right side of the room (the sofa was on the wall that the new part had been built on to, and the coffee table was just around the corner of the opening into that room, under where the thermostat used to be)

I realized Eric hadn't come out yet, and I started to run back to get him, but he was already running out of the room. I grabbed onto him and helped him hide behind the others, and I then got blankets and hurried and threw them over everyone. When this "explosion" hit the house, the house shook violently, and there was a loud thunderous noise. After a short time, it quit.

I got up and looked out of the window that looks out onto the back porch, and I see these big balls of fire/lava floating around outside. They're kind of slowly heading in the same direction as the rest of the explosion. By this time, everyone else has gotten up, and I walk over to mom. She was by the doorway that goes into the new addition on the house, and as I look in, I see one of those lava balls floating around in there. I asked what those things were, and mom told me they were files. (although I knew that she meant spirits) I yelled "How did that get in here?!?" and I watched it as it came to rest on the floor by the TV area, and I see it start to deflate a little. I realized it's just a shell of cooling lava with air inside of it, and that was how it was floating around. Mom said "Because I knows it" (with the 's' on knows) She said that it's mother (Grandmamma) and I heard a raspy version of grandmamma's voice repeat the word "mother", and then it said "Cheryl".

It started to roll towards me and mom, and so we pull a folding paper like door shut over the opening to the new part of the house, and I see that there's a 6 inch gap at the bottom of the door. I take up my two sided blue blanket and stuff it under the door to keep this thing from getting in. I start wondering if it will catch my blanket on fire, and I think mom said that it won't, but I end up waking up right then.

Love and War at Pleasant Valley Church

The entire dream took place in and around Pleasant Valley Church. It started out that I was down in the basement (where the youth and Jr. High rooms are) and I came across Steven (a mentally challenged boy from church). He was much younger than he actually is now, and I started talking to him. Soon after, I think I was going to leave to go to Sunday School or a bible study (even though it felt like it was the afternoon/evening time) and he started crying. I asked him what was wrong, and he said that nobody loved him. I felt great pity for him and took him up in my arms and told him that I loved him. I held him there for a while as he cried.

Then after a little bit I realized that I was going to be late to my class or wherever I was going, and so I told him that I needed to go for a little bit, but I'd be back pretty soon. I don't think he wanted me to go, but we finally decided that he could wait for me at the steps that go down into the basement. At first I detached part of the ceiling to see if he could fit safely up in there, but the area was too small for him, so that was when he decided to just wait on the stairs. After I bade him goodbye for a little bit, I went down to the youth room and went in.

I think I actually ended up being one of the first ones there, and so I took a seat back in the back side of the room, and soon after several others showed up. Jerry (father of Jamie, a girl from school) was there, and so was Carrie (girl from school and church), I think, but those were really the only familiar faces that I saw there.

Jerry was leading the class, I believe, but not a whole lot really went on, and so after a little bit we were done, and we left. I went back out to the stairs, and Steven was still there. He was doing better now, and he conveyed the feeling (although I don't think that he actually spoke it) that he would be okay if I didn't stick right there with him. I think I had him to come upstairs with me anyway, and there were lots of people up there. He ended up going off somewhere, and I don't think I saw him again in this dream.

I think the next place I went was to the Fellowship Hall. They were having some sort of big meal in there, but I don't know what they had to eat. I think I caught the tail end of it, because some guy that I knew (although I can't think of his name right off hand) was cleaning the silverware. I talked to him for a moment, and then I think I found Natalie (from Papa John's) in there somewhere. I was very happy to see her, and I offered to drive her or walk her home. She said okay, and we went out to the parking lot.

There weren't as many cars as there were people that I had seen inside, and she was walking towards this old dark blue station wagon that reminded me somewhat of the old Peugeot that we used to have. Again I offered to drive her home, but it turned out that this was her car that we were walking to. When we got there, we decided to do something, but I can't remember what the decision was. So we ended up walking/running down by the little narrow driveway that led from the back of the parking lot to the side road by the custodian's house.

After this, the next thing that I know is that we were back inside the church, and I was going down into the Jr. High room, although there was something major going on in there. As I went in, I saw that the room was no longer a room (and I think I also noticed that Natalie was no longer there) but that the "far" wall from the door had been blown away, and it turned out that from there we were on a huge cliff of some sort. It was now night time out, and there was some sort of battle going on. It seems like I could hear explosions and stuff in the distance, but I'm not sure. I saw this sphere looking thing that I think was supposed to be some sort of "evil" thing that needed to be killed before it "got us", and so I started messing around with some of the "weapons" laying around.

The first thing I messed with was a bunch of what looked like blowgun darts, but they didn't go in a blowgun. You were supposed to stick them into the pores in the palm of your hand and between your fingers, and so as I did this, I wound up with at least 30 needles sticking out of my left hand. I then "flung" them (it's about the best that I can figure that I did with them) and tried to hit the sphere thing that was now heading towards me. I got it some, but not very well. Then I picked up this little thing that was like a cross between a short straw and a green bean pod, and I put it up to my mouth and blew. A couple of black seeds shot out, and I knew that there were many more in there. I hit the sphere with those, but it didn't stop it. It was only about 7 or 8 feet away now, and a little off to my right. I blew again, and I just kept blowing out in a single long breath. The number 15 comes to mind, but I can't remember if I blew out 15 seeds in rapid fire, or if I blew for 15 seconds. Either way, I got this thing that was coming after me.

I then realized that some girl/woman was fighting with me. She was built a little big, and she had very dark brown (almost black) hair that was curly and cut to the top of her neck. She had been down over the side of the cliff fighting, and she was coming back for more ammo, I think. I then realized that I needed something else that could work more quickly, and so I got someone that was standing there at the door to get a phone so that I could call Jason (from Papa John's) and ask him if I could borrow a knife of his. So when I talked to him on the phone, he was more than happy to let me borrow it, and he left immediately to bring it to me.

I then found more green bean pods on the ground next to where I was laying. I opened one up, and I saw several of the black seeds that I needed, as well as some regular beans that I didn't need. I had pick them out and sort them out, throwing out the ones that were edible and put the black ones (which were hard and dry) into the shooter I had just used before.

While I was putting them in, Jason showed up with his knife, and at the same time, Grandmamma showed up. She was asking something about what was going on, and I think she asked if it was a bible study we were doing in the room. I was there thinking "nope, it sure isn't" and I knew that she'd have a hissy-fit reaction if she saw the chaos in the room. I didn't even look up, and I heard her approach the door and I heard her get upset about what was going on.

Right after this she left, and I continued to thank Jason for the knife, and I think I put more seeds into the shooter pod. I then tried it out again, but it didn't work as well as before. I didn't feel that I had time to learn how to do this effectively enough, so I went with the blowgun darts/needles again. I put several of them (probably about 50 this time) into my left hand and then I woke up for a moment. As I did, I could still feel the needles in my hand. They didn't hurt, but it just made my hand feel tight and tough to move.

I then slipped back into the dream a moment later, and I was no longer in the Jr. High room war zone. I was walking behind the same girl I had been fighting the spheres with (but this time she was smiling, and she had longer hair to the middle of her back, and it was lighter in color), and she was with her boyfriend. We were heading into the Sanctuary of the church, and her boyfriend went in first, then her, then me, and then Natalie was back (I think) and she followed me in. We sat in the very back pew on the right hand side, and I remember being afraid of sitting too close or touching the girl on my left because of her boyfriend getting upset. As I sat down and faced the front, it felt like there was a wall of people in the pews in front of us, and I think they were all standing. It turned out I was wearing my suit, and I was very uncomfortable, feeling like I was strapped into some huge immovable thing.

Terrible Haircut

I was at mom's and Pat's (step-father) house, and for some reason I decided to get my hair cut. The way I went about it, though, was that I basically decided to shave my head. Instead of doing it myself, though, I had someone else to do it for me, although I can't remember who.

Soon after having it done, I think I looked in the mirror, and I saw that the sides and part of the top had been done just to "test it out" to see how it was going to be, although it was cut very unevenly. There were still some longer parts (about 2 or 3 inches) that had somehow been missed within the parts that had been cut, so it all looked very sloppy, especially with the back side of it not cut at all.

Then, for some reason, I had to go out somewhere (which felt like Pleasant Valley Church, although I'm not so sure it was) and at first I was afraid of people noticing my badly cut hair. I ended up leaving though, and completely forgetting about my hair.

I was in the narthex area outside of the sanctuary, as well as walking down the hallway that goes by the pastor's study, and I also made a trip through the Fellowship Hall and I think even on or around the balcony in the Sanctuary. Then I somehow remembered about my hair, and I was somewhat embarrassed, although I still didn't really think about it much. I remember then seeing it in the mirror again (although I'm not sure which mirror I was looking into) and seeing that it still looked just as bad as before. I even reached up and played with the unevenly cut parts that were in the area of what had been done up to that point. I then got the thought of getting the trimming shears that I had used once before to cut my hair, and finishing it all myself to at least make it even. I think I remember starting, but I think something sidetracked me, but I'm not sure what.

My Family Comes Early to Visit

I remember being out in the kitchen here at The Commons (apartment in Savannah), and I heard someone at my door. At first I thought it was Brin (the noisy girl downstairs) saying something about my handicapped sign that I had on my door. The the door opened, and it was Matthew (brother), not Brin. I asked him what he was doing here, because they weren't supposed to be here for another day. He said that they had decided to come down a day early instead. I was kind of in terror about this, because I hadn't done anything to get my apartment ready for moving yet. I hadn't done any clean-up or anything, and here my family was here to help me move over to the new house.

I was trying to think of some way to make it so my parents wouldn't come up and see my place looking so bad, but I couldn't think of what to do. I thought of sending them over to the new place, but there wasn't any electricity or water in there yet, and so I couldn't do that. The next thing that I remember was that I was out in the kitchen again, and mom and Pat (step-father) were out on my screen porch. I guess they had seen my place by then, and as I looked into my room, I saw Matthew lying on my swivel chair, which was up on my bed for some reason. Mom then started saying something to him and trying to get him off the chair, but I don't remember why. I think that she felt that he was being lazy or something, but I'm not sure why she was even so worried about it. It wasn't like anyone was trying to do anything. We were all just hanging around and relaxing anyway.

Addoll Alexandria (Madonna Gives Me a Hair Cut)

I was getting ready to go to prom in the next day or two, and I felt that I needed a haircut. So I was looking around for a place to have it done, but I wasn't sure of where to go. I ended up in this little shop that wasn't very well known, but it wasn't very expensive, either. I got my haircut and then I went up front to pay for it. I was digging in my pocket for money, but I didn't have very much. I decided that this would be the person's tip for cutting my hair, and when I looked at her, it was Madonna (the singer) that had cut my hair.

At first I had given her two dollars, and then I dug around and found two more. I gave those to her, and then I went home real quick to get a check to pay for the cut itself. I was filling out the check, and I couldn't remember the name of the place. I heard a voice tell me to go back and look at the name on the door, and so I did. When I got there, I saw that it said "Addoll Alexandria". So I put that on the check, and then I guess I paid for the rest of the haircut.

After I went inside, I saw that this place looked a lot like the Fellowship Hall at Pleasant Valley Church. I sat down at one of the long tables (back close to the kitchen end) and I was eating cheese sticks that I had made. (I had somehow made them here) Then a guy was there looking for something that he wanted to buy to eat, and someone else was talking to him and trying to help him out. I told him that the cheese sticks were good if he wanted to try those. For some reason he didn't believe me that we sold those there, and so we had another set of them sitting there under the heating lamp. He pulled off the nastiest looking one (because it was just a bunch of dough bubbles, and not any cheese on it) and he dipped it in the pizza sauce and decided that he liked it okay, and I think the guy decided to get those after all.

Moving into Mike's House

I was at mom's and Pat's (step-father) house packing up some of my stuff, and I remember walking around through the living room and through the stairway at the front door. Then I was on a school bus, and Mike (manager at Papa John's) was driving it.

We were in Weyers Cave, and as we came to the end of the subdivision where Scott (best friend from elementary school) lives (kind of close to where the apartments are that Pat used to live in) we stopped, and I tossed my red gym bag out. I was doing this because I was supposedly moving, and I was moving my stuff by taking it onto the bus with me and tossing it out at the appropriate spot.

A little while later, I went past the same place, but this time Mike's mom was driving the bus (which she IS a bus driver in real life) and when we got to that spot, she said something about she had gotten some message about how I needed to be taken immediately to the house that I was moving in to. I asked her if she could drop me off, and so she said okay, and the next thing I know is that I'm outside of Mike's (former step-father) house, and there's some sort of remodeling crew there, and evidently they were waiting on me to do something, but at the same time, they didn't want me to go into the house. My mom and a couple of others were there, and she had a car full of my stuff.

I looked into the front door of the house, and they remodelers had torn up the floor in some places, and torn out the walls in others, just leaving the 2x4's. I think they were telling me that I couldn't go in, but at the same time mom really needed to get rid of my stuff. So finally the remodelers were leaving because they realized that I was going inside anyway, and so as they drove off, I picked out some of my stuff from mom's car and took it inside.

At first I was thinking that I would take the very back room in the second floor for mine and Theresa's (from Kentucky) room, but then I decided that because of being scared of things so easily, I didn't want that one until at least they had returned from Kentucky, and so I took my old downstairs room instead.

I put whatever I was carrying in there, and I saw that some of my other stuff had already been moved in, and some of Mike's old stuff hadn't been moved out. I put whatever stuff of mine on this white book case that was out in the middle of the room, and then I turned towards the bed. The old bunk bed was still there, and so I decided that I'd have the bottom bed. I was going to get rid of the old bed that was there and put mine in instead. I told Eric and Matthew (brothers) that when they came to visit to spend the night that they could sleep on the top bunk and that I'd get a new mattress to put up there.

I then remember being out in the kitchen area sitting at a table. I remember mom making the comment of how she liked the type of windows that were in this house, meaning the ones that swung out instead of slid up. Where I was sitting was back in the corner where the stove and sink should've been, but they were no longer there. I said something about it, and I was told that he had taken those things out. I turned to my right and looked back behind me, and there was an area that had been built on that had a huge fireplace and another room built off to the left of the fireplace (the fireplace was turned at a 45 degree angle, with the front facing towards the living room area, and the door was on the left of that.) There were several black kettles and fairly old, but unused looking utensils and such around the fireplace, and I just couldn't imagine Carol (Mike's wife) using that to cook. I thought that maybe it was more for looks (even though it was kind of in it's own room) and that the stove was back around the corner of the room behind the fireplace. But I still wondered about the sink.

I then got up and was looking around, and there was a lot of stuff that Mike hadn't taken away, and for some reason I got the impression that he had just left it behind. I was over in the living room area, and there was still a sofa and such there, and a low table or pedestal area where the big TV would've been, but he had taken that. I turned to the corner that was beside the door that went outside, and there was this bar looking area there. I wondered what was inside of it, although for some reason I knew it had grapes and stuff that were making wine, and so someone (I think it was mom) opened the door on it, and sure enough, there were about four tubs of grapes that were juicing themselves into some sort of vat below to make wine later. I wondered what in the world I was going to do with that because I didn't drink wine.

I then turned around back to the wall where the opening leads back to my room and the bathroom area, and there was a new thing that had been built that extended out about 5 or 6 feet. It wasn't as tall as the rest of the room, and on top of this was where there were some lights situated to light the area. There was a door on the front of this thing, and so mom opened it, and there was all this food inside, stored in the same sort of bins that the wine grapes were in in the bar. There were all sorts of things in there, but what predominated was fruits like grapes and chunked pineapple, some vegetables, and lots of cake. The cakes were as varied as the fruits and veggies in that there were round ones and square ones, whole ones, half ones, chocolate ones with Oreo cream icing and yellow ones with chocolate icing. There were all sorts. When the door was opened to look inside, there were not only these foods inside, but they were sitting outside of it, too. As soon as the door was closed, though, all the food was back inside.

Soon after this, I was talking to mom, and she was asking me what it was that I used to be scared of so badly when I was younger. I told her that I didn't really know, but it was just kind of everything. She asked me for specifics, and so I told her as an example, I was afraid of seeing a skull on the shelves in the bathroom. She acted kind of surprised at this, but at the same time she didn't. I think it was because she could see being afraid of seeing that, but she didn't know where I had gotten the idea.

We then went out to the back porch, and I was still looking for the stove. I found the clothes washer and the dryer on the back porch, and there was a blanket or something thrown up over one or both of them, and then after a bit, I saw that the washing machine was broken. One of the "legs" had fallen off of it and so it couldn't finish it's last cycle, and the pink soap water was all sitting in the bottom still from where it couldn't drain out.

The Motorcycle

I was at Mike's (former step-father) house (although I think it belonged to mom and Pat) and there was something going on about me needing transportation of some sort. I don't know if I really needed it right then or what, but I know that they (mom and Pat) mentioned at one point that they were getting rid of their old Corolla (the tan one they used to have) At first Mike said he would buy it, but I stepped in and said that I wanted it since my car wasn't working so great. Mike was pissed at me about this and said that he was going to be the one to get it. I basically told him that "no he wasn't" and insisted that because I was part of the family, I'd get the first shot at it. Mom and Pat said something about that it wasn't as good as it used to be because of the spot on it where someone (or something) had peed on it.

I then went outside (which actually ended up being outside of mom's and Pat's current house instead of outside of Mike's house) and went out to the close end of the chicken house. The car was sitting there in tall grass that hadn't been mowed around it in a while, and I looked on the door on the passenger's side, and sure enough, there was a spot there where it was rusting out, and a trail was leading down from it, right where the pee had hit it. I said that I didn't care about that, and that it was still better than my car.

I think Mike ended up leaving, and so I was just kind of dawdling around, and I think Eric (brother) told me that I could use his dirt bike/motorcycle to get to school. It may not have been his, but I'm not really sure. I ended up getting on it, and the tires were a little low, but I took it for a little spin anyway. As I was heading out and around, trying this thing out, I started finding little features about it that made it seem really cool to me. It ran pretty well, and so I went over to Pleasant Valley Church and was riding it in the parking lot. Before I got over there, I think I had found the "roof" to it that folded out from the back like it would on a convertible.

While I was there, I was asking around to see if anyone had an air compressor to pump up the tires with, but I don't think anyone did. Someone there who looked a lot like Tim (a guy from church, married to Nancy) with a mustache was talking with me about it for a bit, and he helped me find another feature on it. This one was that there was a seat in the back of the drivers seat. Also, it turned out that the seat I sat on folded away or something.

So I had that out, and I decided then to put up convertible the top because it seemed like it was going to rain, but when I did, I found out that there wasn't any windshield in the thing. At first I was kind of disappointed, but it didn't really worry me. I hooked the two arms onto the front just in front of the handlebars, and that kept the top in place.

After I did so, Jeremiah (son of a neighbor's boyfriend) showed up and he climbed into the back seat. As it turned out, it looked really comfortable, and it was closer to the ground than the driver's seat, and it kind of reclined back and let the person sitting there relax. I thought that was really cool, and I decided that I was going to go over to Deno's to put some air in the tires so it would go better. As I started to go there, I realized that the tires were already somewhat better, and so I decided that I didn't' need to go to Deno's. So I drove this thing home with the top up and with Jeremiah in the back seat.

When I got there (which was outside of Mike's house again) Eric (brother) or someone was out there, and they helped me with getting the lights set up on it. It turned out that it had a headlight and interior lights and stuff like that, and so they set up the wiring, and after that was done, all that had to be done was to set the merging point of all these wires up in the roof (where the dome light should be) and place this little 1 inch square box over it that had little openings for the wires. It seems that I was going to do it, but I don't think I did, but the lights ended up working anyway.

I then realized that I had to go to school, and so I started to go but I decided not to go that day just so I could stay and work the kinks out of this so that I could possibly think about getting this to use instead of the Corolla. I wasn't sure about what I wanted to do. I knew that whichever one I got, Mike would get the other, and I wanted both of them (as did he).

Prom

I was in the gym of what looked like Weyers Cave Elementary School, and I was doing some sort of basketball practice. I was trying to slam dunk the ball into various baskets because I felt that they were low enough to try it on. After piddling around with this for a while, I left and went outside.

There were lots and lots of people outside, all lined up to go into the front. I realized that there was a prom going on and that I had the chance to go. So I got into line, and while I was in line, I
passed Mrs. Williams (my fourth grade teacher). She was getting upset at Eric (brother) for some reason, and she was sending "them" (him and a group of his friends, I think) off to Tybee Island (which wasn't far away, despite this was in Virginia).

So as I stood in line, I started talking to a few people, and I think I remember seeing John and Natalie (both from Papa John's) there waiting in line, along with Stephen and Andy (friends from school) and a few others that I recognized. I somehow got dressed for the prom while I was waiting, and then I finally found myself inside.

At first when I entered, I met up with Andy and we went past the first door that everyone was going into the room it was being held in, and we decided to go into the second door. At first I thought I was missing my ticket, but then I remembered that I had it, even though I ended up not having to show it to anyone.

We went in and were walking around just seeing who was there. After a little bit, he found a small group of his friends to stop and talk to, so we were there doing that, and all of a sudden I
felt something hitting me in the back and on the back of my arm. I turned around, and it was Jenny (Andy's ex-girlfriend) spraying cheddar spray-cheese at me. I got mad at her, and I was blocking it with my hand, and I approached her and finally got hold of the can and shook it and
yelled at her for doing that to me. She was there kind of laughing and carrying on, along with Jamie (a girl from church), but I got even more upset. I wanted to spray them back, but I couldn't do it. I ended up throwing the cans of cheese down on the ground, and when I did, the
mechanism for spraying broke and ended up pointing up at them as the can lay on the ground, and it sprayed them anyway. They got upset about it, but I wasn't too worried since I had it all over my back. Then Andy and I left and found the bathroom so I could clean up, and so he could use the bathroom.

When we found it, we went in, and there were both guys and girls in there, even though we knew it was just the boy's bathroom. I think I must have taken off my jacket and put it somewhere, because when we went back in to the prom, I didn't have it on anymore. After this, Andy and I walked around some more and met up with some people and just sat and talked, but that was about it.

Teleportation

Theresa (from Kentucky), her kids, and I were all in some sort of department store, which seemed much like a Furniture store, or maybe just something close to Belk's or JCPenny. We were all in the back of the store, and Theresa and I decided that we had to go. So, instead of just walking to the front of the store with the kids to leave, she and I decided to teleport there even though we knew that the kids didn't know how to teleport yet.

At first we ran our hands across our navel chakras, thinking that was the activator to do it. After trying it and it didn't work, we realized it was our root chakras that did it, not our sex ones. So we ran our fingers across the front of our root chakras and then closed our eyes and concentrated, and before we knew it, we had teleported to the front of the store, just where we wanted to be.

We then realized that the kids weren't with us, and so we had to find someone to "summon" them. (Like in the game of Nexus) I stumbled across Kim (girl with white hair from school), and I asked her if she could do it. I think that she thought that magic like that was satanic, so she said that she couldn't do it, but she knew someone that could, and that was Megan (redhead from high school).

So we went off just as little ways into the store, and we found Megan on a small carpeted area that had a sofa and chair and a couple of coffee tables. Kim told her what it was that we needed, and she was happy to help us out. As Kim was walking off, she made some sort of snide comment about Rhonda (a girl from church that was Megan's age) (whom Megan had started to change in to) and then Megan/Rhonda just made a face at Kim and made some sort of noise. Kim heard her and asked her what she had said about her. Megan told her, "I didn't say anything. I just did this." and made the face again.

After that, Kim left, and Megan continued about her spell to bring the kids to us. After she did, Theresa, the kids, and I left the store and walked out into the rest of the mall. On our right was Centerpoint Bookstore, and so we all went in there. I didn't know how Theresa was going to take it because of her aversion to Christianity, but as we walked in and saw that it looked "normal", she did okay. We went and walked down the right side aisle, and the kids ran ahead of us, and then back to us. I think that we told them that they shouldn't be running through the store, and so they ended up sticking along with us.
