Last night I couldn't get to sleep for hours. I was exhausted when I went to bed, but sleep eluded me. I finally got to sleep around 2 am and instantly went in to weird dream mode. It happens to me every once in a while. Granny used to tell us that different things had different meanings.
As a kid I used to make all kinds of noise before putting my feet down on the floor to get out of bed to make sure there weren't any snakes under the bed. None had ever been seen in the house, but I had seen them outside. Snakes are the one thing that 'get' to me. When Granny passed her house was left empty for years. Uncles live in front of and behind her place in the hollow. But, the youngest daughter inherited the house and wasn't ready for the move yet. (She has since torn down Granny's house and built a new one.) When one of the uncles was checking on the house, he warned the aunt who inherited it that he kept finding snakeskins...lots of them and some were pretty big.
In my weird dream, I was walking through Granny's house and stumbled on a rattle snake. (Only kind of snake we ever saw outside were copperheads, some kind of black racer and whatever snake family lived in the 'slick rock' waterfall in the creek.) As I move around in the dream to get around and away from the snake, I look down and there is a really fat 2-headed rattlesnake now ready to strike. I just kept trying to get from room to room in Granny's old house and kept stumbling on a different snake in each room. Lordy day, I cannot get the images out of my head and out of my mind! I've been trying all day. I've worked, listened to music, watched television, prayed...those daggone things are still in my mind and won't leave me alone!
If Granny was here I would ask her what it means. Anyone care to weigh in? Is it too creepy? That movie "Snakes on a Plane" has nothing on this dream!
