"There was a carnival in town and was on the ride with my husband and daughter, my husbands parents were there too. At one point I was on a ride by myself and tried to find them. Then at a different moment I was walking around town during the day wondering, and walked past a street where there was a group of people from the church I go to welcoming people and trying to grow a new building and congregation. The pastor and his wife was there and when he was nice to me, his wife would get weird and jealous about it as if he was flirting with me. One of the times we had gatherings, they handed out slime/playdough balls they gave out to everyone and mine got dirty and I wondered if we needed to give them back. At another gathering the pastor’s wife had a haircut and was talking to everyone and I told the pastor his wife is beautiful and he said thank you and agreed."

"Dreamt I had a friend over that was going through hard time with her husband. Then we were all going to a movie and she didn’t show up. Then we were all going somewhere and I couldn’t decide what to wear. Decided on burnt red color shirt and black pants. I didn’t want to be left behind. Then dream changes and I’m on an airplane be had to build a wall thing for me to go to the bathroom on the plane and there was a guy maybe with disabilities that was trying to get at me and claw at me. Eventually I talk him out of it and head back to my seat we were at a layover spot. We take off for flight again and the same guy is behind the pilot kicking the pilots chair and being loud. The pilot after take off starts to turn the plane around to land and says he can’t continue the flight right now and will land and take off for flight tomorrow as it was night time now. After unloading from the plane, I meet a group of people who help secure the plane after landing and begin talking with them and going for a walk around this small town we landed in. Then these big scary gray colored possibly chickens appeared and i ended up curled under one of them trapped between a few of their feet, managed to get up and started kicking at them to shoo them away"
