Wednesday, August 1, 2012 ~ Day 1 of the August 2012 30-Day Blogging Challenge prompt is Describe an unusual/weird dream that you have had recently. Knocks, shouts, someone is knocking at my bedroom window, on the glass patio door, on the iron security screen at the front door. Wake up (at least I think I wake up), force myself to think, look out into the darkness, look out at the oleander bush reflecting... Am I awake? Am I still asleep? My limbs won’t move; force myself to get up and robot-walk into the dining room, the patio light is lit, but no one is on the patio. Go into the living room and look out the picture window... my car is gone! Is this a dream? I remember putting my car in the garage last night. Start to go to the front door, but find myself sitting up in bed, so I get up (hoping I am awake this time) pass through the dining room on my way to the entrance hall, I open the front door the security screen is locked and my car is parked in the garage; I check the clock in the living room and it is 2:30 AM; since the alarm is set to go off in thirty minutes there is no use going back to bed; therefore, I take my thyroid medication and sit down on the couch, with my prayer book.
