Speaking of Spooky, Have You Ever Had This Kind of Thing Happen?

11 years ago

I usually can connect my dreams to something concrete-
something that happened during the previous day,
or something on the news,
or something about which I'm worried.

Last night I dreamed that I was at a thrift store looking at jewelry & chatting with the cashier.

I told her that a certain necklace on her display stand reminded me of a friend who had died.

To my embarrassment (in the dream), I found myself misting up.

This afternoon, I saw that my favorite thrift store had a sale on books, so I stopped & got a few books.

When I got to the check-out, the cashier pointed at a necklace on a display stand & said,
"Look! This necklace is a lot like yours. Is yours Black Hills gold?"

I replied, "no, it's not, it's not *anything* really, it's just costume jewelry. It was given to me by an old friend" & I stopped right there, to keep myself from misting up in front of the cashier.

I have! I had a dream about a workmate whose circles I really didn't run in. When I saw him in our office, which was unusal in itself, I blurted out "I dreamed about you the other night!". My boss was horrified and told me I shouldn't have said that. I told them, No, I just saw him out in public someplace in the dream? That following Friday, I was out with a completely different person and we were walking around downtown, when we decided to stop into a hotel to use the restroom. The guy I dreamed about was there for his school reunion and had popped out to use the restroom. Of all the gin joints! Weird. And then I left with my date. I'm sure he was thinking what I was. Did that just happen? Or maybe he was thinking I was stalking him? Hopefully, he got the picture I wasn't when I left with the other guy (who was far more powerful, funnier, smarter..., surely would've preferred him)!

Exactly!

(ps: It doesn't matter if you told the guy you dreamed about him; guys think we dream about 'em all the time!)

Have you ever had your Jade do this?
Q
Comments (11)
There was a post on here about a month and a half ago with the same exact thing minus the roots. The jade was in a window where it wasn't getting enough light and so became droopy. The owner noticed this and moved the plant so that it was getting more light, and all of the branches turned toward the light. It's phototropism and it's normal. If could have happened if your plant wasn't getting enough light over winter and now is getting sufficient light with summer upon us. If the spot that is growing the roots is the part that is bending and is close to the soil, it doesn't shock me that there are roots there either. We know roots can grow just about anywhere on the jade. That's why we whack them and root them so readily. It may not be getting enough water and so is sending those out in search of water. Take a cutting and set it on a plate. It will send out roots pretty rapidly, especially at this time of year. Put it near soil that is slightly moist or put it in a humid room with no soil, and it will do it faster. At least this has been my experience.

This happened to me years ago and although it’s an old thread, I wanted to comment in case it help anyone. I experienced the same symptoms as most on this thread- I went to see all kinds of specialists but when I finally went to my general doctor, he fixed me. Literally made a difference in 15 min. He is a general practitioner but also certified to do manipulations which is different than a chiropractor. He did tests to see if I may have MS or carpel tunnel. But those target specific fingers. He then made me stand up and checked my back. BOOM! I had three ribs out of place. Finally after 6+ months of my right hand tingling and bruising, I had an answer. Dislocated ribs sometimes don’t cause pain BUT if they pinch the right nerve, it can cause all the symptoms to your arm and fingers. Popped blood vessels etc. he adjusted me (again, different from a chiropractor) and within 15 min I felt relief in my arm hand and fingers. Now, anytime I feel tingling, I go see him and sure enough, my rib is out. People can displace ribs with a sneeze. Sometimes it causes pain and other times you can’t even tell. A miracle for me.

Have you ever had a horrible very bad no good day?

Sorry you had a stinker of a day. I remember the day we went from having four cars to having one car in one day! Fortunately all due to breakdowns, not accidents, so you have to count your blessings. By the time I got a call that #3 had broken down, there was nothing left to do but laugh.

No, I've never been told I had a short conversation with someone during the night, but didn't remember it the next day. But I wouldn't be concerned, you were probably just in a sleep stage that allowed you to speak coherently, yet not retain memory of it in the morning. My younger sister used to laugh in her sleep. I shared a bedroom with her and my older sister, when we were young. When younger sister would start giggling, it would wake older sister and I up. But her giggling was so infectious that my other sister and I would start laughing. Then our younger sister would wake up and ask us what we were laughing about, because it had woken her up! My youngest son also laughed in his sleep often, and now my 7 year old grandson does as well, so maybe it runs in the family!

And this one more than most guys. Just a little (a lot!!!) arrogant. I laughed on the inside when my boss was horrified. I thought, Really?! NO way that would ever happen.

I think you dreamed it and then made it come true, Sylvia! You wore the necklace that was similar to the one in your dream and then you went to the thrift shop, also in your dream. It WAS a coincidence that the clerk noticed it and compared your necklace to one that was similar, though.

I've dreamed about places and then later, found myself in a place where I've never been before and felt like I knew it, because of the dream.

I have very active dreams, not always good ones, but one last night had me waking up laughing. I love those kinds!

I think there's so much we don't know about dreams. When you think of it, we dream about places and people we've never seen. Are we all that creative? Do we all have such skillful imaginations that we can invent buildings and furnishings, people and costumes, a myriad of details, and make them real? I don't think so. I think something besides our subconscious minds is at work.

I dream about two huge and old shumard oaks in the front yard of a childhood home. Such happy memories and dreams.

In one of the dreams of this yard, my mom and I were riding motorcycles around the neighborhood, on some sort of 'mission'.

You have no idea how funny the thought of mom on a motorcycle is to me!

I had a recurring dream in my teens, that happened half a dozen times a year, until a 'grand finale' dream finally ended it's recurrence.

I dreamt I was babysitting my younger siblings one night and had put them to bed. I notice a light from my parents bedroom, so went in to shut it off. But I see the lid of the cedar chest at the foot of their bed is open, so I sit down on the bed. Inside it they kept (same in real life) my father's police marksmanship trophies, and containers of loose family photos that weren't yet put into albums.

I pick up a container and start taking out photos, one at a time. The first photos I pull out are the latest ones taken, so they are in colour. As I continue taking them out, the colour begins to fade on each successive photo, until they are simply black and white, as they are now depicting (real) events/family from before I was born.

The dream ends with me picking up a photo by the back, and starting to turn it over to see the actual picture. I never get to turn the photo around, before I either wake up, or simply morph into a different dream. It became very annoying, having this same dream for almost 14 years, and never getting to see what was on the front side of that dang photo!

The good news is, when I was almost 30, and pregnant with my first child, I had the dream one night and finally got to turn over the photo and see what was on it! The bad news is, it made no difference. The photo was only a picture of me, starting to turn over a photo! I'm about 16 in the pic, which is the same age I was when I first started having this dream, and I am in my parents' old bedroom, pulling the photo out of their open cedar chest.

I have never had that dream again, so I guess my subconscious considered the dream 'concluded' just because I got to turn over the photo. But it still annoys me that I never got to see the actual picture, lol!
