[If you haven't yet, read part 1 and part 2 first]
It started out that I was at Grandmamma's funeral. I was out in the Narthex of the church, and mostly everyone else was in the sanctuary. There was someone else out there with me, (some male figures, I believe) but no one specific.
Then all of a sudden Grandmamma was there behind me. I saw her and realized that she shouldn't be there because she'd scare everyone else. She was smiling brightly and looking up to the right (her left). She did this a couple of times, and then I decided that she should really go before someone else saw her because they wouldn't understand, so I told her to go 'upstairs'. She started up the stairs, and as she did, I started to wake up.
I was almost fully conscious when I realized that I needed to get her "spiritual name" (the name of the impostor posing as grandmamma). I knew that, yet again, this wasn't grandmamma, so I somehow forced myself back into the dream right where it left off and just as she was going out of sight, I asked her "What is your name?? What is your name???" She replied "Kisid", and I said it to myself over and over. Then I wanted to be sure I could write it down, so I asked her how to spell it since I was thinking to myself "C-A-S--" and knew it wasn't right. She goes "K-I-S-I-D" and then I woke up. I said the name and spelled it over to myself several times before going back to sleep... I wasn't going to forget it. The only thing is now I'm not sure if that's Grandmamma's actual "spiritual name", or if that's the name of the being that had been posing as her.

Grandmamma's Impostor II
[If you haven't yet, read part 1 first]
It started out that I was driving in a pick-up truck to Staunton to pick up some mulch. I remember being on Rt 11 just past the Ingleside heading south, but not quite to the stop light at the fork in the road.
Then I remember being on a back road after I had gotten the mulch. It reminded me a lot of the road that goes from Fort Defiance to Sarah's (ex-girlfriend) house. It was kind of like there at the sharp turn before you start going up the hill to the intersection at Pisgah Church. Although, now that I think about it, it also looked quite a bit like the area right when you're going to the Green Valley Book Fair, right when you're at the fork right in front of the house getting ready to go right to get into the parking lot.
Then the next thing I remember I was driving down to the dairy barn, and grandmamma was there spreading some mulch, and I had gone to get her more. She was INSIDE of the dairy barn spreading it, but it was like there wasn't really walls to the outside, but just posts, and she was spreading it around on the mud and dirt floor.
She was spreading it kind of thin, and then all of a sudden it hit me that this wasn't really grandmamma. I think that the fact that she was spreading mulch, and that seemed like something that she wouldn't' be doing was what tipped me off. I think that grandaddy was also close by somewhere, and there was some sort of thought that ran through my mind relating him to the situation, like he'd never let her do such a thing like working like that. (but I know in real life he would've just because they lived on the farm we're on now, only then it was theirs, and they did all the work themselves...)
Anyway, then 'grandmamma' tried to pay me for bringing her the mulch, but I don't think I wanted the money just because I knew it wasn't her. I think I ended up taking the money anyway, though, because she almost started to get mean about it, or I didn't want this thing to get angry with me for not taking it.
Then about the next thing I remember was that I was in the house, and I was getting ready to leave. I think this thing gave me a hug or tried to or something, and as I was getting ready to leave, my mom showed up. We sat down on a sofa down in the dining room where grandmamma used to have it
before we moved in, (in front of the window facing Garber's farm) and the 'grandmamma impostor' went outside to work on the air conditioning unit that was right outside of the window.
I sat at the end closest to Nick's room, and mom sat at the end closest to mine. We were talking about how this thing was impersonating grandmamma, and that it was actually doing a good job at it, but it was 'too technical' because of the stuff it was doing, such as the mulching and the working on the air conditioner.
Then in the lull of the conversation, I looked at mom and told her that I loved her. She then looked at me and told me she loved me, too. Then I looked down, and the sofa had
turned into one of the scrap boxes from work, and there was a lot of sawdust and little strips of
wood in it. (even though in the dream I didn't notice the change) I messed around a little with
the sawdust from the 'front' of the box (the side facing away from Garber's) and then we decided
that we were going to leave.
We got up, and we were walking towards the kitchen, and one of us (I think it was me) got the bright idea to say goodbye to this thing outside the window that was trying to be grandmamma.
So I said 'bye' and it let out this long and painful sounding 'byyyyyyyyyyyeee' in this terrible and raspy (yet almost childish but masculine) voice. Then it did it again, longer and even more painful sounding. I realized that this thing was almost in pain or something from being in grandmamma's form for too long, and even it's face was starting to distort more than it had already been. (faces are almost always distorted in my dreams) and it even almost looked like it was in pain. I saw mom kind of shoot it a glance like asking "What's your problem?", and I kind of did the same. Then I realized that this thing was going to be busting out of grandmamma's form, and something told me that I didn't want to be there when it did, and that ended up scaring me awake.

Matchbox Sized Helicopter
I was going in the door of this hotel, and I was going to this 'game' for some reason. I don't know who else was involved with it, but I remember that there was supposed to be this series of tests that the group of people were supposed to go through. (Some game, huh?) They were physical tests, and I think there were six of them, but we only had to choose one or two.
So I'm pretty sure I did my first one, which ended up being a simple one, but then I got drafted into doing another one that was much more difficult and I wasn't looking forward to at all. I don't remember what the first one was, but the second one had something to do with being on this cliff and getting ready and waiting for this helicopter to come and pick me up and fly me out far enough that I had to fall through this gigantic tube and into icy cold water of this river. Withstanding the cold water was actually the test itself.
So my 'instructor' told me that I had to go, and it seems to me that it was either mom, or someone that looked a lot like her. So I was transported up to the top of the cliff, and I think I remember seeing some houses and hills up kind of where I was, and I could see the river way down below me.
The time of day was either late in the evening, or it was very early in the morning. It was overcast, and it was fairly dark. I had a sense of just standing around and wasting time even though I knew I was supposed to be getting ready and getting dressed for my test. After a little while, I think my instructor showed up and told me to get ready because the helicopter was supposed to be there at 4:25. Even though I was told 4:25, it somehow registered as being 4:15 when it was supposed to be there, but it's like the two numbers were the same.
I think I got up to the top of the cliff at 3:45, and I was supposed to be ready within the half hour. I think it was actually later than the time that the chopper was supposed to be there, so I hurried up and got ready and dressed, and just as I did, the chopper showed up. I reached up, and the thing was no bigger than a Matchbox car, but I held on to it while it flew me back away from the edge of the river, and then we turned around and went towards the edge of the cliff.
Just as I got over the edge, I let go and rolled myself up into a ball and did a forward somersault as I went down into this big tube that was just big enough to be comfortable to fall through. I came out the other end and landed in the cold cold river, but I don't remember feeling the cold water. I just remember being in the water. Then my instructor was there and I walked up onto the bank with her and some of the rest of the class.

The Eiffel Tower Swing
I was at this place that was supposed to be King's Dominion, but I'm not 100% sure about that. There was this new ride there, and it had these levers at the bottom (a lot like what you see in cartoons that come out of the floor and are supposed to trigger stuff) that made the thing work. I think that Matthew (brother) was with me, and there was something about I was supposed to be running this ride, or someone at least wanted me to try to, but I didn't want to.
Then I saw the thing starting to run, and it looked a lot like a swing set, except it was huge, like the Eiffel Tower at King's Dominion, and the swings went all the way around. The thing was kind of sitting out in the middle of nowhere, and I didn't see any other rides around. Everything was barren, and it was like we were in the middle of a sunset because everything had this kind of dark red glow (like a sunset hitting it). I think I saw this thing from the side, so I could see the full circles these swings were making.
Then I saw that there was a second "swing" on the contraption, and it started going in the opposite direction of the first one.The first was going clockwise, and the second was going counterclockwise. Then it all of a sudden hit me that Matthew was on one of these things, but I don't remember if I was happy or if I was scared. Then I think that Matthew somehow got off, and then he ran the thing for a bit. I saw that the way it worked was not that you pushed a lever one way and it ran and then pushing it the other and it stopped. It was more like pumping. The harder and faster you pumped the lever, the faster that these things went around...

Grandmamma's Impostor I
I was in my blue gym shorts and going from my house down to 256 and then going down towards Weyers Cave on a bike. Just at the end of the first hill, I passed a very gruff old man and his assistant, and I believe that they were doing some sort of archaeological dig or something. I went past them, and then I turned around and started to come back and on my way through, I almost ran into the old man. I think that I stopped to see what they were doing, and that's when I figured out that they were doing a dig of some sort.
I watched for a moment, and then I think I asked the old man either what they were doing, or if I could help out. Either way, I think he responded to both questions and said "What does it look like we're doing?" and I think he said that he'd have to think about if I could help out. I said okay, and then I went home, but it actually ended up being Pleasant Valley Church.
I was down in the basement, and in one of the rooms (I think it was supposed to be the youth room, or even what is now the nursery school room) there was stuff set up to sleep on, so I went over to that area, and I think I may have been packing it up to go somewhere. I remember hoping that I would be able to help out the old man. I also remember that this bedding stuff that I was packing up was Sarah's (ex-girlfriend), I think. I know it wasn't mine, but it seems that it was hers.
Then after a little bit the old man came down and said that I could join him on his dig, and I was pretty happy about it. Then either him or his assistant told me that I'd have to wear something besides just my blue underwear, and I told him that they weren't underwear, but they were actually gym shorts. The guy just kind of laughed and said, "okay, your gym shorts then." I said okay and I think I put on something a bit better.
Then I went and met the old man, and he said that the first thing we had to do was go and get our food. At first this sounded like a good thing, but then I realized that it was going to be something I didn't like to do to get it, and he ended up telling me that we had to catch it ourselves, and that we were going down to the beach to get it. I knew that if I were going to get anything, I'd have to go and pick up crabs and stuff that I didn't want to touch, but I knew that if he thought I was a sissy, then he wouldn't let me on the dig. So I said okay to going and getting our food, and then we went upstairs through the narthex of the church to get ready to leave. (I think that I must have been out in the parking lot at one point, but I'm not absolutely sure how or when that would've been, but I just have this image of the side of the church and being in that side parking lot)
As we were going through the narthex, I think that I saw a couple of my family members, and I knew that we were at a wedding for someone. The person that was having the wedding was someone that I knew at the time, but I don't' remember who it was now.
Then I looked up at the ceiling of the narthex, and it was open to a second story and had a balcony up there. First there was only one person up there, who I think was mom. Then I was looking around again and then when I looked back up, there were more people. This happened a couple of times, and eventually Aunt Irene was up there, too. Her and mom were crying because of the wedding, and then all of a sudden I remember seeing flashes of lightning or something (yes, inside the church), and for a brief moment, I saw grandmamma to the right of everyone else up on the balcony. [Note: My grandmother passed away on Aug 1, 1997]
She was wearing a lavender dress with white flowers and collar and she may have even been holding a white purse. After another flash or two of lightning, she disappeared. After a moment mom had some how gotten down to where I was, and she said that if Kate (girl from Canada) and I hadn't looked away, we'd have seen grandmamma. I told her that I HAD seen her.
Then suddenly I got a very bad feeling, and I thought that I should ask grandmamma to protect me from some sort of evil energy or lower spirit that I could feel approaching me. By this point, all of the visual to my dream had gone away, and I was quickly waking up. Just as I was getting ready to ask her to protect me, I suddenly felt something squeezing my entire body. I was very close to being awake. I tried to say "protect me!" out loud, but I couldn't. No part of me would move. I was awake at this point, and then as suddenly as the squeezing came, it left and I tried to say it again, and it barely came out. I didn't want to go back to sleep after that because I was very scared of this evil energy coming back. I realized at this point that this thing that appeared to me in my dream wasn't grandmamma, but it was actually something bad disguised as grandmamma, almost so I would let it "in" or invite it to confront me.
I watched for a moment, and then I think I asked the old man either what they were doing, or if I could help out. Either way, I think he responded to both questions and said "What does it look like we're doing?" and I think he said that he'd have to think about if I could help out. I said okay, and then I went home, but it actually ended up being Pleasant Valley Church.
I was down in the basement, and in one of the rooms (I think it was supposed to be the youth room, or even what is now the nursery school room) there was stuff set up to sleep on, so I went over to that area, and I think I may have been packing it up to go somewhere.

Stuck On A Ride
I was at some sort of amusement park, and it seems that I was some how stuck either on or around the track of one of the roller coasters. Pat (step-dad) was there, too, but he was just talking to me, but he wasn't stuck. I think he might have been telling me to get out of there, but I'm not sure. I think I did eventually make it out, but I don't know what I did after that.
Dimension Of The Past
I was trying to get away from some people, and during the course of the dream, I recognized them, but now I don't know who it was. I ran into this tent or something like would be at a circus. Either that, or the building I was in had this place on it that was these flaps like what could be on a circus tent. I went through there hoping that the people wouldn't find me, but I could hear them close behind me, and I knew that they knew where I was.
I think that for a moment I was Batman, and as I kept going, there were more and more of these flaps to go through. There were some places that I had choices of which ones to go through, so I'd choose one hoping that I'd eventually lose them and find my way out.
Suddenly, I was in this HUGE tent looking thing, and I could see a sphinx off to my right, kind of back in this corner. It was very small, maybe only as big as a tiger or something, but I wasn't sure if I just wasn't close enough to it or not. But I do remember that the nose was intact.
I saw it and realized that I was in another dimension. I either knew or I was hoping that I had found the civilization that had built our own sphinx. I think that I briefly saw two girls next to it, kind of dressed in what I would imagine coming out of Jesus's day. I looked right ahead of me, and there was an opening in the tent, so I went towards it to see what was out there.
When I got out there, the two girls were there again, and I think that I heard them talking, and they weren't speaking English, so I was starting to get worried. As I looked around, I noticed that this place looked a lot like my house, and I was coming out of about where the kitchen would be. I asked them a question, and I'm not sure if they replied or not. Then I asked them if they spoke English, and they said no and something about going to papa.
They walked over to about where our side door on the house is, and there was kind of an older man there at the door working on something. I looked in, and the room looked more like it was "the first door" to our shed to the side of our house. I asked him something, and again, I'm not really sure if he said anything.
I started to worry again, and I went and looked back in the door I had just come out of. It, too, looked like the room behind the "first door" to the shed. But I could tell it was a kitchen or something like that, and both of the girls were in there. I think they were smiling and giggling as I looked in. I think that there was even some sort of table or counter coming from the left side of the room that one of them was working at. The other one was standing at the end of it talking to her. I went back out and asked the old man if he spoke English. I think that he said "not a word", and he kind of smiled. I asked him if he was sure, and he said "I'm sure" and kind of laughed. I did too... I was so happy to find someone that spoke English!
We started talking for a little bit, and he was telling me some stuff about where I was. At one point he said, "See? It's a bunch of clones!" and I looked, and I recognized the houses to be ones from the road that goes back to Stephen's (friend from school) house. The main ones I remember seeing is the one that Becky (girl from elementary school) used to live in and the one next to it.
I then realized something and I said to him, "you guys are just a way behind!" and I realized that this dimension was just like the one I came from, but it was many many years in the past. It was "catching up" so to speak. He said that I was correct, and then we started talking about stuff.
I remembered thinking that if we were back too far, then there wouldn't be any computers. I think I then asked who the girls were, and he said that they were his daughter and his wife. I was shocked. I thought that they were both too young for one of them to be married to him, but she was over at her door, and her head piece was off, and I could see her long dark hair and that it had grey streaks in it.
Then the man and I started walking, and I think we went through this big field or something for a while, and then eventually ended back up at the end of the building at the corner of the house. I was telling him things about the future, such as computers and going to the moon and stuff. Then we came upon a HUGE table, and there were parts laying around on the ground. Even whole table tops. I asked him why they were so big, and he said that there were going to get smaller.
He started talking about a guy (who he called "Joe" I think) that had a "clutter desk", which was a small desk with a computer on it, and how he had done something so well with those conditions that they were going to have to start using those small tables just because of him. Then as we were walking in between these two tables that had high backs on them (which made it feel like a cubical in an office) I saw a computer sitting to my left. I was amazed at how new it looked, and so I took a look at it up close, and it was either a 72, 86, or 94 Mhz processor, and I thought that for the time that they were supposedly living in, it wasn't bad. He said, "nope, it's not bad".
Then suddenly we were inside and I happened to think of another "future" thing that I thought would amaze him. I said, "And we're going to Mars!!" He just kind of goes "Oh yeah?" and turns and smiles at me over his left shoulder. I felt that either he didn't really care, he didn't' quite get the impact of my message, or he just didn't understand. I said "yeah! In two months!" and he kept about the same tone and said "wow".
Then we were at the bottom of my stairs in the dining room (but I'm not sure which dimension we were in. I think we were still in his), only instead of stairs coming up, there was a conveyor belt. For some reason we were piling all these books on it so they could go up, and I was hoping that this would help to get me home.
I was either thinking or telling him about he "face" found on mars and the pictures they're supposed to be taking of it. We were then doing something with the books on the conveyor, and there was this huge pile of them there where we were, and he was helping me out to move them or something. He had a utility knife in his hand, and he was cutting some of the books, I think.
Then he got too close to my hand and had the blade pressing against it. I jumped out of the way so I wouldn't get cut, and I think he jumped back, too, and we saw that the knife was actually moving by some force controlling it from underneath. I remember jumping back and putting my arms out to the sides and kind of hunched over the end of the conveyor. I shoved several of the books off onto the floor, and I saw a butter knife or a steak knife laying there. As I was moving from the end of the conveyor to back to the side of it, I said loudly, "if anyone is there, please let me know!" and the knife started to rotate counter clockwise...
Then Thess (my cat) woke me up scratching my door to be let in. =0(
I think that for a moment I was Batman, and as I kept going, there were more and more of these flaps to go through. There were some places that I had choices of which ones to go through, so I'd choose one hoping that I'd eventually lose them and find my way out.
Suddenly, I was in this HUGE tent looking thing, and I could see a sphinx off to my right, kind of back in this corner. It was very small, maybe only as big as a tiger or something, but I wasn't sure if I just wasn't close enough to it or not. But I do remember that the nose was intact.
I saw it and realized that I was in another dimension. I either knew or I was hoping that I had found the civilization that had built our own sphinx. I think that I briefly saw two girls next to it, kind of dressed in what I would imagine coming out of Jesus's day. I looked right ahead of me, and there was an opening in the tent, so I went towards it to see what was out there.
When I got out there, the two girls were there again, and I think that I heard them talking, and they weren't speaking English, so I was starting to get worried. As I looked around, I noticed that this place looked a lot like my house, and I was coming out of about where the kitchen would be. I asked them a question, and I'm not sure if they replied or not. Then I asked them if they spoke English, and they said no and something about going to papa.
They walked over to about where our side door on the house is, and there was kind of an older man there at the door working on something. I looked in, and the room looked more like it was "the first door" to our shed to the side of our house. I asked him something, and again, I'm not really sure if he said anything.
I started to worry again, and I went and looked back in the door I had just come out of. It, too, looked like the room behind the "first door" to the shed. But I could tell it was a kitchen or something like that, and both of the girls were in there. I think they were smiling and giggling as I looked in. I think that there was even some sort of table or counter coming from the left side of the room that one of them was working at. The other one was standing at the end of it talking to her. I went back out and asked the old man if he spoke English. I think that he said "not a word", and he kind of smiled. I asked him if he was sure, and he said "I'm sure" and kind of laughed. I did too... I was so happy to find someone that spoke English!
We started talking for a little bit, and he was telling me some stuff about where I was. At one point he said, "See? It's a bunch of clones!" and I looked, and I recognized the houses to be ones from the road that goes back to Stephen's (friend from school) house. The main ones I remember seeing is the one that Becky (girl from elementary school) used to live in and the one next to it.
I then realized something and I said to him, "you guys are just a way behind!" and I realized that this dimension was just like the one I came from, but it was many many years in the past. It was "catching up" so to speak. He said that I was correct, and then we started talking about stuff.
I remembered thinking that if we were back too far, then there wouldn't be any computers. I think I then asked who the girls were, and he said that they were his daughter and his wife. I was shocked. I thought that they were both too young for one of them to be married to him, but she was over at her door, and her head piece was off, and I could see her long dark hair and that it had grey streaks in it.
Then the man and I started walking, and I think we went through this big field or something for a while, and then eventually ended back up at the end of the building at the corner of the house. I was telling him things about the future, such as computers and going to the moon and stuff. Then we came upon a HUGE table, and there were parts laying around on the ground. Even whole table tops. I asked him why they were so big, and he said that there were going to get smaller.
