Dream Journal

Returning to my new home after not seeing it for a few weeks, I found the builders had actually mostly finished it! It had seemed an eternal construction project in which little progress was ever made. But now, it was almost done! The main focus in the dream was the basement level, which we had requested be made to give it a little more space. We descended into it to find room after room, fully furnished. We hadn’t asked them to do this, and I wondered at the cost, but it was rather nice. There was one two-story room, all white, mostly empty, with no natural light. A meeting room, maybe? We continued. It went on and on. Some of it was very posh, which I didn’t like. There was a room with people in white suits walking around with slices of pizza on platters. I found the servant’s kitchen they were coming from, which was huge and filled with things. Two cooks were in there. There was a larger kitchen for us attached. It eventually connected to a bustling Best Buy. Outside the Best Buy was a paved pathway in a forested area like a well-kept college town. I was rather delighted by this part.

It was way too much! I wondered at not only the cost to build but the cost to simply live there and pay taxes. I zoomed out at one point to see the house again, the new wooden fence around it, and the new gate. For a moment I saw the dilapidated old garage, thinking they should have taken it down, but then “refreshed my vision” by looking around and then back, and it was gone. This was a mansion! I could never afford to live here. I zoomed out to look at the house, trying to place its location, and couldn’t get a good read on it. I could see the house next door, but it was unfamiliar. It didn’t seem to be in the Woods Neighborhood or the New Town neighborhood.
