I have been told I talk in my sleep, I have sat up and yelled at my dog that was not there in my sleep, even sent a few text messages in my sleep but I haven't ever been caught sleep walking until last night. So I had just brought my daughter back to her bed, she needed a little cuddle time in the middle of the night, and was having trouble getting back to sleep, or so I thought.
I heard a cabinet door close in my kitchen! I sat up and said "Jesse someones downstairs!"
He replies "Dang kids! I'll show 'em!" At which point he jets off down the stairs and I heard a few slapping sounds, and a "Bad Dog!" then another slap or two and a dog growling, then some pummeling noises.
"Come on down!" was next so I started off down the stairs and the floor and stairs seemed especially loud to be sneaky going down to see what was going on.
I couldn't see anyone, so I turned on the lights and still nothing so I figured J probably wasn't telling me to come down he was telling intruder and his dog to go down to the basement so I peeked out the window and there was also nothing there, I kept thinking "what is the world is going on?! What a crazy night!" Then I hesitated towards the stairs and turned on the light, SURPRISE there was nobody there!! And no one had been there! I still couldn't realize that what I thought had happened was all in my head, so I went back up stairs, but not before peeking out the window in the front to see if just in case J was out there with a culprit. Still no one there.
I turned off the lights and went back upstairs, only to find my husband sound a sleep in our bed.
I said allowed "wait how did you get up here so fast?" and he didn't even stir.
I layed back down in my bed realizing that it had all been a dream! My heart was pounding and I could not get back to sleep, after not too long J got up and was surprised I was awake so I told him about my dream before her got ready for school.
Things I should have realized? My husband keeps a sword under our bed for such occasions as intruders, even if we hear something outside he grabs it. I think its cute and manly, in the dream he didn't grab his sword RED FLAG also when he ran downstairs the floors didn't squeak. If you've been to my house you'd know that's impossible even the toddler makes the floors squeak. So when I became conscious in the kitchen when I turned on the light I should have just gotten a snack and gone back to bed. Instead I tried to tell myself I wasn't crazy something must have been going on, something was going on I was walking (and searching) in my sleep. So if YOU wake up one day in your kitchen, just grab a snack that's worth getting up for :)
LOL! So glad you didn't hurt yourself!
