Time travel? Sad dream.
I had one of those weird dreams last night where I went back in time. Things were a bit confused, as dreams always are. I was a young woman in my late twenties, and my son was with me, but he was only about 5 years old. We were at church, on some kind of island.
My brother showed up, and he was a younger man in his late thirties, dressed in a scarlet velvet jacket. He wanted us to come with him, and for some reason I couldn't open the door. I told him I would be right there.
In the dream, we were back in Nebraska. I was thrilled, because I wanted to go and visit my paternal grandmother. I asked my son if he wanted to go with me to visit her. (In real life, and real non-dream time, today is my sons birthday!) He didn't remember her, and he asked if my mother could come and visit her with us, too.
I told him that my mother, (his grandmother), was always off visiting other people, and that we would have to go to see my own grandmother by ourselves.
My brother had gone quite a way across a nearby field, headed toward a small twin engine airplane, and I called to him to let him know we were coming. He turned around, to wait for us. I was so glad he was there, because I was a bit lost, and I knew he would be able to find my grandmothers house.
And then I woke up. I was so groggy that I was confused, and for a few minutes, I actually thought that my paternal grandmother was still alive, and that I had genuinely been looking forward to a visit with her. And when I realized that she had died, a very long time ago, it was as though I had just learned the sad news. I have been a bit weepy for two hours now.
I visited my genealogy website shortly after waking up, because I couldn't even remember the year of her death. (1980). And then I was upset all over again because I don't actually know where she was buried, and there is no record of it.
One thing that cheered me was calling my son to wish him a happy birthday, and he actually called me back and we spoke for a few minutes. Poor guy. On his birthday, he has to fly to Dallas to train someone who is just starting at their Dallas offices.
And now I am just fine, if a tiny bit weepy now and then...I got through the weird dream and I am still as ornery as ever!!! 🤣🤣🤣
