a dream i had

Last night i had a dream. I was the caretaker of a large and elegant mansion, whose rooms i had not entirely explored. The owner was an equally elegant, beautiful woman who was gone for an extended period of time. An intimidating man with a man and woman accompanying him forced his way into the house and was trying to hustle me with a redecorating project. Somehow he had managed to 'redecorate' the patio with a whole bunch of snake plants. Some were in crappy plastic pots and others were in elaborate, expensive pots. The man charged me $300, and i was relieved because it wasn't too much money. I wasn't happy with what he had done, but at least the price was reasonable. The owner had two black duffel bags that contained her important belongings, and on top of them was a key to the mansion tied with blue yarn and the owner's addressbook. The intimidating man was trying to take the key and the addressbook. For some reason, i had to show the woman who was accompanying the intimidating man to the basement. When i came back, the man was leaving with a duffelbag, and the other was already gone. I tried to grab it from him, but he already had the key and addressbook.
