Am I paranoid?

[gonemad]

This is going to sound completly irrational.
Had a strange dream last night.
In a nutshell DH had let his ex wife look after our children and we were arguing about it and he grabbed my wedding ring and it broke.
Also in the dream a man kept walking past me and smiling.
Then this morning after me and the kids had slept in late I came down and checked the 1471 on the phone as I had been expecting a call from a friend and wanted to check if I had missed her.
Their was a local number had rung at 2.27am.
I rang it back and a young girl answered and did'nt know who I was and I explained and she said maybe it was her sister.I asked where she was and she told me her road name which is near here but I don't know anyone on that road.So I left it at that.

Now we are ex directory so maybe it was a complete fluke,kids messing about and I am getting myself worked up over nothing.

I am a bit low at the moment anyway and am prone to paranoia but I can't get this out of my head.

Jusdt like me to overthink everything and make it into something which is quite innocent.

Am I just being silly?

I have strange dreams all the time.

I dreamt my elder daughter married a man nearly 20 years older than she. I was unhappy b/c she was a young woman and this man was widowed and very Mr Rochester-like. He also had a title and I am a Yank and don't like all that stuff.

She's only 3 right now, ffs!

It's just the brain trying to make sense of things.

Your elder sister's only 3 expat - God, you're bright!!

I've had dreams gonemade where the feelings they generate really affect how I feel during the day. Weird - but I should put it to one side.

OK - sorry - should read properly before posting - got the daughter now

Um, I did write 'my elder DAUGHTER'.

They're just the brain regenerating, dreams.

They don't mean anything.

Give it a couple of days and the effect will wear off.

Expat-I think it was a combination of having the dream and then coming down this morning finding this number on my phone and not knowing who it was.
Probably just a wrong number but my mind is working over time.

It will do for a few days, gonemad. But you're not going mad and it will pass soon.

I know my dream stems from DD1 starting nursery school next week and handing her over for others to look after for the first time in her life - non family members, that is - and my feelings about her growing up and all.

Sent DH an email earlier as he fell asleep downstairs last night and I e mailed to ask if was still up then and had heard the phone ring.
He has'nt answered the e mail yet and is normally pretty quick at answering my e mails so this is adding to my paranoia .I worded it matter of fact as I don't want it to sound like I am accusing him of anything as he knows I have been really paranoid about things just latley and my self esteem is very low.Combination of reaching a certain age and stress with other things going on at the moment.

Know what you expat.I found it really difficult when ds started school and my dd will be starting pre school in sept so am not loooking forward to leaving her.
It seems so strange that you warn them about strangers etc and then just leave them with complete starngers when they start school.

nmellowma-When I rang earlier a young girl did'nt know anything about this and said it could have been her sister but I did'nt know what else to ask and did'nt want to sound like a mad woman.

I have e mailed DH but he will probably think I have gone mad.

Probably just a wrong number dial - she might have been after a kebab! I know when DH is asleep you could bring a whole marching band past him and he won't hear it. Your DH might not have heard the phone ring either.

mellowma ilkboo
DH sent back e mail saying he did'nt hear the phone and it must have been a mistake.
He did'nt recognise the number.

Just me being totally paranoid as usual.
