This time I've printed out the important outlines of the task, a somewhat obvious step I never took before. Dream recall is still a bit crap with being ill right now, but will definitely start thinking about the tasks and trying to incubate for them.

I should be able to at least get one of each group by the end of the season -- I hope! I definitely want to see my mind's "dream art!"

I should be able to at least get one of each group by the end of the season -- I hope! I definitely want to see my mind's "dream art!" I’ve been trying to get this one for a while as well. Last time I tried I found a bunch of poorly painted pieces of paper, like the work of a child. It wasn’t the art I was hoping for and clearly I don’t expect art created by my own mind will be very good!

[monsa199a]

great tasks as usual...its good to be back again,and again, and again...!

[IndigoRose]

Wow, with my task in, maybe I should at least try. I also always wanted to do the art one.

Last 2 nights -- 2 LDs! One DILD each night (and one really short WILD, probably not worth counting, woke up immediately upon entering the dream) One Bonus attempt (half succeeded, so probably half failed?): Spoiler for Bonus attempt, summary: ... I get lucid, I'm really excited, I turn around to face my companions while walking backwards looking at them, "Hey, I'm dreaming you guys are in my dream, what do you think about that?!" We're all inside an aisle in a store. I rub my hands together. Things are stable and fairly vivid. "Not very talkative, eh? Are you going to answer?" The DCs all around me that have that blank look on their faces like their software got put on 'pause,' they're giving me that "What do you think you're doing, you're not supposed to know you're dreaming" look. I briefly engage with a female DC but don't want to get distracted, and want to do some tasks! I decide on elevator since I'm inside a building. I start walking forwards (back the way we came) and see a corner coming up and decide to summon an elevator to appear there. "Hey you guys there, go ahead and press the elevator button for me now so it's ready for me when I get there!" And I turn the corner and voila there is the elevator. There is a desk placed in front of it but I figure I can easily slide over the top of it to get on. I walk in to the elevator (guess the table wasn't an obstacle), and as an afterthought, reach behind me and grab the hand of a female DC (I imagine) and bring her with me "just in case the elevator task goes bust, so at least the dream won't be a loss". We get on the elevator and it starts moving and I wake up ... and reach for my phone and call my son and tell him about the LD I just had with him in it [false, it was a former work colleague, already forgot that], I debate mentioning the part in it where I thought he was gay, notice the very long line of people waiting to board an airplane, they're blocking my way, I have to ask "excuse me" for them to open a space for me to walk through. A bunch of them traveling together are talking about their ticket numbers, wondering who got ticket #264, there is a woman among them with purply sparkly highlights around one eye... ... then I realize I'm in bed, think about the last scene I was in, and "Oops!" realize I missed a chance to continue the LD... ALWAYS check, never assume you're awake!

Fantastic LD last night. Best within recent memory, definitely a top 10 lifetime, and certainly a candidate for "best of all time." Got lucid, thought immediately about tasks. And COULDN'T REMEMBER ANY. I stood there for maybe 15-20 precious LD seconds trying to remember the %^&%ing tasks! Except elevator, I remembered that one, but didn't want to try it again since the last time I woke up once I got in the elevator.

Spoiler for Bonus - Elevator - Fail: This dream starts with me at a computer. I enter the computer screen into a strange futuristic city with stone/clay buildings, many of which are up way way high up. I go up a set of stairs into a little house and go inside. I see a group of women with red eyes by the small kitchen. I announce loudly that I am lucid to all the DCs there. They all cheer for me. Then I remember about the monthly tasks. The only one I can remember is the elevator one, thanks to the picture. I go outside and take off in flight. I think that I need to find a building high up enough to have an elevator. I pass by some other buildings that I recognize from another dream. Some doctor's office. I think to myself - So dreams are all connected, and dream mapping is real! But it would be so hard to do... I wish I could do it. Then I take off toward a building far off. Along the way, I lose control of my body!! I can't fly straight! Instead, some force makes me crash into a very tall, high wall made of stone. I brace for impact and think that if it wasn't a dream, I would be in some serious pain. As I try and recover my bearings, my goggles fog up. I know I'm falling now, so I quickly anchor myself to the side of the wall to stop. This works. I have stopped falling, and after a few seconds the fog clears. I drop down to the ground carefully. Once on the ground, I notice a huge stone aqueduct-like feature in the ground - completely dry - nearby. Inside is sand, being blown by a very strong wind, flowing like a river down the gutter like feature. I hide behind the wall so that the wind does not reach me. Then I notice a super hero woman nearby. I look at her, and she turns into my aunt Lois. "Oh, you're my aunt!" The dream ends.
