This time last year, my mom was still in the long term care home after her surgery in the late summer. Hurricane Matthew was about to hit us and what did she worry about? Me and my pets. I was worried about her place flooding, but it did not.
Had a dream about her last night, I am betting that having the TV on talking about the storm might have triggered it. I dreamed that she wanted some paperwork to send to get a refund for something on her taxes. My mom kept very accurate accurate records in reality, but in this dream she kept asking me where I had put it, and I kept putting it down and forgetting where I had put it. In the dream I was mad at myself for misplacing it because I didn't want to disappoint her.
While it was a dream, in reality, my mom constantly worried about me, her putting things where they go was something that never rubbed off on me. And I was always worried about her big appointments, like missing a turn or getting lost going to Duke. Every time she had a big appointment I could not sleep the night before.
I am thinking the news story got into my dream because I remembered fearing getting stuck back then and not being able to get to her. I had to go home because of my pets.
