Description
This ever happen to you? You roll out of bed and throw on your ratty but comfortable bathrobe and head down to get your morning paper. You check to see that no one is close and step out the door. Drat! The boy has missed the steps again. You dart out, grab the paper and rush back to the door. AAARRRHHH!!! IT’S LOCKED! You tug on the handles, rattling the door, but nothing happens. The neighbors are coming out to see what is going on. They all start to laugh. BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! It’s the alarm clock by your bed. It’s all been a bad dream. You shut off the alarm and breath a sigh of relief. You roll out of bed and throw on your ratty but comfortable bathrobe . . . . .
Strange what sometimes falls out of my screen. The base lighting is !Sunlight by Vincebagna at the old RDNA. The Boston Terriers by Kirwyn and the M4 poses by Structure were Freebies.

what's really bad is when you have a dream within the dream...
wonderful scene
Cool. But I have no idea about things like this, I've never had a nightmare in my life.
Super!
Fantastic scene and characters!
Indeed, a very bad dream, well done image !
You describe a classic, humorous situation! Very well done! Bravo!
A nightmare within a dream. Yes, I've had them, too. Usually a take off on an every day habit or occurrence, like this with getting the paper and being locked out. So VERY frustrating, then awakening. It's just a dream But so rattled by it I can't fall asleep. Wind up with a rotten feeling all day. Sigh. You really got this on the button! Is that Darth Vader I see incognito in the background? The Dark Side? Keep up the good work! :-)
Já aconteceu parecido. Retratação esplendida, aplausos (5)
Super render Terri nicely illustrated image well done!!
Wonderful image my friend :)
Excellent but you have to read the story.
Great job!
see? this is why I always get dressed before I go out for the paper. lol! a fun scene!
Can't imagine, have been locked out before, but fully dressed. Love the image, especially the french terriers (I think) in the background.
Great done!
well first of all, that's a pretty amazing door you have there! Not too shabby! And the window across the street ain't too shabby either~ Quite an ornate block. I love the look on that lady's face, as she tries the door handles, and the two men in the background turning their heads to see what's just happened. You got the moment, for sure. I've had it happen to me; but I'm in a high rise, so if I lock myself out, I have to go down an elevator and stand in a lobby---with tons of people coming in and out---asking for a copy of my keys. It's wonderful. Anyway, you captured the shock of the moment, and I love the designs you have here.
I canceled the paper, the carrier kept throwing it under my car.
I sometimes have a nightmare : I'm still at work ! Horrible ! Excellent compo.
Very cleverly created and it would be a nightmare. Great expressions. 😀
See.... If that happened to me, the beep, beep, beep, would be some joker taking video of me to put on You Tube....
I have weird dreams sometimes, but not quite like this.. Your muse does seem to have a delightful sense of humor, Teri!
I have had similar dream
Great image! cheers 
**it happens to the best of us
The story alone is funny. Add the Render with the nice expressions ... Grandios, Teri!
Night dreams have a lot to answer for some night I wake up on the floor I still think that the marks on my back match her Knees
You've really taken this Morning Glory set and made it almost yours :D Thanks for sharing all the lovely and hilarious pics with it :D
The subdued colors, the vaguely surrealistic setting and the panicked expression on the lady's face all come together to form a disturbing image that could have made an excellent book cover for a horror novel or anthology.The story you supplied sounds like something right out of The Twilight Zone, too!
