DESPERATE SEARCH FOR MISSING WARREN MOM OF 2, CAR ABANDONED: WHERE'S ASHLEY?

Just after the new year  Ashley Elkins leaves home early in the morning. Her family sees her leave, wearing a long black coat with fur around the hood and black leggings, with the light freckles on her face.  Just 10 minutes after Ashley leaves her mother Monika arrives wanting to share a dream with her daughter. 

Ashley Elkins leaves her home on January 2nd at 8:30 am. Her mother, Monika Elkins, arrives 10 minutes later, wanting to tell Ashley about a dream she had. Having just missed Ashley, Monika sends a text to her daughter about the dream she had involving Ashley taking her mom's truck while leaving her car in the driveway. Ashley replies to the description of the dream, writing "Awe, man." Monika feels this is a strange and uncharacteristic response for Ashley and attempts a "face time" call immediately upon receipt of the text from Ashley's phone.  But Ashley doesn't answer the FaceTime 

Family members reach out to Ashley Elkins with minimal success. Hours after sending a text but not answering a face-time call from her mother, another family member gets a text from Ashley, saying she is going to a beauty supply store.

This isn't the way Ashley Elkins usually communicates with the family, and her mother says Ashley's phone is turned off after the text about going to beauty supply store, before it is turned back on again.
