Bad dreams

Last night our son woke up coughing & climbed into bed with us. I woke up when he was moving around while laying on top of the covers sideways across us! LOL We gave him some cough medicine which he gave us a hard time at first but the drank it nice. Then my hubby carried him back to bed.

Later that evening I had the most terrifying nightmare. I dreamt two men broke into our home & were torturing us to death; no matter what we did, they would die & kept coming back to life! When I woke up, I was absolutely scared to death & thought I heard voices downstairs. I was so scared for my son & ourselves. I can honestly say I haven't been that terrified since my nightmares in junior high. I didn't even want to move or get out of bed. I woke up my hubby because I was petrified to move, breathe or talk. I didn't want to go back to sleep but I was so tired my eyes kept closing. Then it would start happening again. Needless to say, the remainder of the evening I felt like I didn't sleep a wink!

When our son woke up with his own nightmare early in the morning screaming, he climbed into our bed & started watching cartoons while Daddy caught a few more Z's. Since there was no room for me in bed, I slept a little longer in the guest bed.

Now I just wish that horrible nightmare would leave me...
