A few nights ago, I dreamed that I had arrived at a quilting retreat at a location about 3 hours from where I live. After I got there, I realized that I had the patterns for the projects I wanted to work on, but I had left the fabric and my sewing machine at home. I had to turn around and go back home for them. I suppose I could have bought more fabric, but I really needed my sewing machine.
I do have a list on my computer of stuff to take to a quilting retreat, so I will have to make sure to check it carefully before I leave for the real retreat next month. I've never gone that far for a retreat before; forgetting something would be more serious than when the retreat is only a half-hour from home.
Kind of like the bad school dreams I still have. Wonder what your apprehension is here? Taria

When I was working ( I'm retired ) I used to dream about getting to the office and not being able to find my desk supplies and files that I needed! Sure is nice to be retired! Barbara in HOT SC
I don't really feel apprehensive about this retreat. It's the first time I've been to a retreat at this place, but I've been there for other things many times over the years so I am familiar with the facility. I don't know most of the quilters who will be there, but they are quilters, so it should be good. It's been several years since I've been to a quilting retreat and those were always at the same facility (though not the one I'm going to now) with many of the same people, so maybe it's just the unfamiliarity of the situation. I have reviewed my list and added a few things.
I used to have a couple variations of the school nightmare. In one, I was at the first day of school and couldn't find the bulletin board where the homeroom assignments was posted. In the other, I'm at college and find out I have to take a final exam in a course I didn't know I was enrolled in. Both of those pretty much stopped after I went back to school and started a new career - and that is 30+ years ago. I figured the dreams maybe meant I was trying to figure out my path for the future.
Another dream I still have occasionally is the bathroom one. I either have to pee or I want to take a shower and there is a constant stream of people through the bathroom. I've finally figured that I have those dreams when I feel like my life is out of control and I'm letting others make too many demands on my life. When I have a dream like that, I know it's time to take some time for myself.

Well, I hope your time at the retreat is terrific and you forget nothing. Report back after you go? Taria
