Here's something I like to do. For every room find something that will always be there no matter what. Usually I use the fan/light fixture because they usually don't show up in dreams. But you can also use, for example in your room, your favorite _____ - preferably a piece of furniture. And whenever you're in a room, make sure the things that are always there are there. Kitchen - stove/oven, sink, refrigerator all there? Laundry room - Washer and Dryer both there? If you get this idea then go for the small things that should be in every room. Where's the light switch, plug-ins. Are there 4 walls, ceiling and a floor (either carpet or wood).
For a more detailed "is it there" Reality check. Go for marks on the wall, imperfections. A stain on a shirt or some sort of mark that won't go away - make sure it's there the next time and everytime you see it.
I also like to place things someplace and make sure it's there when I get back. Whether it's noticing a design on the door handle of a restaurant I enter and make sure it's there and the same when I leave. But I might leave a penny, button, whatever hidden or in plain sight and make sure it's there the next time or every time.
