Dream Interpretation, please?

[katzushima]

In my dream last night, I was walking down a sidewalk and noticed that a link in my knights chain had popped off. I stopped to pick it up and when I went to re-link it I noticed that another had popped off before this one. Backtracking I found another link, only to realize - almost like breadcrumbs - I had actually lost alot of links. By the time I backtracked all the way to the area where I had lost the last link (something I intuitively knew, not by counting), several old ladies were standing around wanting to help me. Before I could accept their help I spotted the link and thanked them for their offer. Come to find out they needed to get to the place I started my backtracking from, but as I had to shrink down to 12" tall to start my backtracking and they were even smaller than I, I figured the fastest way was for me to grow back and carry them (which I did.) On the trip I told them a story of these three mice and how they were looking for a little more cheese for their picnic they were planning.

I'm not sure how relavent the contents of the story are (as I told that particular story to the ladies to pass the time more than anything), but as this is one of the few sensible dreams I have and it concerns an object of immense sentimental, mental, and emotional worth (my knights chain and it falling apart) I'm pretty sure this isn't just a random brain-dropping.
