As for your visit to my post on the book, you can imagine after my day of giving to the needed homeless, I was so surprised to find that an early arrival of Fifi's new book Prairie-Style Weddings would add to how grateful I am to be included in her creative journey in as to inspiring the prairie vibe in a relaxed rustic ceremonious book, that inspires all things rustically salvage for any event.<br /><br />You know I have to mention, your wood seltzer box. It would be a box I would not turn away if it were my find, and it might end up with a Christmas tree out of it for the holidays...... Just saying!! Will we be seeing a tree of sorts displayed somewhere in your home this season of peace and calm.<br /><br />See you soon beautiful.<br />Xx<br />Bisous<br /><br /> angel kisses to you.<br /><br />~ Doré Burlap Luxehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134718817693134037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-70311912603405211412014-11-24T09:33:40.267-05:002014-11-24T09:33:40.267-05:00I always learn so much when I visit you, Vera.

This song would echo through our home when I was a young child..<br />I believe this is my favorite post of yours... Thank you for all the information.<br />I guess I need to do a little research.. With the exception of a few dreams after the passing of my beloved, I have not had any recall of dreams in over 15 years. Very odd, don't you think? <br /><br />As for dear little Max... I loved your explanation... It gave me a giggle..<br />I would not have disturbed him either.. He looks like he is in dream land.<br />I loved your poem Vera.<br />I hope you are feeling a little better... <br />Sending you a warm hug.<br />Penny<br /><br />Angelsdoor * Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770992037653364805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-38064869020438498442014-11-11T01:48:26.863-05:002014-11-11T01:48:26.863-05:00Vera, this hole post is a dream!!

I dream sagas and wake up exhausted- frequently. They are very detailed and in color so I call them my movie dreams. I've had a recurrent dream for many years that drives me nuts. I'm driving and I turn down a street to the most wonderful little shops. They know me there and it seems like I have been there many times. I'm always so happy that I have found it again. When I wake up I'm not sure if I dreamed it or not, but I'll always be on the quest to find that street. Honestly, it freaks me out! Maybe I went there in another life. I get the strangest feelings of deja vu.<br />I so enjoyed your post...always do!

Some I do! :) I always wonder the "how & why" one dreams of people and places that you haven't thought of in eons. I retired in Jan,'03 and I dreamed about work for years! Those probably should be called nightmares. :) It still happens occasionally.

If we have exotic, wild, crazy fun dreams, then we go back!<br /><br />Lulu sleeps in a crate covered with a quilt at night so we don't see her dreaming, but our old dog slept on our bed. She would be running in her sleep chasing birds or other dogs. It was so fun to watch her dream.<br /><br />Steve and I both still have the recurring dream that it is the end of the semester and we forgot to go to class at all and now it is the final exam.

I always wake up feeling as if I'm trying to sort out a challenge or rather, trying to go deeper into my goals. Skimming the surface of the water is always the theme of my dreams! WOW! You hit it on the head. I wonder what I'll dream tonight! And I too am looking forward to a magical Christmas event.

I love that we burn more calories while sleeping because I need my sleep...more than my husband. Here I thought I was thin because of the stress in my life...maybe it's because I like my sleep. :-)<br />Also love the thoughts on "let's sleep on it."

First, I do sleep a lot, I don't feel good unless I've had 10 hours of sleep...no kidding! If I don't get that one night, I'm sure to make up for it the next. But I also do a lot of tossing and turning, so maybe it actually comes out to be 8 hours. I dream rarely, but I do have a recurring dream that I often try to figure out. And I really do agree with you on how children have nightmares. <br /><br />I'm with June...My bedroom is my sanctuary and I do all my reading and relaxing in a big cozy bed with tons of pillows and my two pups along side me! :)<br /><br />Jane xxBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-4974503240319838202014-11-04T10:48:07.211-05:002014-11-04T10:48:07.211-05:00How I love this post Vera!!!

I have had a couple of recurring dreams in my life that repeat several times a year. And there is one dream that I can never quite remember that will even tug at the edges of my mind once in a while during the day.<br /><br />One of my granddaughters had "night terror" dreams from when she was little until she was about 8 or 9 years old. Her eyes would open but she would still be dreaming. It was horrible and we felt so bad for her and nothing to be done but wait them out. <br /><br />A wonderful, reflective poem at the end of your post, Vera. Nicely done.

Yikes, these old fables and there meanings :)<br /><br />love your bed pillow shams, dreamy, and inspire rest.<br /><br />Yes, my dear friend this post came at a perfect time, I had a frightening dream that last couple of nights, it must be something or the someones blocking my good energy, stress of what has been in my path this last month. Shaking that off its nothing but sweet dreams from here on in.<br /><br />Now as for Max, are you sure his whiskers didnt drip into the left over glass of wine? drifting him off to la, la land dreaming of his next glass ? :))<br />I love that you snapped a foto of max in slumber on the counter in deep dream land, its a perfect shot for this dream post.

I think we can completely allow ourselves to be open to almost anything in our dreams. No distractions of life just our minds being free to wander through possibilities. Love to dream and love to remember.
