      Well, after a disappointing November, I'm hoping Santa brings me lots of lucids this month.

      I'm looking mainly at Basic I, Advanced II, and the Bonus. And I'm totally with KestrelKat on this one, I'm staying far away from Advanced I. The creepy level on the Gremlins is just too dang high...

      I got woken up by an earthquake this morning and decided to try a WILD. I used the counting technique, "1, I am lucid dreaming, 2, I am lucid dreaming..." which I lost track of a few times but eventually I opened my eyes to a dream

      First off I completed this healing meditation that I wanted to do then I found a tree with "lucid beer", so I drank some of that to extend the dream.
      I could hardly recall any of the tasks this month except for throwing a snowball at a DC. I thought it had to be a child (is that cruel?) haha so I scrounged up some snow on the ground and aimed at a child. I assumed my aim would be perfect and it was, I hit the little girl in the face.
      She grinned, froze and fell like a statue to the ground.

      I then rewound the dream because of a dare.

      But yeah, hopefully I remember the other tasks next time.

      I also spoke to Santa and said we'd go on an adventure soon.

      Ahhhh! It's wing time already!!!

      Will wing folks after a shower, then I got some comments about the tasks too. I think I know what Xanous meant and I have some ideas.

      Idea #1: Great totms start with great suggestions in the Task Club. (more later)

      It's the first time ever that I manage to complete any of the tasks. Happy I did it!

      Here are the parts of the dream where I do them:
      "Then, I remembered about the two basic lucid tasks I had read on the forum. The first one was to hit a DC with a snowball. I saw a friend of mine, so I decided to start a snow fight with her, despite there wasn't any snow. I looked at my hand and tried to make a snowball appear. She noticed what I was doing, so she dug her hands into the wall of chalk, made a snowball out of it and threw it at me. It behaved as though it was snow, so I gathered as much as I could and threw it back at her, without hitting her. This whole thing repeated a couple of times until I finally hit her. She looked at me like: "really? Was it that hard to aim well?"

      Then, I went for the second task, giving a DC a lump of coal as a present. I entered my house and saw some family members. Again, I looked at my hand and tried my hardest to make some coal appear, but it didn't. I must've been at a low level of consciousness, because the dream wasn't behaving the way I expected it to. Regardless, I wasn't willing to quit, so I approached my grandma and held out my empty hand to her. She reacted as though I had a gift on my hand, and when she held it, something appeared on her hand. It was cube-shaped and wrapped in paper, so I assumed it was the coal lump. She unwrapped it and it did look like coal, but she opened it as if it was a box and took a necklace out of it. I was taken aback."

      In one of my audios I mentioned a task of the month that I did November 2012. I didn't have any kids back then, and I am pretty sure it was my first TOTM. The amount of control and clarity difference is amazing, but I am pretty excited that I also remember how the dream feels is awesome. just a little thought for those thinking about doing some tasks. You can always look back and remember these awesome tasks.

      Indeed... making suggestions is crucial As we pick up the ToTMs on the most voted/suggested from the Lucid Task Club. We never hand pick them, but as said here, great suggestions bring great ToTMs!

      Awesome, that is what we need Is the most fair to base the ToTM on voting / suggestions rather me just posting whatever I want hehe, so the more suggestions the better... and then voting of course!

      This was a strange night, I had three lucids in a row and in each I managed to put the cart before the horse, In the first I woke up with a stepladder beside my bed and climbed up just to flop over the top of it and go back to sleep, Then I woke up again to go pee in the bathroom but sprayed down everything else on the way there, including blowing a hole thru the wall to another bathroom and turned to turn of the lights which were on but the switch was off so I went back into the bedroom and it went dark... Then I got up to go to the bathroom again but this I time just went out thru the wall and floated down a huge set of stairs covered with snow, Big steps like on the Capitol building and fashioned a snowball to hit a girl with but she fell over backward with her legs up in the air before I could throw it and you know already what happened next....

      So in other words, a smashing success. TOTM? What's that?

      Well grabbed a quick basic TOTM amongst a pair of OBE style LDs (not all that common for me). After a few months of putting TOTMs on the back burner for some reason I realized I missed the wings. Now I have to put a little priority into getting an advanced or the bonus.

      <snip>...as I am heading down the stairs I recalled my thoughts after my first LD that I should have tried to do at least one task of the month. I decide that when I open the door there will be snow all over the grass but as I do it is a bright sunny day with green grass and I see people over to the left and what looks like a small child over to the right across the street sitting on their porch. I decide "well there will be a small clump of snow left that hasn't melted" and I look down around the grass in front of the house I just walked out of and I find some melting snow but very little. I reach down and clump it together and it is barely larger than a golf ball but good enough and I pick up a piece of foam laying on the grass to put underneath the snowball so that the dream has no excuse to melt it. The group to the left is no longer there but the child on the porch is still there and I approach. The child is a small girl maybe only 3 or 4 years old and she is adorable blond girls with shoulder length hair. I threw the snowball very softly at her and it hit her in the face and fell apart. Her only reaction was blinking her eyes a lot because of the snow that got in her eyes. I decided this is just a dream and I should probably give it a proper throw and I clump back together the pieces of snow and throw it properly at her and this time she disappeared with only her small plastic figurines she had been playing with left behind...<snip>

      ^^ Haha you blasted the poor thing into oblivion, that's a mighty strong snow ball there!

      Driving through the city tonight, I saw at least one snowball fight and another kid playing in the snow, so no excuse! Wings on the morrow! Just as long as she doesn't fall back with her legs in the air first!

      I tried to summon a snowball to throw at Lucy Van Pelt but got a sticky, messy rice ball instead!
