Last night's dreams scared me majorly.  Baby animals were crawling on me and not pleased.  There were baby skunks!  Plus I got roped into cleaning up a shack and fortifying it from, yes, you guessed it, wolverines.  The Marvel anti-hero or the honked off creature, I am not sure.  Not the point either.  Upon wakefulness, I fired up dreammoods.com (thank you, Zing), and found the following:

Shack
To see a shack in your dream represents your undeveloped self. You need to expand your Self. Alternatively, the dream may also be a pun on "shacking up".

 Mess
To see a mess in your dream symbolizes the state of your waking life. You need to get your life in order. 

Wolverine
To see a wolverine in your dream symbolizes great strength, fierceness and might. Don't underestimate your abilities.

Skunk
To see a skunk in your dream suggests that you are driving people away or turning them off. Alternatively, the dream indicates that your suppressed anger is on the verge of exploding. You are not expressing your true feelings even though you do not agree with a decision.

Sadly, each of these puzzle pieces fit.  My physical and mental surroundings/bearings are inordinately cluttered and mixed.  My thoughts are scattered at best, as are my goals.

The fact that I am to fend off wolverines speaks to my constant hamstringing of my capabilities.  Everything I do well innately, each of my gifts I seek to compromise because if I don't I'd have to believe that no, I'm not some boob that just thinks I'm talented... I actually am.  That's horrifying.

As for skunks, my entire mindset and mood reeks of suppression.  Won't be too long before I spray all over the place, and no amount of tomato juice or home remedies are going to fix it.

On the plus--I can see clearly that I have been successfully suffocating my truth, and thus I can go about fixing it. 
I have to come back to enjoying writing... that's quite the, task.
