Or the dream could be interpreted as, the house is your family or family history, the difficult professor is your father, or the family mythology about what your family is like; the wife is your mother; the man down the street is your therapist; and the friend is some aspect of yourself that's working to get in touch with your anger or other disruptive feelings and figure out what to do with them. But somehow being disruptive already doesn't seem to help, so the therapist, whom you might have seen as proposing that solution, or having the tools for it, now isn't of as much use. (Or, it could be, because you're leaving, you just don't have time to go through with any further plots or plans with the therapist.)
The warm cider, etc, is anything your family does to seem good, which makes you feel very bad and guilty for the bad thoughts and feelings you have toward them. That all seems too neat and simple, so I don't think it's true, but one could see it through that template-- but then I really don't think I would.
What I believe is that you're the best intepreter of your own dream, your therapist, who might be skilled in interpreting dreams, could give you feedback or maybe insights into what it might mean.
I'm glad things seem much more manageable today. But I'm on the alert for meltodowns that might or might now occur.
