1/3/23 Dating Jack Nicolson

Jack has two jobs. He is the weather reporter on TV and he also drives a city bus. I have just started dating him. I am painting his bedroom white. It is in an old, stately house. I have finished three walls and have one more to paint. I meet his X wife or wives. They are nice women.

I catch a bus with a couple other people that Jack usually drives. A couple are subbing for Jack. A nerdy friend also subs for Jack on the weather report. He messes up and it is funny to watch.

Jack is quiet, mysterious and off on his own a lot.

Notes: Watch movie, About Schmidt starring Jack Nicolson and Kathy Bates. Jack’s character in the movie is similar to my dream. It got me to look at how we all take ourselves so seriously and that it’s important to laugh at ourselves and each other! James Hollis suggested the movie. He talks about taking risks in life and feeling we make a difference. We need to use our gift(s) and do what our souls are asking.

1/1/23 Police Woman

A young police woman accuses me of steeling something that has three letters on it. I go to prison for a few years.

Now the police woman and I are older. (I am also an observer in this dream). Now a young woman steals things from a Catholic Church like a chalice, etc. I am with a few others. We call the police and tell them where we last saw the woman; what side of the church she was last in.

The woman has hidden herself in this blanket in the woods. The police woman finds her. I get the feeling the police woman has empathy for her.

Notes: I just found on 12/31/22 that my sister, Becky’s, husband died on Wednesday. My sister, Molly, told me what happened. Becky didn’t want Molly to tell anyone else in the family, but on Friday, she asked Becky again and she said, “If you have to..” Becky then flew to Hawaii on Saturday-a trip she and her husband had already booked.

There is something about this dream that has to do with me forgiving Becky from the past-shunning me.

12/30/22 Lost

I am with Dan, Edi, Sheila and Rob. We go to this large, hotel complex. We are to go to one of the restaurants. There are large, Tarot-like cards and well as regular cards. There are electronic cards also. We are to pick a card to see what percentage of discount we can get on our meals.

I go over with Edi and pick an electronic card. Edi leaves and takes my phone. I then go to find them. They have already been seated. I go to each dining room looking for them. I don’t see them anywhere. I then get lost in the labyrinth of hallways and rooms. Part of the complex is an elementary school.

I then sit for awhile with a mother and her higher elementary aged daughter to have a cup of tea. The mother asks if I want to play a card game. I say yes. It is a matching game like Go Fish with large pictures on the cards with abstract designs. We then leave and the mother pays for my tea.

Now I am with the same woman, but instead of the daughter, her son is there. They are across the aisle from me. It feels like we are on a bus. I see a good sized, orange and white snake on the ground close to the boy. I tell the mother. The snakes starts climbing up the boy. The mother opens her purse and takes out a good sized, black and white snake. The white and orange snake raises its head, opens its mouth, and the woman feeds the black and white snake into its mouth.

Two other snakes then come out of the woman’s purse. These snakes start to move towards me. They then turn into inanimate, abstract sculptures. I shoo them away.

I find a man who works at the hotel and ask him how to get back to the restaurant part of the hotel. I get into the back of his old, black car and he drives me there. I go into the building and see everyone waiting for me. They are worried.
