Had a few dreams that might have been connected. First I was in a diner type restaurant that might have been a hotel restaurant. There was an invasion of alien plants they weren't killing people like "Invasion of the body snatchers" or "Day of the Triffids", but people were oddly affected.
Next dream that might have been associated with the first one, the world had slipped into being a dystopia because of the power of the leftist agendas. I was secretly running through some kind of warehouse on some kind of mission. What the mission was I don't know. There was one scene where I was avoiding some kind of mechanical security system that was wrecking the rooftop or shelving that it was operating from.
This next bit I don't think was connected at all. I was at some kind of outdoor restaurant with long picnic type tables that were sitting on a lawn of muddy grass, I don't know what type of food was being served, but that didn't keep bugs and frogs and snakes from being everywhere. I think some family members had been dining with me but they left and I started to leave but started looking for something? At one point I got my hands all muddy and started looking to clean them off. There was the cement base for an outdoor water fountain but no fountain, and all the little ponds and puddles around didn't have enough water to wash off.

I was having breakfast I think with my family at a small tea shop. It had a large board that had the menu on it like a fast food place and showed all the different egg and pancake styles. There was one pancake choice called "Dab" or "Dap" or "Dob" or "Dop" or something similar that was a small stack of pancakes in the shape of a muffin (flat of course). My mother asked me what I was going to get and added something about eggs being bad for me or my condition. I was thinking about getting pancakes anyway. Then the waiter was Donald Trump. Later I was in a labyrinth of hallways like in a sports arena or storage unit complex. I saw the kitchen area and Trump was gathering an order and said something about something on the order needing to be wet. That was the end of that dream.
Another dream I went to some kind of show at a High School it might have been a local community theater production. It started out in an outside area that was sort of like a loading dock area. There were some modified cars and carts that were dressed up like Star Wars land speeder racing pods. The action then moved on down the road along some railroad tracks where the audience were in buses and trains? There were some solo speeches along the side of the road/track. I have no idea what the main show was supposed to be. Then we returned to the school building. I had to go back to the ticketing area for something and that was the dream.

I had a dream where my brother wanted to show me something very funny. It was a tax form the size of a billboard, which a man had written on it in blue permanent marker various reasons about why he shouldn't be paying taxes at all. Some of the reasons were so out there that they were hilarious! The very last reason he gave was simply "...because I exist." When I woke up, I asked my brother about the big tax form with the blue writing on it that he'd shown me. He had absolutely no idea what I was talking about.

Had a dream that had a similar overall theme to dreams I have had in the past, preparing for a community theater performance of some kind. In reality it has been 12 years since I've been involved with any community theater production, and about 9 or 10 since I've seen one live. The venue seemed to be part airport, part early 20th century hotel, part small capacity school auditorium. I had to hunt for my costumes and props in several rooms and areas, nothing for anyone was set where they were needed. One costume item I was looking for was a gray suit coat that I couldn't find so I was looking through coats that I could use. The situation was so strange that there were a few audience members who were complaining about the venue not being ready for the show yet. I also vaguely recall one of my friends who I met through theater doing something but I don't recall what, maybe I was just talking to him.

First I had a "work" dream. It started off I was at my desk (I was wearing jeans so casual Friday) and I got up to get dressed for the day? Odd, but there was an area in the office that was like a small hotel suite. So I started getting ready, there were also other people in the area but I don't recall what was going on or being said. Then the dream shifted or ended.
Not sure if this next part was part of the same dream I don't think it was but had the same theme of me getting ready for work. I was in what was supposed to be my apartment starting my day getting ready for work. I was outside of my bathroom with the door shut (in reality I keep the door open most of the time) the bathroom in the dream had a storage loft above it. Kind of like when a warehouse or storage facility will have a bathroom or small storage closet off to the side with just regular sized walls and it's own ceiling or covering. I was hearing kids talking loudly and laughing and just being teenagers, the sound was coming from either the unit above the bathroom or next door. Then the hallway that in the dream normally was supposed to just end was opened up into a front entry for some posh early to mid 20th century house/hotel with a large open staircase off to one side. Looking toward the "front door" of the room, which was technically supposed to be the back end of the apartment, on the left was the large stairway simple straight wooden with nice white hand railing I think there was a nice 2nd floor balcony type landing above the area of the apartment hallway I came from. Slightly to the right of the bottom of the stairs was the "front" white French style door then a medium sized old style wooden rollup desk 19th Century or earlier maybe and a window or two with white trim and thin white lacy type drapes/curtains. The teens who had been making noise earlier all ran down the stairs and out the door. By the desk was a modern wheeled office chair with arms but I forget the style because there was a letterman style jacket draped across it and I picked up a light weight dark blue cardigan sweater off of the floor.
I went back to the hallway and after the stairs there now was a door that I didn't know had been there before. I love these dreams where I find a "secret" passageway. So there is this new door I had never seen in the hall of my "apartment" in the doorway was a brown leather armless chair or couch blocking entry to this new secret room. I climbed over it and entered the room that in dreamlike fashion impossibly was about 10-15 to the right about 5 or 6 feet from the door to the opposite wall and about another 15 feet to the left. It was filled with exercise equipment and furniture pieces of all shapes and sizes that all had this brown leather covering and metal frames. I somehow knew that most of this stuff was very old from the early 20th century and older. The room also impossibly had a section above and behind the door I had entered and to the left was an ever larger room, all of these rooms and areas were littered with this strange assortment of equipment and furniture. Just to the right of the door was an old light switch that was stripped of it's "switches" and it's panel but apparently still worked. I'm not sure how long I explored all this but that seemed to be it for the dream. My only interaction with anyone during this dream was witnessing the kids race down the stairs and out the door.
This next bit was part of some other dream completely might have been either before or after I had those other dreams in another part of my sleep cycle. I don't recall much except for some woman with a gun, either a hand gun or small short rifle. She had short straight blonde hair wore a light green t-shirt and she was by a doorway next to a bookshelf. I was in a nearby room with some people and there were a couple of versions of the scene. The first was this woman with the gun surprised everyone and began shooting, but also there was a version where she was going to shoot but disappeared before she got to near the bookshelf, there was a final version where I walked to the door she was near and body slammed her knocking her out. All three versions were separate yet I think happened at the same time. Sort of like when a time traveler goes back in time to try to correct some event and fails, then has to go back or is forced back to repeat the event to try again, but it wasn't a time travel redo.

The people I live with and I got a new house 10 miles away. It was still in Pennsylvania But the area we moved to, it looked like we were in the desert in California like Victorville but it was still Pennsylvania.
A rich multi-millionaire relative of our next door neighbor came by and offered to fully pay the mortgage of a new house because they insisted on living next door to their relatives. We accepted their offer and moved into another house about 10-15 miles away.

I dreamt i went back to the seattle area to visit my family.
My niece that moved to Arkansas in 2016 had moved back and owned her own home. Except it wasn't a house, condo, apartment, etc.
She bought a office building and turned it into her house. There was a total of 17 rooms.
There were 20 but She had 3 rooms torn down to have an indoor pool.
Unfortunately i was arrested for trespassing because she had friends living there and she failed to tell them I was her uncle visiting from Pennsylvania

It was a night where I had a few of those dreams where I knew I had a dream but couldn't remember the details just maybe some vague images that I couldn't remember. I only remembered the next bit.
I was sitting at a desk in the corner of a room at a friend's house his black cat was walking and playing on the desk. I was looking at the cat and gave it a little boo like "blahh" at its face. It got a quick look of shock on its face with its eyes opening wide and it collapsed and died. I was shocked and immediately started apologizing and took the cat into my hands. It was now a little white file card and I was saying "I'm sorry". I put it down on the inside corner of the desk by the wall corner. Then the cat was now a little bean bag cat that was really thin and it started to move and "wake up".

I was at home. My room-mate was babysitting her son's 3 kids. The oldest daughter, 8, used "F**ked" in a sentence and immediately I'm blamed for it. My Room-mate said "Kids repeat everything they hear."
I replied "Keyword - Everything. Which means she'd have to have learned that entire sentence from me! When do I ever use it in a sentence like that?"
She realized I was right.

I had two dreams last night that don’t appear to have any connection but blended into each other. One involved me going to a hayride/haunted house attraction that is taking down all its Halloween decorations. One prop, though, is still up: a supposed time machine (which looks more like a woodshed) that doesn’t actually transport you in time but just somehow does a virtual reality thing that makes you think you’re back in time. I go inside and try to figure out the time-travel dial. Then I open the door for some reason and see a young family, and the mother says, “Would you mind if my son uses the time machine?” I say of course and get out, and I tell the mother I hope he can figure the time machine out better than I can. That somehow shifted into a dream where I’m at the Plaza hotel in Manhattan. I must have sneaked in because I have this feeling throughout the dream that I’m not supposed to be there. I wander the hallways and find a small room where the hotel once had (and probably still has, in real life?) a picture of the character Eloise. I see that the hotel has removed the picture, which gets me sad about how everything I liked is changing or gone. (This is a recurring theme of my dreams.) I then see a door open that is not supposed to be open. I go through and find a grand staircase, which (I realize) is usually supposed to be hidden, that goes up to what was the Oak Room. Alas, both in real life and the dream, the Oak Room is gone. In the dream, it has been replaced by an ugly, modernist bar decorated almost completely in red, with large glass panels that contain red gloop and look like lava lamps. That just makes me sadder. I guess they’re both connected by the time-travel, sic-transit-gloria-mundi themes. Now that I think of it, the “time machine” looked like a woodshed at a family friend’s cabin that my family used to use but that the friend sold not too long ago. So many family members have been telling me recently about how much they miss that cabin. So, there ya go, I solved my dreams. This thread is therapy!

Background: when I was in my early teens, we used to spend two weeks in the summer at this vacation spot at the beach, and for a number of years this other family with four daughters was always there at the same time. I had a major crush on the second daughter, but I was young and shy so I never did anything about it. She was my first big unrequited love, if you will.
The dream then: I was with my mother and the girl’s father. We were having lunch. My mother and him were catching up. I wanted to know about C., the second daughter with whom I had been in love all those decades ago, but I didn’t want to ask directly just about her, so as not to give any indication that I liked her. So I asked about the oldest daughter first, if she was married, if she had children, how she was doing. Then I asked about C., and was disheartened to find out that she was married, and had been for a long time. I asked about the third daughter - divorced, with children, and then about the youngest.
I just realised that their father was a dentist in real life (though never my dentist) and that just yesterday I had been to the dentist. It’s probably related to why my subconscious dug him up.

As usual I had multiple dreams but when the night was said and done I can only recall one of them with enough detail to attempt to describe. Oddly when I first woke from dreaming I recalled the dream, then upon another night time awakening couldn't recall it, but fortunately when I fully awoke for today once again I remember the main theme and a few details. The dream started in the midst of the event. My apartment was being remodeled and building management didn't tell me. Some of my recycling was straight up thrown away and I think some things that were neither trash nor recycling were also tossed away. The kitchen was lengthened and some wall paper pattern, with a bright white background with bright green and yellow maybe some orange flowers, was placed over everything even on the floor. In one of the living areas a wide area had various electronic devices and parts laid out (and on the walls I think) and displayed. It looked like a catalog page or store peg board display. Not sure what things were or where they were going to be used. There was also a bit where I was sitting in the living room and heard some of the workers trying several keys to get into the front door of the apartment.

I'm talking with a very short man. Suddenly my friend walks toward us and shakes hand with the short man. My friend's handshake is so strong that he breaks the short man's hand. He didn't mean to do that. It was an accident.

It was a night of several dreams here is what I remember somewhat in order:
I was performing in some kind of show, a musical maybe, in a large barn. I don't recall details of the show only that the barn was fairly large and clean more like a community center than a "working" barn.
Next I'm driving in a semi-rural suburban area, there is also a football (NFL) game going on that I am aware of. I'm not sure if I was seeing the game on a video screen or if I was supposed to be in both places. I think the driving had some kind of pattern to it but I don't recall specifics I barely recalled a driving scene.
Next it is late evening time I am on a bus and just missed the stop I was supposed to get off of. I begin thinking I will have to ride through most of the route again but will also need to catch the last bus that is going to where I need to be.
I think there was another bit that had something to do with my childhood home that for some reason my family still had an interest in it.
Finally there was something about my oldest friend, in terms of the non-family person I have known the longest, not necessarily the oldest aged person I know. I don't know what that dream part was about.

I was working in or owned some kind of store, it was some kind of general store like a physical Ebay store. I was thinking of closing the store due to lack of sales, then a huge rush of people came in, but they were starting to shoplift. I gave chase to them yelling things that were intended to get them to feel guilty. I said to someone who was working for/with me, as some kind of security, that I needed more security staff. I was able to round some of the shoplifters up and hold them for the police. The dream ends there.
There were a few other dreams but I can't recall them now.

I dreamt I was at a town show, and they were going to have an Iron Man Contest. Since they said it was open to anybody, I decided to compete, until I discovered it was only for current or former armed forces members, despite the advertisement stating otherwise. I didn't want to impersonate a soldier, so I didn't compete. Some people I know IRL were there, and they did exactly what I refused to do (they're not in the military, so I am assuming the dream versions of them also weren't). I don't know how the contest went, the dream didn't continue with that plot. I don't remember much else happening afterwards.

I remember two dreams not related. I had forgotten some of what the first dream was about when I was trying to recall the second dream, then parts of it started coming back to me.
First dream I was in some kind of office there were some establishing scenes that I don't recall details of but have a sense that there was something to set me into the dream. I am at a table with some other employees that we have just sat down to. The table is in a busy common area of the office. Me and the other 2 or 3 people at the table, all sitting along one side I think, are handed some kind of dinner menu. I try reading the thing but due to the dim light of the office I can't. The lighting at first was normal florescent office lighting but it changed unnoticeably by the time we received the "menu" or instruction sheet or whatever. The lighting appeared to be normal, but was slightly dim and dark but slightly a light orange. Dark and dim enough to keep me from being able to read the menu. I pulled out my keys to use a keychain light that I have but the light wasn't working. I try fiddling with it and now instead of being a small key fob light, it is now a small plastic (3 x 3 inch) square box with plastic buttons. None of the buttons were working. Eventually I got the thing to do something and it lit up with a light blue prism disco ball type reflecting light. It still wasn't efficient enough to read the menu, card. A nearby manager was intrigued with the lighting effect and made some comment about how it looked. That was it. Wow lots of detail for something I originally only had a vague memory of (sitting at a table in an office)
Next dream. For some reason I thought I was portraying 2 people during this dream. The first person who I was going to be I put aside intending to work out what they were doing later to make it my main focus so I started with the second person. I was in a car pulling out of a parking lot heading toward the entrance to an interstate highway, while heading to a lighted intersection my point of view was that of the car mirrors from their point of view not the driver's point of view. So I was seeing what was behind the car as if I were in the back seat looking back yet still controlling the car as the driver. As I was getting onto the high way I wanted to insure that I was headed in the right direction so I grabbed the TV remote control that was in the passenger seat and started trying to look up via an internet search engine something about where the Comic Con was that I was headed to was supposed to be. My gut feeling was it was in New York somewhere so I should be heading North, I'm not sure which direction I was currently headed. The device wasn't connecting to the search engine. The dream ended around there.
