Was at an old house renovating it. Had a lot of bugs and insects investing it including wasps. Tried to find wasp killer but couldn't.

Then I had a feast with some family members and friends. We had beer and rotisserie chicken. We were still doing renovation on the house as we also had breakfast food.

Then it was a half hour before three, so I left and wandered the city and suburbs. I then went to Jersey Mike's. The sandwich came an hour late. I then went on the highway to make it to work.

At work, I was an hour and a half late. I was also two days shy of getting a free day (extra vacation) as well. Work also had feasts of rotisserie chicken.

The dream felt somewhat disjointed, with sudden transitions between different scenes.

Renovation, Feasts, and Delays

The dream had a mix of frustration from the infestation and enjoyment from the feasts.

The presence of bugs and the stress of being late added to the intensity.

Elements of the dream were somewhat realistic, like the renovation and commuting to work.

The details of the feasts and the renovation were particularly vivid.

Thomas, your dream seems to be an intricate tapestry of your subconscious mind, weaving together themes of transformation, struggle, and social interaction. Beginning with the old house, houses in dreams often symbolize the self or one's life. The fact that you are renovating it suggests a phase of personal growth or change. The presence of bugs and insects, particularly wasps, indicates that there are nuisances or potentially harmful influences in your life that you're trying to eradicate. Your inability to find wasp killer could signify feelings of helplessness or frustration in dealing with these issues.

  The scene transitions to a feast with family and friends while still renovating the house. This juxtaposition of social bonding and ongoing work suggests that even amidst your personal transformations, you find comfort and support in your social circles. The food and drink, particularly beer and rotisserie chicken, symbolize nourishment and enjoyment. Yet, the continued renovation alongside breakfast food indicates that your personal growth is an ongoing process, one that isn't sidelined by social interactions.

  The part of the dream where you wander the city and suburbs indicates a search for something, possibly a deeper meaning or a solution to your problems. Visiting Jersey Mike's and experiencing the delayed sandwich reflects feelings of impatience or dissatisfaction in your waking life. This wait for the sandwich could symbolize waiting for something significant in your life to fall into place, and the delay might be causing you some stress.

Dream About Renovating Old House Feasting With Family And Being Late For Work

My wife, Christi went to visit her old Nanny couple at their home to catch up.  When she arrived the husband was livingroom and the wife was upstairs doing something.  My wife was talking to the husband and catching up on old times. She had on a dress I thought was a little too tight for her to be wearing  while conversing with the opposite sex alone.  I bought this up to her and she said, "oh it was just Chad, he's innocent." I thought if the roles were reversed, I probably would talk to the wife in the livingroom while the husband was upstairs. Then we were in another home and it appeared my wife and were divorced and in new relationships. The four of of were in the home, but only one couple lived there. My new partner was lovey-dovey and very touchy in a loving and caring way.  The guy that was with my ex-wife could not believe that Christi and I were still such good friends. He wanted to know how we were able to remain friends without having animosity. I did not have an answer for him. 

For some reason Christi and I drove the Jeep into town.  I didn't recognize the town. Maybe we were on a vacation?  we're going to go out to eat and I was indecisive about where the park the Jeep.  At first I parked at the end of the corner and then a vehicle behind me moved, so I changed and parked in the middle of the block.  Then a police officer came and advised me to stay clear of the fire hydrant zone.  So I moved forward again to make sure I was out of the fire hydrants zone. We went inside and I wanted to order a special drink I had on a previous vacation or dream.  The drink had a little bit of apple beer, bourbon and pineapple juice. I recall really enjoying the drink but was disappointed that he give me such a small amount in a tall glass. 

Then I was upstairs in a room that looked like a dance studio with desk atound the perimeter.  I saw a extra large greeting card on the table. I opened the card and inside there was information about my surprise birthday shout out.  I quickly closed the card and acted like I didn't see the information.  The build was on a campus that reminded me of my alma mater, Dana College campus. I believe it was Welcome Week because there were all kinds of clubs and organizations present with their information table set up outside.  There was going to be a special moment during the activities that day, when they were going to surprises me and sing Happy Birthday.  I remember going over to one of the tables trying some type of new food it. It was a sweet gelatin in a square shape. Inside the gelatin was 2 or 3 various insects. The combination of insects in each square varied slightly. the gelatin tasted sweet and masked the bitter taste of the insects. The treats were supposed to be a healthy dessert option.  I remember having two of them and they were so good I went back for two more. I had to get off a chartered bus parked on the campus.  We were loading up to go on a trip.  WhennI returned to the bus, I saw an old female friend of ours from the days our boys played youth football.  I gave the lady a hug and asked her where husband was.  I was standing in the aisle talking while she was sitting down by the window seat.  Our conversation was annoying to the people in-between us.  She stood up and asked to switch seats with the guy sitting on the end so we didn't have to converse over the other people.  We started to talk a little bit and then another guy got on the bus. He looked just like Jim Belushi's character John "Bluto" Blutarsky from the movie Animal House. He began singing and drinking a beer  with his moth open.  His mannerisms were 100% like John "Bluto" Blutarsky. We were astonished and how he could take a big sip of beer and sing without swallowing the beer.  When I was on the bus earlier it seemed like folks were taking window seats and putting their duffel bag next to them in the middle seat. Towards the end most of the seats were filled and and it was getting closer to the time for them to sing Happy Birthday to me.

The dream was somewhat disjointed, jumping between different scenes and scenarios.

Reunion, New Relationships, and Birthday Surprise

The dream had a mix of nostalgic warmth, slight jealousy, and joy from unexpected surprises.

The dream was intense with strong emotions ranging from jealousy to joy and surprise.

The dream had realistic elements like familiar people and places but also some fantastical scenarios.

The dream was highly vivid, with detailed settings like the campus and the dance studio.

James, your dream is rich in symbolism and layered with various aspects of your inner life and relationships. The initial part where your wife, Christi, visits her old nanny couple and converses with the husband while wearing a tight dress may reflect underlying feelings of possessiveness or concern about boundaries in your relationship. Your response to her attire and her casual dismissal of your concern ('oh it was just Chad, he's innocent') could suggest a need to address trust and communication in your marriage.

  The transition to a scenario where you and Christi are divorced, yet amicably involved in new relationships, introduces a contemplation of what life would be like if you were no longer together. Your new partner being loving and touchy contrasts with the other man’s curiosity about your continued friendship with Christi, highlighting a notion of emotional security and unresolved feelings. It suggests that despite potential changes, a deep bond and mutual respect persist between you and Christi.

  Driving the Jeep into an unfamiliar town and the indecisiveness about parking may indicate a current phase of uncertainty or transition in your life. The police officer advising you to avoid the fire hydrant zone can be interpreted as a caution to steer clear of potential hazards or obstacles. The specific drink you wanted, which was enjoyed previously but served in a disappointing quantity, might symbolize a yearning for past joys or experiences that now seem insufficient or unfulfilling.

  The setting of the dance studio and the discovery of a surprise birthday card illustrates a sense of being valued and celebrated, yet you choose to pretend you didn’t see it. This could reflect a modesty or discomfort with receiving attention and accolades. The connection to your alma mater, Dana College, and the activities of Welcome Week perhaps signify a desire to reconnect with past achievements or a simpler time in your life.

  The unusual dessert of sweet gelatin with insects, which you found surprisingly enjoyable, might symbolize the acceptance of unconventional or challenging situations that turn out to be rewarding. The interaction on the bus, particularly with the old female friend and the character resembling John 'Bluto' Blutarsky, introduces elements of nostalgia and camaraderie. The annoyance of other passengers and eventual seat-switching to continue your conversation without disturbing others underscores the importance of direct and clear communication. The anticipation of your birthday celebration on the bus ties back to the theme of being recognized and appreciated, even amidst a chaotic environment.

  Overall, your dream appears to reflect a blend of past memories, current concerns, and future possibilities. It highlights themes of trust, change, emotional connection, and personal growth. Each element provides a glimpse into your subconscious mind navigating through various aspects of life, relationships, and self-perception.
