Korel Laloix: Well.. I did manage to get rid of the dresses for the weddings the ended in divorce.
Korel Laloix: I let myself get rid of those.
Lucinda Lavender: :) sigh
Lucinda Lavender: I never was a bridesmaid
Korel Laloix: But the other ones, I still have no use for...never intend to wear... maybe for costumes... smiles
Korel Laloix: It is highly overrated.
Korel Laloix: But worth it.
Lucinda Lavender: nodding
Korel Laloix: More pain than fun if you do it right.
Santoshima Resident: {just wondering ... did one of you turn on the snow? }
Santoshima Resident: or how does it get turned on here?
Lucinda Lavender: I see no snow
Korel Laloix: no, I derzed it in my view so it does not lag me as much.
Korel Laloix: There are five sploders way up that put out the snow.
Santoshima Resident: right, what activates them?
Lucinda Lavender: i do not know
Santoshima Resident: the words "weddings\"?
Lucinda Lavender: haha
Santoshima Resident: or maybe "divorce"

Korel Laloix: YOu can just click the balls and they stop.
Lucinda Lavender: letting go of things(clutter)...
Lucinda Lavender: breathes deep
Korel Laloix: Moving gave me some good push to parth with some things as well.
Korel Laloix: Got rid of some books and dead socks and running shoes as well.

Eliza Madrigal: luci did you say you aren't dreaming much?
Lucinda Lavender: a wild hair
Lucinda Lavender: well yes...not remembering
Lucinda Lavender: dreams
Lucinda Lavender: are you?
Eliza Madrigal: due to busyness?
Lucinda Lavender: or is anyone else?
Lucinda Lavender: not sure..i think i just forget as i wake
Eliza Madrigal: I am dreaming... and remembering... but differently than 'usual'
Bleu Oleander: have to remember right away
Eliza Madrigal nods.... hard not to be tricked by the false confidence of
Eliza Madrigal: "of course I'll remember this"
Bleu Oleander: done that:)
Lucinda Lavender: been a while since i had that thought
Lucinda Lavender: I was wondering if my change in dreaming has to do with not having children in my house...
Lucinda Lavender: the emptiness
Eliza Madrigal: interesting idea
Lucinda Lavender: and the trust that they are well even tho at a distance
Eliza Madrigal: so you feel secure about them Luci?
Lucinda Lavender: yes
Lucinda Lavender: generally yes
Lucinda Lavender: they are learning new jobs and more responsibility
Lucinda Lavender: they are busy and working
Lucinda Lavender: so i do not feel as responsible for them
Eliza Madrigal: :)
Lucinda Lavender: and they have partners
Lucinda Lavender: and lives
Lucinda Lavender: and cats
Eliza Madrigal: so a bit of permission for you... to dream differently maybe
Lucinda Lavender: yes that sounds good:)
Lucinda Lavender: maybe this weekend
Lucinda Lavender: a dream
Lucinda Lavender: a sleep in
Lucinda Lavender: how about you all?
Eliza Madrigal: I have been setting my alarm for 4:15am the last few weeks, to catch dreams
Lucinda Lavender: dream catcher!
Lucinda Lavender: sounds interesting!
Eliza Madrigal: something I've done from time to time... got the idea from hearing about dream retreats, though have never been on one
Bleu Oleander: can't imagine awakening that early on purpose :)
Eliza Madrigal: well I don't get up, normally
Eliza Madrigal: it is like a cue that brings me out of dreaming long enough to record then go back
Bleu Oleander: my dogs get me up early as it is
Eliza Madrigal grins
Lucinda Lavender: even if you do not have an image you can lie there and watch how thoughts come and go as you fall back to sleep
Eliza Madrigal: yes, when it isn't about dreaming it is about meditation
Lucinda Lavender: watching to see if there is a notable image
Eliza Madrigal: making a threshold
Bleu Oleander: funny, the snow is making me chilly hehe
Lucinda Lavender: on the threshold of a dream
--BELL--

Eliza Madrigal: snow?
Bleu Oleander: here
Eliza Madrigal: is it?
Bleu Oleander: I see it
Lucinda Lavender: maybe if you have a certain setting
Bleu Oleander: no one sees the snow?
Lucinda Lavender: i do not have the snow engaged myself
Bleu Oleander: it's not a view function
Eliza Madrigal: I don't see any.... but wouldn't mind doing so :)
Bleu Oleander: hehe
Eliza Madrigal: it is snowing in bleu's universe
Santoshima Resident: they are particles, and so can be made to be not seen
Bleu Oleander: really, you guys don't see it?
Lucinda Lavender: San spoke of it earlier
Santoshima Resident: have turned off particles
Eliza Madrigal: hm, I just increased particles... still no snow....
Santoshima Resident: the snow make my viewer lock
Lucinda Lavender: i think it is true for me too San
Santoshima Resident: it take a minute or so to show, eliza
Santoshima Resident: if you make that cahnge
