Lots to Talk About: Dana's Dreams, Books, & More...
First, I finished the cover of Dana's Dreams Two which came to me directly from a dream a couple of months ago. They were painted on the ceiling of a dressing room where I was changing my clothes. I have put them on loads of things on ZAZZLE:
Next, and sticking to the subject, I was telling my aunt how she might remember her dreams when The GOOGLE Monster gobbled everything that I had written up like a bag of cookies. A lot of folks might be interested, so here it goes. Take a glass of water to bed with you. Take a sip and say aloud, "I will remember my dreams". Set the glass on your nightstand. When you wake take a sip. Keep a dream notebook close to your bed. When you first wake, do not stir. Lie there and unravel your dream. Write down keywords in your notebook, so that you might remember upon waking. Share your dreams, talk about them. You must get to them first thing, otherwise you will forget. Pickles and pepperoni are dream foods, pickles being #1. The dream symbolism that you find online goes back to the ancient Egyptian priests. Finally, I had shared tonight's dreams with her:
2/21
First I woke up as I heard Ron yelling, “Dana!”, in my head. This is the third time this has happened lately. It was just a dream, though very real.
The next dream was just a snippet: turquoise ladies panties embroidered with an Aztec bird were dancing in my head.
The third dream was Aunt Nancy’s summer wedding. Aunt Janet was there. They wore long matching sun dresses with blue and white printed roses on a red background. We were late getting to the church and missed the ceremony. We were waiting at my grandmother’s house. There was a dark haired young man working along the side of the house who I got snippy with. He had two of Mummy’s long stemmed fake flowers that Aunt Nancy was asking about. One was just a green bud, but the other might’ve been one of those dancing daisies. My little cousin had a big naked Jane doll still in the box. I was looking out the window at Aunt Nancy and her groom lying on a patio, snuggling. I told my cousin that Aunt Nancy and I both had Jane dolls too.
Now, on with my readings. Tonight's quotes are taken from BATTLEFIELD and Eisenhower:
"It dawned on me that I was up against more than an inflexible rule; I was challenging a tenet of economic survival. A utility company was loath to relinquish even one customer whose lifetime of rate-paying would add tens of thousands of dollars to its coffers." Svenson
This book, that Ron got for me at The Farnsworth House for Easter, is brilliantly written by an artist no less. In Farming a Civil War Battleground Peter Svenson gets down to the bones about building his third house.
"MacArthur, the most political of generals, never succeeded in politics, while three of the most apolitical generals in American history, Washington, Grant, and Eisenhower, did. They were true American Caesars, only American soldiers to hold both supreme military and political power." Ambrose

I've nearly finished the cover for Dana's Dreams Two. Up to page 129 in that, and I started it in June. Eventually the original ought to be available on Ebay. It will be available as prints and other fun stuff on ZAZZLE before that. Stay tuned. I'm also going to list an old High Priestess of mine from before Captivating Tarot. It's snowing again. I've been putting off visiting the neighbors as it has been so cold and windy. I don't drive there because I always leave looped on red wine. I miss them. I also miss spring. Anyway, I'll TTYL...
(Instructions, symbolism, and notebooks are also available.)

It's Owl Day again. Get an 8x10 archival print.
Finally caught up. Months ago I dreamed that Daddy and I were playing a Gettysburg game. I've finally started it. I'm working on the box top. It depicts the fall of Major General Reynolds and is called GETTYSBURG. After some thought I chose him for the cover because he was killed instantly leading his troops into battle on the first day, my best witches and I had gotten an old time picture taken in the house where his body was taken, and he was from Lancaster. I know a lot about Gettysburg, but after beginning the sketch I've discovered my choice was better than expected. He's not buried in Gettysburg National Cemetery, although there is a monument in honor of him right at the front of the graveyard. He's buried in Lancaster Cemetery, so I'm going to have to visit there soon and get a picture. He went to school nearby in Lititz. When I first moved here I heard the gunshot across the street of another man shot in the head and killed instantly, he was from Lititz. Reynolds was the most highly decorated soldier killed at Gettysburg. He had been to New Orleans. Forty-two when he was killed, a Virgo, he was secretly engaged. As I was lying in bed thinking about my game, like I'm apt to do, I thought The Black Death game will be next. If I can't sell them I'll figure out how to sell them myself on Ebay. I can do everything myself as usual with pie boxes, prints, and glue. I'll keep you updated.
