Oregon Coast Beach house

My whole family got together and we went to the Oregon coast to a beach house that looked like a combination of the house I grew up in on Joyce St., and the house that my parents live in now. We were all crowded in there together and sleeping in sleeping bags all over the floor. My kids were begging to go to the beach and the beach looked like the beaches do here in Hawaii. Everyone thought it was so weird that the only thing my kids wanted to do was go to the beach when we live in Hawaii and that's all we ever do.
Then I needed to go to the grocery store, so I asked Will to take me. Asia and Tatum were crying so we took them with us. We went to the grocery store which was the Roth's IGA on 99E in Woodburn and as we were walking on the sidewalk in front of the store, I saw my Aunt Janet walking toward the front door and she had a shopping cart with 2 small kids inside. She whispered my name and asked me to hold the door for her, but as I rounded the corner to the door, it was automatic and it opened by itself. She walked inside without saying anything and Will and I decided to go to the dollar store next door to look. I was telling him how weird it was that she asked me to hold the door when it was automatic. (END)

Garden Park 2

moved into our old condo in UT at Garden Park with 4 other girlfriends. We were in the kitchen putting things away and making dinner. When we were getting settled, we noticed there were 2 dishwashers. Just as I turned around, one of the girls was installing a 3rd dishwasher. When I looked at her questioningly, she just shrugged and was like What?! I had a dishwasher from my old place and figured we could use it. (END)

Being chased

I don't recall a lot about this dream, but there were 4 "bad guys" (3 men and a manly looking woman). I was with a friend, though I don't know which one. We were somewhere and these 4 bad people came and told us that we had to drive them somewhere and we were scared they were going to do something bad to us. They had guns and were all dressed in black. They had a van and we had a small car. So we didn't end up having to take them anywhere, but they made us follow them and one of them rode with us. We drove all over through lots of streets and turns. We ended up in a kind of secluded area, but it had a huge business building on the lot. We ran up to the doors and the concierge guy took all our keys. The bad guys told us to play it cool and not raise any suspicions. They gave instructions to go to the roof and wait. As we headed to the elevator, I told my friend that we had to make a run for it, but she didn't want to because she was afraid we'd get caught and killed. Then, just as the elevator opened, there was no one around so I made a break for a near by glass door. It went out on to a back patio of sorts and we ran around the side of the building to the front. I saw the cars parked out by the curb, but then I realized that we had given the keys to both cars to the concierge. Just as I was about to say something about it, she threw the keys at me with a wink and we ran to the car. (END)

getting a job

I should start by saying that last night at about 11:30, I needed to go to Wal-Mart for some "supplies" and since my sister, Megan is still here with her husband, I asked Will to go with me since it was so late and it had started raining. So we rode the scooter and of course it down poured on us and there was extreme thunder and lightening. When we got to Wal-Mart, they were stocking shelves and cleaning the store, as per usual for that time of night, but I had a sudden flashback from when I worked there when we first moved here and it instantly made me realize that I would NEVER want to work there EVER again!!!
In this dream I am trying to get a job at this posh kind of hip restaurant and all the girls that work there are like really tall and thin and super trendy. When I walked in they were all looking at me like, What is SHE doing here. The owner was also very trendy and pretty, but she was very friendly. She took my application and talked to me and said that she would get in touch with me. All the other girls were standing around rolling their eyes and whispering. I was getting so mad, but I was covering it up and focusing on having a friendly conversation with the owner.
When I left, I went to this little like Ma and Pa country store and the little old man that was the owner kind of reminded me of Will's uncle Stanley Erickson. He and his wife ran a little store and kind of like soda pop counter. There was one really friendly looking young girl that worked there for them and he asked me if I would consider coming to work for them. So I said yes, since I was looking for work. Well there wasn't much to do and I felt bad that they were paying me just to sit there, so I picked up a sponge outside and started washing their old gold colored boat of a car. The man just smiled and didn't say anything, but the other young girl was like What are you doing?! You don't have to do that. If there is nothing to do, we can just leave or sit around to keep them company. I was like, I know, but I am bored and I WANT to wash the car for them.
Then it switched and I was going back to the posh restaurant to check on my application there, but when I got there, my application was sitting on the front counter and it wasn't filled out. I started feeling so embarrassed and kept apologizing to the owner that I didn't complete it with my work history. So I took a pen to fill it in, but I was completely blank, I couldn't remember any of the places I had worked or who I had worked with. I was telling her, I swear I have work history. I am so sorry that I am being so retarded right now, I just can't think straight! (END)
I know I said I didn't want my dreams analyzed and I still don't, but now when I think back on the posh part of the dream. The girls kind of reminded me of the models from America's Next Top Model and the owner reminded me of Tyra Banks (though they didn't while I was dreaming, they only do now that I am awake and remembering the dream back).

Garden Park

In this dream, we are moving back to UT and back into our condo at Garden Park. It pretty much looks the same. The kitchen is set up a little different. When we get there, my mom and dad are there with us and we are just trying to get settled and fix something to eat. The furniture is already there and set up. I notice that behind the couch there are 2 baskets that look kind of like Easter basket for little kids. One was kind of boy-ish and the other was girlie. They were full of toys and candy. But they had obviously been opened and played with previously and there were empty candy wrappers from the candy that had already been eaten. My kids wanted to eat the candy and play with the toys, but I kept dwelling on figuring out where they came from and who they were for. Because in my mind I knew that the couple that lived there just before we moved in were older and didn't have any children living with them. So I was summizing that they must have had grandkids staying with them, but it wasn't Easter time so they must have just put together some baskets of toys and candy for them.
Also, whenever I have dreamed about Garden Park before and also in this dream, I am always thinking, WOW, I can't believe I actually missed this place. Gosh, this feels like home. Or, I can't believe we are actually moving back to this condo after swearing that we would NEVER live in UT again! (END)
