The dream starts out with me standing in a bathroom and for or some reason my turtles are in the bathtub. I see the tank somewhere close by and notice that the turtles are also in there at the same time. I think this is strange and wonder if I am dreaming, so I perform a RC by pinching my nose and trying to breath through it. At first I could not breath, but I try again and this time I am able to breath. I realize I am dreaming and become somewhat lucid. I am excited and expect to wake up or become paralyzed like usual, but nothing happens. I start to run to the front door because I want to try flying. After bursting through the door I jump off the front steps as hard as I can, but do not manage to take flight, however I did jump a bit higher and farther than I expected. I start walking over to the street while wondering what to do now. Looking around I notice a woman wearing white clothes tending to the flowers in front of the house. She tries to distract me, but I tell her "Sorry not interested" and then I command her to be gone while snapping my fingers and she disappears into thin air. I continue walking towards the street. Looking back at the house I see that the woman has re-appeared and went back to the flowers. I start walking down the street looking for something to do and start chasing after a car to see if I can catch up to it. The dream fades away before I am able to reach the car.
