[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT dreams

You are correct.  I do a lot of idea solving early in the morning just  
before Wisty wakes me up to feed her. [she is on a 4 a.m. kick lately] and when 
 I cuddle back in under the covers and falling back off to sleep man those  
thoughts and ideas drift me off, but I have to go over them when I get up 
again  so I can develop them.

OMG,  Joyce, you are a BIG DREAMER - who are you kidding?  I mean, let's 
just  
expand the idea of what a dream is - you are a wide awake, walking,   
living 
dreamer.

I dream constantly - all I have to do is close my  eyes, and in moments I 
am 
off to places and situations. My dreams are  always full of DRAMA...never 
the 
kind of dreams that you want to close  your eyes and go back to sleep and 
try 
to resurrect.

But, have any  of you every been wrestling with a craft or art problem you 
could not  solve? And, then, in a dream, you see yourself doing it and you 
wake up  knowing exactly how to do something you never did before? I sure  
have.  I have figured out knitting problems in m sleep, and I even  learned 
math concepts that I had a hard time with, in my dream. (I learned  how to 
do 
"slope" in algebra that way, when my conscious mind could not  "get it."
I dream for ideas - sometimes I wake up and write down things I  am seeing 
in 
my dreams - poems come that way to me at times.

I  think we have such a creative mind, all of us, that dreams are a  
continuation of our creative self.
