RANT! You all know what a cholonoscopy is? I have one tomorrow. I had to go all day on just liquids with no substance (no milk) just flavored water and such. Now I have to take the chemicals that will clear everything out. |

I'm very frustrated that they have mandated teachers wear masks again (students can opt out). All summer and the end of last year we were told that masks would be optional this year. 2 days before school starts they change the policy. The problem for me is that the masks cause uncontrollable "maskne" on my chin. It's extremely frustrating and I am worried my skin is getting damaged. I am already seeing a derm and have 2 prescriptions. They wanted to give me a 3rd prescription but my insurance declined it (it costs $700 a tube without insurance - not an option). Without masks, and with the medications, I can keep it under control. With the masks, I have no hope. I wash my face in the middle of the work day (in addition to morning and night), I dispose of my mask and get a new one after lunch. I don't know what else I can do. |

I can understand the frustration. Here in NSW there's been almost 400 cases daily, so the whole state has mandatory masks at the moment for all citizens. I have to have mine on all day in the office. Also we have a 'mask Nazi' that patrols the office and reports anyone who isn't wearing their mask. So, it's unpleasant. For me, no skin issues, but it definitely makes my ears hurt. I can't see the mask mandate ending any time soon either. |

I'm glad my ears don't hurt! |

No mask mandate here. Thank gawd. |

I can't even talk about how angry I am right now. The district just had a 11:30pm vote last night (wtf) to mandate masks for all students without medical exemption starting Monday. Honestly, I am seriously concerned about the masks' long term impact on our young children. They have lowered oxygen levels and increased carbon dioxide levels, which may not be harmful in the short term - but we can't really assess scientifically the long term, because we are the guinea pigs here. And this is going on at a time when our children's brains are growing. Furthermore, the bacteria we are breathing in, is this healthy? I don't know. But I'm pissed, because my son has autism, and can't stand the masks. He is sensitive to anything near his face. And now, if I want to exempt him, something I've been promised by the government, I can't just go get a doctor's note. I would have to go through the Federal Disability Law, and that process takes weeks and weeks. Forget the fact that in 2 weeks I can vaccinate him, and I was planning on it. Fuck that, why even bother? |

Had a code 5 today. This kid could not stop coughing. It took admin 15 minutes to come get him (not allowed to send code 5's out). The other kids were scared. |

With Dreaming you need to start small and work hard grow your lucid dreaming lifestyle...
BYE!
Annoyingly, of late I have some really decent recall for the first few moments of waking up, but I think my sleep has been even more crap than usual lately - we need to do something about our bed - so I haven't really been able to write down the recall because I'm too tired and other thoughts just flood in and make me want to ignore the recall. Plus, I should make some time for catching up on updating my DJ here... |

Rant: They demoted my boss who liked me to the same rank as me and gave the lead position to my co-worker who really does not like me. This makes me fearful for my future with the company. |

Ughh, walked into a trap today at work. |

Sleep Schedule is crap. I've *NEVER* been able to get a handle on this. I think that about all else is and has been holding back my dreaming practice. Tearing myself away from the computer is difficult. |

Rant: My surgery is on Tuesday. They will remove my snapped knee ligament and place a piece of cadaver tendon where they want a new one to grow. I will be basically crippled for many months and that makes me anxious and a bit fearful. |

They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore.
It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language.
Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists.
The dreamer is banished to obscurity.
Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too.
By dreaming, every day.
Work is really starting to pile up. Had to stay late today... so tired. Graded a million papers. |

That was sad to read, I feel like she really could have been more respectful... |

Thank you Dark. It makes me feel better to have friends that are understanding. |
