    Lucinda Lavender: I like to part with stuff too:)
    Korel Laloix: My questions was why I could not make myself get rid of my useless collection of bridesmaid dresses.
    Lucinda Lavender: i find anything related to family and children hard to part with

    Lucinda Lavender: wow yes!...bridesmaid dress would fit in the catagory for me as well
    Lucinda Lavender: family and ceremony
    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: Not sure... i dislike snow in Sl and Rl as well.
    Lucinda Lavender: I see an orangeish light on your left arm San
    Santoshima Resident: yes, i am doing something, i'm not sure what

    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.

    Lucinda Lavender: well yes...not remembering
    Lucinda Lavender: dreams
    Lucinda Lavender: are you?
    Eliza Madrigal: due to busyness?

    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?
