I think I probably should. I'm kind of afraid to though, because I don't want to forget my previous dreams. I've become VERY disciplined at keeping my dream journal. But I guess the only point to the journal, is so I can become, and remember my Lucid Experiences. I've done a DEILD once, but it was quite a while ago...a few years. I might have to try it again. I'm pretty sure I could do it without too much problem. I just don't want to forget my previous dreams if I just fall back asleep though.

From personal experience with DEILD, you don't forget your dream at all. I mean, you go through nights where you recall multiple dreams in one sitting, don't you? What difference should it make?
As for stabalisation, how fast do you fall out of the lucid dream? If it's almost instantly, practicing is the only way. If you have a more than 10 seconds, then just stand there and look around. Maybe focus on looking at one thing. THEN rub your hands while looking at them. After that, don't go flying straight away, still take maybe another 5-10 seconds touching stuff in the dream. THEN go doing whatever you please
