The view from my world today is nightmares.
I don't often have nightmares, or at least I don't remember having them. But there are times when I wake up and I am scared. I usually pull up the blankets and listen carefully for unexplained noises. Then I try to fall back asleep.
But the strangest nightmare happened to me this week.
I realized I was having a scary dream and so I wasn't truly terrified. It was more like I was enjoying a scary movie. In my dream, a person was plotting to kill me and so I began to yell for help.
Little did I realize, but I was actually yelling in my sleep.
I felt so embarrassed as I was brought back to the land of the awakened to find my daughter peering at me and asking me if I was ok. "Sure" I answered. Then she told me that she heard me yelling for help.
Ugh.
Have you had troublesome nightmares lately?

Nightmares are no fun, especially if you come from a family of sleep-talkers - like I do.
I haven't in a bit, but I have had nightmares that I groan and moan in my sleep but I never remember what the dream might be about. Interestingly, might be hereditary as my mom did the same thing. They indeed can be scary!
