Dream Themes and Financial Stress

Last night I slept better.  A bit.  I woke several times but it was easier to fall back to sleep.  I used to have this weird "Tornado" dream that would happen whenever I was stressed.  The variations in each dream would either mirror how I was coping OR... (for those out there who are spiritual, you might understand this better...) what was 'about' to happen.  The most recent tornado dream I had was this past summer in which I was actually in the eye of the storm - everything was quiet, mellow, easy to deal with.  In contrast to ALL the others where several hundred tornado's would be seeking me out and - depending on my state of mind - would either catch me and I'd wake up, or I would be able to seek shelter and watch them go by with only minimal damage.  But the Eye of the Storm one was sooo different....and peaceful. 

I now know what happens after the eye of the storm.

The second wall of chaos.

But anyway - back to the dream theme.  Last night I did not have a tornado dream, even though I was pretty convinced I would.  No, apparantly I have been able to penetrate the theme too easily so my Father in Heaven has decided to try something new.  It is now the AIRPLANE dream.  I am getting sucked into the back engine of a huge jet (this would be so much more powerful if I knew anything about planes) and I can barely hold on. I finally break free from the vacuum but then I have to navigate my way across the tarmac (ok I know a little about planes) beneath the aircraft trying to avoid the wheels that are only inches from me no matter what direction I go.  I DID finally get out....but I had to run really fast, really far in order to feel like I was clear of being stalked by this thing (can you say paranoia???!!). 

I think I liked the tornado dream better.

In other news, I called the lady-who-helps the Bankruptcy Trustee this morning because I found several monthly expenses we have that she didn't ask about (and so, we didn't remember them).  Last Wednesday when we met with her she was REALLY NICE.  Thursday when I spoke to her on the phone she was a bit snippy and clearly trying to get me off the phone (had better things to do?).  Today she reemed me out!! It seems that I was supposed to have told her all this LAST week.  Woulda been nice if she had TOLD us that.

Mrs.W : "Before you call me with those account numbers I need this week, spend some time thinking about what we might have missed because I need to know BY FRIDAY!!"

Would it be THAT hard to say it out loud? I mean, we are not telepathic you know.  It turns out that if we add anything now we can't file on the Tuesday - we would have to wait until the next appointment (which would be end of november).  So it's either wait to file (like I need MORE pergatory stress) or not be allowed to pay for those expenses....which, by the way, were medical related but indirectly (which is why we didn't think of them when she first asked) - transportation to/from psychiatrist (in other town), psychologist appointments...etc.

So I am big time stressed. Again.  Does this ever end????  Maybe next time I will get sucked into the airplane engine!
