The first dream I had last night was in a home I used to live in. My husband apparently lived there alone in the dream. It was TRASHED and his mother was coming to clean for him. I was emptying full ashtrays that were all over the house. I was disgusted.

The second dream was of me in bed and 2 cats were trying to jump up on me while i was sleeping. I kept batting them down and they kept trying to jump on me.

the last dream was of me in a hotel. I was going in and out of doors and up elevators and up stairs. I would open a door and be out on a ledge really high up above a party going on below.

We were on some stairs and she was telling me something that I cant quite remember. I do remember he apologizing for something. Then we were talking about a pair of shoes she had and something about her mother and her daughter Heaven. I cant quite remember what we were talking about.
