Tornado Warning

Benji, I had the strangest dream last night. We were sleeping peacefully in our beds when sirens sounded.  I then felt like I was being scooped up and carried away. I was tired and didn’t open my eyes but had the sensation of descending two flights of steps wrapped in my pillow and blanket, and then coming to rest on a cool, soft surface in a dark, damp place. It was comfortable and soon I drifted back to sleep in spite of the sound of footsteps making trips up and down stairs. Later, I was aware of the television weatherman talking and the sound of a hard rain outside. I must have drifted back to sleep because I was again startled by a lifting sensation and the feeling of ascending upstairs. It must have been a dream because I woke up this morning safe in my own bed.
