I was in an old house with a lot of damage in it. My dad was there and I kept saying I would fix the walls. Then I went to an event where I was with my wife and we saw my brother in law and ex sister in law together even though they are divorced now. I was drinking an old fashioned and it was an event designed to raise money and mingle . We met a lot of people that looked familiar but I don’t know who they were.
