dream

I had a few odd dreams last night. One I was taking care of my skin. I have started massaging oils into my skin, but in my dream i was massaging cottage cheese into it.

the other dream was much longer and much more involved. It started out with a therapy session. I am not sure if I was the therapist or the client. There were gum paste like paper dolls. The pieces were a bit softer - almost like dry play doh. They were easily placed, but you could smoosh them into one another so they stuck.There were several different pieces for the face -the hair, the mouth, the eyes. The doll was riding a horse, but I didn't see the horse, just the front legs for it which were very thick and more stuffed toy horse like. I fixated on the legs, and then I ended up moving on. I went to the bathroom which was a really large shower. A spa like wood panneled room with benches and plants and flowers. I even think there was a small cat under one of the benches. I marveled in the room and was getting ready to take my clothes off when a number of very large men entered the front room - which was visable from the door to the shower. I readjusted my clotehs and went out to confront them, saying they had no right to be there that I was given this by a friend. They didn't care. They were acting like the mafia, and more and more men started streaming in. Most were very pissy and throwing around orders - which included removing me by force if necessary. One guy was more reasonable, and he called over the chef and they taked me into getting a barley and chive facial. I sat on a reclining chair like a dentist chair but not. They rubbed the facial on my face while talking about the benefits of the enzymes. While I let it sit on my face, I was aware I was out in a street festival. There were stands selling food near by and lots of people milling around. I got up and it was if the facial didn't happen as my face was clean. I looked around and saw a pie shop. It was in a corner shop, and the large windows let you view inside. There were cases that were stuffed full of pastries and cakes. The short amount of counter space was covered with plates of pieces of pies. The store was staffed with a large number of "old fashioned" women. Amish women, parire women and tv moms of the 50s. They came down the stairs carring pieces of pies. I looked up stairs, and it was a marvel. There was a turn table with cakes and pies and jello molds with candies in it. it was so large though, about the size of a large dinner table or bigger. The jello was also larger then life. after which I went home. I apparently moved into a new home and was still in the process of unpacking boxes and settling in. There was one room that I went into that was livable. DH was there and so were most of the cats. we were trying to go to sleep but then we realized that three of them were fixated on something so we wondered if we had "visitors" so I looked where they were gazing. I first saw the small black toy mouse they like playing with in real life, but behind it was a small black real mouse. I tried to catch it, but a cat got in the way and the mouse escaped. I saw a few others and were unable to catch them either. I saw a brown creature, and tried to catch it with a shoe box size and style box. But the bottom of the box was uneven, and it left gaps where it would escape. This thing was a mix between a squirrel / chipmunk / kitten and it was quick. It got out of the room, and ran around a corner, but I saw it stop in it's tracks before it fully got around the corner. I went to see why, and saw "F" my cat had stopped it in it's tracks by putting her paw on it's head. I was able to scoop the creature up in the box and headed toward the door. The reason I say it was part kitten because a few times it bit me trying to get me to let it go, but it felt very much like a young kitten nip. as I got to the door, I realized it was pouring. I felt a little bad, but I knew this creature belonged outside. I had to move a lot of boxes and junk to get to the door, and I got nipped a few more times trying to do it. I finally got the door open and let the creature go and it bounded through the rain across the yard. The yard was the place I grew up on, and the thing ran towards where the garden is. It ran over a little rise in the ground and I realized there was an animal there. I looked and it was a gray cat. I called to the kitty and it looked over to me. I called again, and then dozens of cat eyes looked at me. It broke my heart to see all those kitties out in the rain so I woke up

I woke up DH and told him I had a bad dream and about the kitties, and he was really sweet and "finished" the dream for me, he told me that if I hadn't woken up, I would have had all of the kitties come into the house and sit by the fireplace and eat warm food and take a nice nap.
