      Not exactly a rant or a rave, more like a funny moment:

      My daughter (7) is at home with me while my son is visiting their dad and my parents are out of town. So it's just us. Usually my folks make dinner for all of us. I felt bad with them away, and I apologized for not cooking very often. She said, "It's ok mom, you make TV dinners, and that's cooking!". Then again today. I was cooking steaks and asparagus, and she says, in the most delicate voice possible, "Mom! Oh Mom.. is this your first time cooking...?"

      LOL. Now, I was a housewife for over a decade, so of course it's not my first time cooking. But I do try to avoid it when I can. And there's a reason why my main cookbook's backside is completely blackened...

      It's bad I know, two months ago I have it too, even had a fainting spell, I hope you feel better now.
      Thanks. I'm glad you are okay! Fainting can be pretty scary. I have had that happen before. Not fun.

      So have I. One time I fainted in the bathroom. I woke up in a puddle of my own urine, and my husband at the time was saying my name over and over... to me, though, it sounded like he was far, far away. Apparently I have orthostatic hypotension?

      Another time, it was during my brief 5 day stay in a psychiatric ward (during my spiritual awakening, I had a psychotic break from reality as I was trying to put the pieces of my reality together). Anyways. They gave me this medication that lowers blood pressure. Very very bad idea for me. Of course I fainted. The nurse didn't believe me. She thought I was faking. As I blacked out, I remember vaguely her shaking me over and over, yelling at me. I probably should have sued her for that. She was holding my head up which is really bad when a person isn't getting enough blood to their brain. Anyways. That place was evil.

      I'm glad you got through that.

      It's chilly here. There’s an energy to these autumn nights that touches something primal inside of me. Something from long ago. From my childhood. I think of high school soccer and football games and the stadium lights blazing down on the players. That time where I sat on the sidelines with my finger in a splint still very much cheering for the team.
      I would smell ripening apples and the sour reek of beer from keg parties in the cornfields. Or the fair and the fair food. Not this year, it's a little different now.

      I’m thinking of starting up the Woodburning stove logs. We’ve never had a fire before Halloween, but tonight is so unseasonably cold that after taking a walk in the wind, all I wanted to do is sit by the hearth.

      BTW, Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to those who are Canadian! Happy Columbus day!

      That's great! Look! It looks like all your hard work in Lucid dreaming is paying off! Sometimes all you need is the little break to see something. Not always because this kind of subject takes hard work but, I'm glad you are seeing results! Congrats.

      Rant: I had a bloody nose, last night. Man, it was so bad I had blood in my hair and my sheets.
      Thanks. Do you normally get lots of nosebleeds? I get them frequently since i was a kid. Particularly when it gets cold. About two years ago i got it pretty bad a few times. I started supplementing with vitamin K and hadn't got a bad nosebleed since.

      That sounds really nice. You know, it was not hot at all today, here in South Florida. Really nice breeze, and rustling leaves everywhere. I think Florida is teasing us, giving us a taste of autumn before we go back to summer again

      Me too. It's weird how you can love people you only knew for 5 days, like they were family. I still think about some of them that were trapped there in that awful place with me. We really bonded.

      That's great that you guys are bonding!
      The weather here is cold and rainy this afternoon and evening. It's a day you want to just curl up with your loved ones and read a book or do watch a movie. When I did go out to get something from my car, I got caught in a Drenching downpour. A warm stove is my friend right now!

      No, just once in a while. Thanks for the supplement tip.

      You welcome. If its just once in a while then just ignore my supplement tip if you haven't already. But then again supplementing with vitamin k wouldn't hurt.

      Small rant. A bit annoyed that I had some decent dream recall this morning but I felt too tired to make any notes, only made worse by the fact that I was keeping an ear out for a parcel that was arriving today... This isn't too unusual but today it just annoyed me for some reason. Since the start of this week, I haven't been feeling great, got some bad leg pain again and just not being able to finish any projects.

      Well, at least I can have a mini rave about the fact that I sold something today, which was a nice surprise.

      My day was stressful. Had to stand up for myself again, in a polite way. I'm getting pretty good at this.

      Spent most of the day cooking a turkey and everything. We are making it today because it is closer to someone's birthday and we decided to celebrate it today, instead of on Saturday.

      Another funny moment.. this time my 11 year old son (who is autistic, and tends to learn words more by reading them than by listening to people talk).

      My dad tells a joke.
      Ian.."that was very comadic of you."
      Grandpa.. "Comadic..?"
      Ian.. "Yes. That means you are adept with comedy."
      My dad, laughing, "You mean.. coMEdic."
      Ian.. "Oh. Yes."

      Later.. after Grandpa told another joke.
      Ian.."You have achieved comedy!"

      Wow! I knew that I was out of it but, I didn't know that I was THAT bad. I meant to post that I fell over someone's bag in the hallway and not just someone. Haha! I know, I know, I'm a goner! I didn't reread what I wrote and that sounds like I just fell over someone. Doh!

      Thank you! My ankle is still a little swollen
      Anyway, I had three lucids, last night. One of those dreams was about going on a Pirate's treasure hunt. It felt like Goonies/Indiana Jones/ Treasure Island type dream.
      I think it had a lot to do with what you posted about your son and reading texts instead of being an auditory learner? The Pirate's treasure in my dream was of books and knowledge of the world that was worth more than money can buy. In fact, there was a lot of reading in the dream. Reading sign and reading the maps, and of course, absorbing the world knowledge.

      I forgot to say thank you; things haven't been a lot better but it's just part of the season I guess and maybe a bit of an expectations issue anyway (I want to do more, etc).

      And it's good that you are being able to stand up for yourself, it's just too bad those situations arise in the first place. Hopefully your week will be better too.

      It was! I felt like a 6-year-old again in the dream... Although, I just remembered that when my nephew was that age we had an Indiana Jones treasure hunt for his birthday and that was very cool! It also reminded me of the father and daughter scene in Ant-Man and the Wasp. (Don't wanna spoil it for those who haven't seen it, yet.) But, those who have, you know what I mean!

      You know what. It's so much better than 2 years ago when I first started. I got taken advantage of all the time back then! Now I've wised up. It just seems like there are always some people who will try to use you for their advantage if they can. Luckily, the event wound up in my favor.

      This year is amazing so far. My students are great, and I finally feel like I've got this. Also, my kids (who are ESE and considered lowest 25%) just finished their first test and it was only a little bit below school average. That's really good. So proud of them.

      I think I have not shown you guys the pictures of the door that we made. Worked on it most of the summer for my sister. It wasn't easy to make... Because wood was made from old barn wood, the weather boards, wood curl a little.... seriously, it was a pain in the butt!

      Spoiler for Showing you the door! :P :

      Have a really bad sore throat and super tired. Went to bed early, woke up to my alarm and every fiber of my being screaming for more sleep, had to drag myself to work. Ugh. Luckily I had a strong audio last night from guide "It's not COVID." Hope that's true!

      I never get sick.
