Dream Journal Ultimate

This dream was unreal and sooooo cool. I was in a small apartment on a first floor of a building. The apartment had two floors (possibly) and the basement had sliding doors to a shared courtyard. The apartment was just given to our family, inherited or we bought it but I was in there in the basement and it's seemed kind of messy with the last person's things. It wasn't like it was packed up but kind of lived in and abandoned as is. My dad was there at one point and I think I asked him to leave...or maybe my mom and dad were both milling around on the top floor, I was in the basement. There was a cat with me that had the face of Garfield's dad and was an orange tabby, someone he looked and seemed perfectly normal but had that cartoon man's face...almost like a doll come to life. It was walking around and I layed down on the single mattress in the corner of the room. I could literally draw this entire floor I remember so much detail. So I started doing some psychic activity...I thought, if I close my eyes, I can imagine myself doing absolutely anything in vivid detail. The first thing I did was imagine I was swimming in water and I moved through the entire apartment as if it was filled with water and I could breathe the water. I was slinking through hallways and doing backflips and swimming up and down without touching the floor. Eventually this turned into swimming in the actual ocean near the bottom in a shallow area. I could see the reefs and little animals and seaweed...the waves above my head. I woke up from this and realized I was only in the bed with my eyes closed and I hadn't even moved. I thought, if I can do that I can do anything so I decided to fly! I lay there, close my eyes, concentrate a little bit and I am hundreds of feet above the tallest buildings in a city, like I'm a seagull! The detail of the top of the buildings was incredible...like you know how you can never capture detail in a picture like you can with your eyes? This was like seeing it with my own eyes. I remained in this vision for a very short time as I felt afraid of the heights. I think I did one more vision after this or was planning on falling into one when I see the door of the crate in the back corner by the patio door move (again - I saw it wiggle earlier). As I'm looking at this crate, suddenly the door pops open and 3 full sized dogs pop out and 4 cats! I get up as fast as I can, feeling awful for the animals and immediately open the patio door for them to go outside and stretch and run and pee and poop - whatever they need to do! Fresh air, freedom. The cats mostly stay inside but two of the dogs bolt. In my head I'm thinking, these dogs might not be well trained because they had been left there by the previous owner. I walk out into the yard, it's winter and there's a little snow on the ground, and watch one of the dogs bolting so hard he runs right through the wooden fence, smashing a small hole in it. As I watch him I can tell he doesn't know what to do once he is there so he comes back to the house.n The dogs are all friendly and well mannered, not abused or sick or anything. I felt awful because they must have been in there for 4 or 5 days and so squished!!! I was kind of excited because I felt like I was going to keep all 3 dogs and all 4 cats plus my Garfield cat and my life would look really different from then on. My mom was considering taking one of the dogs. The end!
