After almost a month now of lazily but persistantly trying to work on my dream recall(not keeping journal by bed ect) I have recalled two more dreams, one for each night. This means my recall is getting better obviously. Guess how I did it. Very simple. Set my alarm for the middle of the night and committed to wake up twice during the night and write my dreams down..........and I didn't even write them down. So here are the two ...one last night and one the night before. 1. from two nights ago Someone in a high position I know is crawling on the ground. They look like a midget with really bad arthritis and maybe a deformity and they are struggling as they crawl along the ground not neccesarily in pain but with great difficulty. 2. from last night I am walking along the overhangs of houses in an open square formation..the houses touching... the overhangs joined together all in an open square formation. I know this behaviour is on the edge but I think hey why not its fun and everything is very stable(the roofs, overhangs etc) and my neighbor comes out and sees me(catches me) walking along the overhangs(understand this means on her overhang also) and I don't worry too much because no harm has been done. She then lets me know she has called/is calling a lawyer or something to sue me(an idea just came to me that I also may be in trouble with her husband about this) for "messing" up her overhang. The idea is she will find something wrong and blame me for it. I now see a shoddy house that is not as well kept as the others in the group and she tells me that IF...I move my kids in that house and rent it from her she will not get me in trouble. She is very clear that she is trying to make me rent this house for my kids(put my kids in her house...yeah right)...from her or she will tell. Very clear dream. I think her phone may have been messed up or something.
I have no excuse. It finally happened. I am now having clear recall but I made the mistake most of us do when we restart our commitment. I woke up with a few snippets. I acknowledged them and went back to bed without recording them and wallah. They are gone forever. Dang it. It has been only about 18 days for my recommitment to LDing. Welcome back to me.

1. last night I saw a DC do a dream sign and went to check if I was lucid but I had no body at all because I was only in strong HI 2. Mediated and had the beginnings of SP that is all
In the spirit of my new commitment I post this trivial snippet Seeking, water, large lake or ocean forboding, and island small, a building on it not much larger that a few acres, swim to it and suprised at its safe feel, it is a school-large daycare with no one on it, seeking, around it the water, with stepslides leading to the waters edge safely, I slide and swim, now in the forrest seeking seeking what, a house/hut in the forest but nothing found, what am I seeking. Upon waking I realize I am seeking lucidity and meaning in the dream world. Like a forgotten name or word I look for something of which I know not in this dream. done
A real quick short one during a nap in which I wanted to go lucid. Its just a string of ideas but I'm just beginning again and my recall is still in need of a lot of work. Shirts and ties, a room, a school/office style building, family, where are my cloths, lets go and get them back, an area of privacy and space for our "stuff", the building is changing, becoming more organized and clean, stuff is getting moved and organized and cleaned, our "area" is getting cleaned probably, panic, lets go find it and get my cloths, unrecognizeable areas because of the cleaning and organizing, my stuff is finally found, partially found feeling but it all seems there, a feeling of relief for me and my family and a small awe at the changes of the building, it doesnt feel comfortable anymore. End of dream recently I recieved some new cloths and they had to be returned because they were too flashy, the ties too short etc. They have been replaced with fitting ties and appropriate attire. I dutifully record this as part of my new commitment to take ld and dreams more seriously. Done
I am amazed at already forgetting my previous posting. Dream begins. Me at McDonalds, upper management female(foggy), beautiful woman of a different race, very busy, I want a mcdouble, they are so busy they are not taking my order, they could but are not, the manager which is the beautiful woman asks what I want from the back, I tell her, she says well get it and get your money in the dining room in a minute or now if you prefer, I say now, my dollar is handed to the back where they are cooking, I think how odd, I know the details of real life that entered this non ld dream management manager was family of upper management beautiful woman of another race the dollar the informal handling of the dollar (more is coming) the casualy busy attitude of the employees the assessing of the managers ability by me and upper management my appreciation of the style of managing my belief that mcdonalds probably has a good management training program end
