I had 2 choline, some purple grape juice, some blueberries & strawberries...Oh! and I binned the partridge's carcase. I'm glad that's all gone...I didn't like it a bit...

Only one dream last night but it was long and vivid and that's reassuring. I awoke a few times but couldn't catch a dream....although there was no sense of departing REM (I'm now getting an increasing amount of the eye effects and slight body tremors I had so clearly before I temporarily quit LD'ing.)

7.30
Long and pretty vivid dream set in a power station (DS) I was appropriately suited and booted and I was tasked with showing a young woman around the station (Why? who cares...I'm not complaining) She was with a party of women and we left her mother and the others and started ascending.

Like most dreams it was ridiculously inaccurate . It involved a vertical climb through a maze of pipework and machinery and I was showing off, climbing with alacrity and shinning through narrow gaps in pipework. On the way down through another section I almost collided with a welder and apoligised.

When I reached the bottom I looked up and saw the young woman climbing back down the "up" section (she'd clearly given up trying the near impossible) Then I lost sight of her and I was looking around trying to find her (mega DS) Eventually I gave up looking and crossed a road to join up with the group of women.

I edged through the crowd and located her mother and asked her where her daughter was "Her? She's gone home" she replied ...and I don't blame her!

Having quit before and lost all dreaming ability I started from scratch again 19 days ago. I've logged 22 dreams of varying quality...9 of those in the last 4 days (41%) I'm waking at night without need of the alarm clock and my sensitivity to the onset of REM cycles is returning fast

I'm working on recall and ADA and I'm feeling optimistic. Whether, once we've LD'd we always carry a residual ability I'm not sure but things are moving much quicker than last time.

I MUST work on "bringing the mind home" to relax. I'm losing too much time trying to get back to sleep.
