That night was a calm night for me. My dad made sure there were no spiders in the house. I believed him faster than I ever did before. I felt so calm in that house. We didn’t have all the furniture including the tv. We all played some board games. The night it all started to change for me.
Before I go to bed I usually have to do stuff to make me calm. First make sure I have all the lights on in my room before I enter. My dad helps with that. Second I have my dad check under the bed and in the closet for any spiders or monsters. Some strange reason spiders were scarier than monsters. Then I would have to check under my bed and in the closet for myself. Once that is over I would get dressed for bed. Have to turn on my night lights and then make sure every other electronic thing in my room is unplugged. I had this fear that a fire would start when I was asleep. But this particular night I had no reason to check under my bed. The closet seemed OK to me. The darkness looked like daytime and had no fear of fire. I didn’t notice the change in myself. My parents sure did. I remember they would constantly be checking on me every 5 minutes or so. I was feeling great.
Had a fantastic sleep and dreamt of chocolate swimming pools. Now I had several dreams before that time but this one was a happy one. Most of them were scary or very weird.
