All over the place and yet pretty typical

Date: 11/26/2022

The first thing I remember is being at MeeMaw's house. Post-Thanksgiving. I've dreamt of this place quite a bit, though mostly the kitchen. I can't remember why I'm in the kitchen but I hear someone from the fam - think it was my sister - exclaimed that the freezer smelled terrible. The refrigerator is not the one they have. This one is split down the middle vertically, freezer on the right. Sister opened the freezer door and the smell came. I think. I didn't smell anything. But when I checked inside, there were a couple of bags of blue, unfrozen liquid. At least one was open and spilling everywhere. I tried to stem the flow but it was too late. Gushed out of the bag into the freezer and on the floor. I didn't smell anything or feel anything particularly cold. There was a golden light in the freezer illuminating the space. I don't know what the liquid was. I don't know how it was a liquid after being in the freezer. Even my sister was confused, stating the same. I suppose it could have been stored recently with too short a time to freeze, but the impression was it should have been frozen. I recall seeing it spill out of the freezer onto the floor. --------- I don't recall much about this part but I remember Mom was going to take us swimming. I'm pretty sure I was still an adult in this dream, but I either wouldn't or couldn't on my own. I remember thinking that even if we left at 3pm we'd only have an hour of daylight so I was wondering what the point would even be of going. And we were also having dinner, and it was 9:24pm. Unsure if related in a weird dream way or if another separate dream. --------- The final bit of my dream was pretty familiar. Rudy and I were at a lake. We wanted to get to the other side. I don't think we were wearing clothes for swimming but we got into the water to swim to the other side. Unsurprisingly, it didn't seem like my idea and I mentioned something about going around and staying dry. Obviously, it had no effect as we swam. The area was surrounded by trees. I could see part of the shore across the way, though I don't think it was the end of the lake. I think I'm holding on the Rudy as we go, and he's telling me at one point that the bottom was reachable. I put my feet down successfully on, thankfully, not a super bad place for naked feet. I could feel the edges of rocks but with the buoyancy of the water, it was manageable. Again not sure if same dream, but we ended up in a forested area. Not super dense, but lots of trees. The sun was higher in the sky and it was brighter. The trees blocked out any direct sunlight for us, though I could see the land below in the light. seemed like a river spot but I can't be sure. The intended location was a ways down. The area we were standing on was basically a cliff with soft dirt on the more level surfaces. This is why the little kitten in my dream was having issues making it over a small ledge. It would jump and slide back down. I didn't realize it was a kitten (I thought it was an adult) until I saw its Mom sitting atop the ledge. The kitten was black and floofy, like its mother. I watched it try to climb up a couple times before spotting Mom off to the left, waiting. It felt like one of those situations that the progeny had to figure out, but the parent would be close by just in case. It finally made it up over the ledge. They both looked at me and I could see Momma had silver hairs speckled throughout her coat. After witnessing this, I returned to my task. We were going to find a way down. Like a community landmark or something, there was a kiddie pool just FILLED with dice. The kind you would use for MTG or DnD. they were mostly white, though I recall blue and maybe red. I could read the numbers on them in the dream but don't remember any number other than 4. Some of them were weirdly shaped, like a long rectangle instead of a cube or other standard geometric shapes. I remarked on how cool that was, and sort of looked underneath it. I could see rolls of duct tape - pretty kind, sitting there beyond reach. I wondered how, and also why.
