Crazy Dreams

So I've had a couple of crazy, not so fun dreams lately...

Last night I dreamed that my principal made me teach first grade with only a day or two notice. I couldn't get them to listen and they kept wandering off. Not only was I teaching 1st grade but I also still had to teach 6th grade math so I didn't get a prep time as I had to go to another class. I was very relieved when the school day was over so I left and was getting on the freeway when I glanced down at my clock and noticed that it was only 10:30 so school wasn't out yet so I had to turn around and go back, but before I did, I got out of my car to take a breather and let out some frustration and my car kept going at freeway speed so I started running after it. I thought it was going to run into something so I was somewhat relieved that I would be able to catch it but it went around and kept going. I couldn't find my car, it was no where to be found. It was quite traumatizing but I can't decided which was worse, losing the car or teaching 1st and 6th grade.

Last week, my dream had my principal looking for a new teacher to hire for 5th grade at the school (he really was by the way, but also in my dream). He couldn't find anyone that would mesh with the teachers already in 5th grade so he made me teach 5th and put the new teacher in my current position.

So, can you tell that school is starting next month and I have it on the brain right now trying to get ready? I never dream about school this much!

Wow. You need to step back and breath deeply. Then plan something so awesomely fun/crazy/exciting and then execute said plan so you have something less stressful to dream about. Or just take a Valium before bed. That should knock you out. Good luck.
