I had a dream that Wendell died. In my dream he had already been gone for awhile. I was walking with some dude in a muddy field. We were on our way to go check something out. I can't remember now what it was. I started talking about Wendell. I told the guy about how Wendell had been such a great husband. I felt so sad . . he was gone . . . forever. No Wendell . . . forever. My heart ached.
As I slowly emerged from my dream state, I realized . . . OMG . . . it was a dream. Just a dream. What a relief.
I sat up . . . and just sat there at the edge of the bed . . . thinking . . . and crying.
After awhile I finally stood up and started getting dressed to go take Kona out for our morning walk. But I couldn't stop crying.
Wendell's alarm went off and he got up. I said to him, "I can't stop crying." He said, "Huh?" I said, "I had a dream that you died and I can't stop crying." He said, "Oh." He stood up, grabbed a newspaper, headed into the bathroom and farted.
I laughed . . .

Classic! He knows how to make you happy when you're feeling sad...wasn't it a great feeling when you figured out is was just a dream??
It was such a relief, Les!
I've had dreams like that and wake up sobbing! That was a hilarious ending to such a dramatic wake up! LOL
Oh Jos, I know . . . sooooo sad. And yes, that Wendell, proving that life goes on . . .
scary! but funny at the end!
Kat, I was kinda had-it all day because of that scary start.
I don't necessarily have dreams, however when Gerry is really late coming in from a bicycle ride, all kinds of thoughts run through my head. It is a very welcome relief when I hear him on the screened porch putting his bike away So glad your dream wasn't true!!
So funny. When was that photo taken? It is so cool!
I know exactly what you mean Betty!
Erick, I used that picture for our Christmas card in 1988.
Jalna, having lost a partner suddenly in my life...please dont dwell on this dream, instead focus on doing something to show how much you love your husband ..
Life is fragile but perhaps this dream was a reminder to rejoice in what you have now :)
haven't had one of those dreams in awhile. scary! usually shakes me up for a few days but your husband's "response" was hilarious!
love the family picture.
Awww Anon, I'm so sorry for your loss. You're right . . . I need to live more in the now, and not dwell so much on sad endings.
Thanks Grace. It WAS scary and so sad.
I too, have such weird dreams. Some are scary and some are sad. It always makes me think though, what was the meaning for this dream.
Reading what Wendell did after you told him, made me lmao.
