I made a decision when Josh and I started this blog to not blog about wedding planning, but have decided to make an exception for my wedding dreams (ok, anxiety dreams, fine). The first one hit me many many months ago and involved the ring bearer (cutie Dylan) dropping the ring into Rock Creek during the processional. While I remained calm, Josh and his and my Dad completely panicked and stormed the creek to retrieve the ring. Overall, a pretty funny one.
This of course was followed by several dreams of Josh dumping me. The best one was when I was in a room with Josh and several friends and Josh blurts out that it’s over between us and he wishes I would leave the room. Devasted, I ask why, “Why, Josh, Why!!” He replies that among other things several of his friends and family have always disapproved of me. When I ask who these people are he says “Grandma Ruby.” Which is hystercial because when Grandma Ruby found out I was from Billings the woman instantly declared that I was the one Josh should marry. I started yelling “But Grandma Ruby loves me!” . . . and then I woke up.
A week before my first dress fitting I dreamed about a dress fitting where I was fitted in an enormous poofy red, orange, and yellow dress (yes, these are my wedding colors) with a huge and equally poofy hat to match. It was kind of like the dress the Queen of Hearts has on in Alice in Wonderland. When I cried out “this isn’t my dress” the dress women said in a creepy, evil way “oh, yes, it is Amy” After more arguing they bring me a pink lacy dress that looks quite cute on me and I start to twirl around until I woke up.
I haven’t had a wedding dream for several weeks (a good sign I think)! However, I did have a dream last night that a helipcopter landed on my neighbors house and military and red cross volunteers poured out from it. When I asked the helicopter people what was going on they wouldn’t say and took my perplexed neighbors (who are very nice people) away in the helicopter. I have no idea what this dream means but it was just so odd I felt like I had to share it.
P.S. I’m starting a prescription of Ambien today 
oh Amy!!!! Sorry for the dreams – I had them too. Not that this makes you normal (because I am not claiming to be that)… but at least you aren’t alone.
