What happened is that my dream started fading, and I knew that reality couldn't fade, so I \"spun\" and it worked.
I was in the driveway, totally lucid. My dog that died a few weeks ago was with me, and I petted him some. I had to spin again to stay in it. Then a few seconds later I tried to stay in it by spinning a third time but I waited too late and woke up. So it was like a 15 second lucid dream, but I remember that it was crystal clear; it was like reality. As I develop my dreaming ability, surely they will get longer and easier to stay in right?
Congratulations! The first lucid dream is always the most exciting, because those who haven't experienced it before simply don't understand how real it seems. Also, congrats on managing to get the spin technique to work for you a few times. The more lucid dreams you have, the better you will get at remaining in them. Good luck!
