Thread: I saw my dog who passed in my LD this morning :-)

Some of you might recall that my 12 1/2 year old Bichon "Bailey" had to be put down this past April but I had the following dream this morning.

I was letting my dogs out to do their morning "business" and as I went out into the sunlit yard I noticed that there were THREE dogs when there should have only been two.. Brianna (Bailey's sister) and Bijoux (the new Bichon puppy).

I walked over to the third dog and said "Bailey?" She looked up at me and I scooped her up and held her to my chest softly saying "Bailey" over and over. It was then that I knew that I was dreaming and that I was lucid.. I held her for a while and then gently put her down.

For some reason I thought I need to do the July Lucid Task of the Month (asking "where am I?)". It didn't dawn on me until I woke up that today was the first day of AUGUST!!

Anyhoo, I decided I needed to find people. I looked around and saw in the distance that there was a huge field behind my house and a large group of guys were playing football. They were not in uniform/pads but I could tell a serious game was going on.

I took large flying leaps towards the field and once, while in mid air, I looked back at my yard and saw the small white shapes of my dogs.. all three of them...

I landed near the edge of the field and I tried to talk to some of the guys but they ignored me.. they were so intent on playing their game.

I've never been a big football fan.. but I knew what I had to do. I walked down to the end of the field and saw that the quarterback had thrown a pass to a receiver at my end of the field. I ran full speed and intercepted the pass! I just took it inches from the receiver's grasp.

I twisted around and started to run towards the opposite end of the field. I dodged and leaped over players and spun away from tackles. I was freakin' unbelievable!!! I ran into the end zone for a touchdown!

I casually dropped the ball and walked over to one of the guys and said "I'm lost.. can you tell me where I am?" He just stood there kindof stunned and didn't say anything. They all just stood there in shock.. staring.

I thought that I had woken up as I was back in bed next to my husband and I told him that I had dreamed of seeing Bailey.. but then I realized that my bedroom wasn't right. There were brown closet doors with white trim and I realized that I was having a false awakening as we don't have a closet in the bedroom.. and then I woke up for real.

Well I was too late for the July task but I am soo grateful for this LD as I got to hold my Bailey again.
