Dream 1
This dream took place during the day and I was outside at my female coworker JB’s house helping them clean up after Hurricane Laura, her daughter WB and some of her friends were there, and later in the dream I was in a classroom waiting for a class to start.
JB and her daughter WB were there alone in one part of the classroom, I was in another part of the classroom, and there were some other students there as well.

This dream took place inside an apartment building, a woman with light-color skin asked me to do something that I can not remember, and she gave me a roll / stack of cash as payment I guess; and she walked away.
Some kids were watching this, they followed me, and I told them that the woman gave me too much money so I was going to give some or all of it back to her.
Hurricane Laura caused more damage than any storm in my life so far, even Hurricanes Katrina and Rita did not do this much damage last time, we were without electricity for two weeks last time; we may be without electricity for even longer this time.
This dream took place during the day, part of the dream took place at a college that had a restaurant with an upper floor, and at some point I went to the restaurant.
At some point I returned to my dorm, my brother GC was possibly there, and then I left on a bus; and my former male classmate MT was among the people on the bus.
