And many times something I would tell her would just bounce off her because she just wasn’t capable of listening. Only later I would find her to be embracing whatever idea or information I shared earlier with her like it was her own unique discovery!
Ha ha, this sounds like my gran, who has also passed away.
I don't know the complete meaning of your dream Cindy. But elements of it tell us somethings.
You're mother's excited adoption of steem could reflect either your excitement, or lack off, for steem. It depends how you view your mother 😉 Dream analysts say that 90% of the time the people in your dreams are actually just facets of yourself dressed up as other people.
The little kitschy gifts seem to refer to your thoughts about your contest:
As I drifted off I thought about my upcoming contest and toyed with amounts for the prizes and bounty I want to assign to the September contest round.
After all, what is a contest on steem, if not a way of giving back to those who've supported your blog. Your subconscious just painted the steem gifts, as kitschy gifts. What this means to you, I do not know.
🤣 Dream analysis over 😉
In fact, it was early this morning before I did finally go to sleep.
Lol, I'm writing this at 5am after waking from a nightmare that I wouldn't even put up on steem. Something to do with a mafia boss forging me to eat maggots 😳🤢
Did I tell you I write horror stories too 🤣
Gonna try and get back to sleep now.
P.s. in glad my post inspired you. There is no bigger compliment in this world for a writer than to have inspired someone.
Awesome comment Raj!
Great job on the analysis. I thought the little gifts were related to my contest as well. My sister and I had a strained relationship with our mother, to the point we both wanted to be nothing like her.
I am enthusiastic about Steemit, but want to make sure I give good prizes, so again, not like my mother.
Do you really write horror stories? I’m intrigued! 😁

Yeah, I used to post them on steem but as I got more practiced and confident that my creative work was back up to the standards I reached in university, I started to submit them elsewhere 🙂
Most of the horror I've written on steem has been with the #finishthestory competition.
This one about a psychic detective is the only one that was completely by me. Like I wrote the start for the competition, and wrote my own ending before everyone else wrote there endings lol

It has elements of horror, but also fantasy.
This second one is much more classic horror and shows how awesome the @bananafish 'finish the story comp' can be for inspiring decent works of fiction 🙂

P.s. both these posts are outside of the payment period. I'm not spamming for votes I promise 😆😉
No problem! I asked and you delivered! I will definitely check them out. You are a great writer so I’m glad you are sharing your stories in and outside of Steemit.
My October contest is going to be smack dab, right up your alley! That is self-promotion! But, hopefully, in a good way! 😉
BTW, ‘ hope you got some more rest!
