Do you ever dream of dying?

[debodun]

The last two weeks, I've had two dreams about it. The first I was in prison and someone said I was headed for the electric chair. Now what I'd ever do to deserve that completely escapes me. But I woke up as I was being led away.

The second I was in a coffin in a cemetery and was being lowered in the grave. I sat up and shouted that I wasn't dead, but it was like nobody heard me. Again, woke up at that point.

OMGosh... what have you been keeping from us young lady ?

 

[HoneyNut]

Scary! Have you been watching horror movies? Reading scary books? Or I guess if it has been the last couple weeks, maybe you watched some 9/11 memorial stuff?

My bad dreams the past few days are about undone homework. Not sure where mine are coming from, unless it is because one of the clubs I'm in assigned me to get info about potentially organizing a short bus trip to NYC next year.

None of those. Maybe it's a warning about my thinking of climbing on a ladder to clean the rain gutters.

climbing on a ladder to clean the rain gutters

Ah, the senior version of a horror story!

 

[hollydolly]

ooooh don't you dare... I know $200 is a lot to get them cleaned.. but don't you even think about it...

 

[OldFeller]

I always thought that if you dreamed your actual death that you would die in your sleep.

I've dreamed my death always in the same scenario, since I was very young where it involves me losing control of the car and going over the cliff... I hope you're right and it means I'll die in my sleep and not over a damn cliff

HEADLINES!!!
Popular church lady’ Debodun charged with 6 counts of bank robbery.

 

[debodun]

Yeah, but just robbing is not a death sentence, unless I happened to kill someone in the process.
I should be that skinny!

Yes I would take this as a warning. At least be safe rather sorry. Can someone do the rain gutters for you?

 

[debodun]

A guy from church said he'd do it, but didn't set a date. He's in his 90s, but spry.

Go for it!

You shouldn’t be climbing ladders at your age, especially if you live alone. You could fall.

I hope you always get help when you need it…… except when it risks their lives

You’ll going to let a guy in his 90’s risk his life instead of yours?

Wow!

 

[Jamala]

Oh dear... letting a person in his 90's get on a ladder... hmm... then that dream about the "chair" might come true.

I hope you're not seriously thinking of having someone in their 90s clean your gutters. I have a one story ranch house and I only pay $125 to have them cleaned. But no need to pinch pennies if it cost more, come on Deb.

 

[PeppermintPatty]

To save $125, she would.

I agree...plus getting a pro to do it will always be not only safer but probably a better job..

I get mine done, 2 men.. 2 storey house back and front using a vac and brushes... £100

 

[Ruthanne]

I once dreamed I had died and in the dream I was on another planet in a phone booth trying to reach everyone I knew. The calls wouldn't work and I was very anxious and frustrated.

If you hire an "individual" to climb a ladder to clean your gutters. you might want to check your homeowners insurance, beforehand. If you hire someone, and they fall and injure themselves, you could be held liable for their injury costs.

That’s what I was wondering. If this nice guy slips off the ladder and dies, Deb could be held responsible. The 90 year old year isn’t insured even if he does randomly and foolishly volunteer.

 

[Teacher Terry]

Hire someone that is a professional and has insurance as others have mentioned. The dream sounds like a warning.

Interesting that a story of death is really about cleaning gutters and pinching pennies.
