My life with the mob

Sleep has been so elusive.  I wake up every little while, look over at the clock and cringe.  The Tylenol PM and Advil PM were  helpful at first.  They don't work anymore.  It makes for a very long night.  Last night I kept dreaming the same dream with different characters.  At first we were being chased by mobsters.  I think I was somehow involved with a rival group we kept moving from hotel to hotel to avoid being killed by our enemies.  My husbands drove our car in high speed chases and evasive his maneuvers kept us unharmed. I WOKE UP.  Later the dream was different, now I was with my brother and a child I didn't recognize.  We were hunkered down in a hotel and I was keeping watch when I saw the car load of mobsters, dressed in fuchsia hats and long jackets, pull up and pour out of a car with their Tommy guns at the ready.  I waited till they were out of site and ushered my brother and this child out of the room, down to the car and we sped away.  Then I WOKE UP again. 

It's not a good start to the day when you wake up and start planning a nap.

You'll get to a place where sleep seeks you out. In the meantime, try black and white dreams.

With all you have been through lately it is no wonder you are having weird dreams.

Here is what the dream interpretation says about chases: To dream that you are being chased signifies that you are avoiding a situation that you do not think is conquerable. It is a metaphor for some form of insecurity.

Hope your dreams become more pleasant soon.

Granny Annie that interpretation certainly describes a situation in my life. Where do you get your interpretations from?
