Vandalism & Showers

In my dream, I had made two very large paintings: two women in flowy dresses that were not in color. Someone had suggested I add color and I replied "That might be nice but I don't have time, the exhibition is tomorrow and adding color would take a long time."
That night I see the paintings outside and some people who I had allowed to help me had foolishly tried to add color without my permission. I was furious because now I HAD to add the color and I didn't have the time. I kept feeling like I should get to work on it so I could get them done in time but delay after delay prevented me from just getting to work... soon I realized that I needed to get ready for the exhibition. I needed to take a shower and get dressed.
The house I was in was huge and, as is often the case in my dreams, the house had many additional secret rooms. I felt tricky because I knew of these other rooms, so despite the fact that all of the obvious showers were already occupied... I felt sure I could get a shower without having to wait. Each "secret" bathroom that I located was already occupied... I must have crept through a dozen different passageways and every time I thought I had found a place to shower; someone else was already taking one there.
I knew I would never have enough time to finish my paintings for the exhibition at this rate.

It was a really bizarre dream.

hahaha.... but aren't they all?

Cell Phone Dream

In my dream, I kept trying to call my husband on my cell phone but each time I tried to dial the familiar number, I kept fumbling with the buttons... getting it wrong each time I tried. I was getting sooo agrivated. I spent way too long dialing and redialing, each time dialing it wrong. I couldn't understand why it was so difficult for me to dial a number I had dialed a million times before.
I couldn't reach him and there was no one or nothing to blame; it was my own inability standing in my way- truly frustrating.
