I just talked to Mom and I'm sure she'll be relaying this to you guys too, but I wanted to tell you since it was happening because of me. I asked her if we could postpone Thanksgiving, mostly because Nadia won't be in Dunhaven on Thanksgiving day and with it being the first big holiday, it was important to me (and to her, I think) that she be able to be involved.

But also because it looks like I won't be here on Thanksgiving because it looks like I'm going to Las Vegas to deal with her mother.

Hello my lovelies. Exciting things are ahead for Cozy Cottage Bed & Breakfast. We're doing a little renovating, which won't impede on guest stays at all - so no worries there - but will improve the overall quality of each suite. Renovations should be done by the new year.

We still have some availability through Christmas - and an exciting Black Friday sale coming up! On Friday, the 29th, from 6am-12pm, if you book a stay of 3 or more nights, you'll get a discount of 20% off your entire stay.
*Bookings can be made up to 8 months in advance, you may be subject to a cancellation fee if you cancel within 30 days of your stay. Thank you!

OH MY FUCK WHY DID I SIGN UP FOR A JOB THAT IS CONSTANT CUSTOMER SERVICE

Sorry, that was dramatic. Someone come wrap me in a blanket and save me from myself.

Nadia, lovely beautiful talented new niece of mine, what are you doing this afternoon?

I am not good at social media. Never know what to put in or how to use it effectively. But I need to learn. The kid is going to grow into this and I should be ready. So here goes.

I'm Daniel. Just moved here and currently at the Cozy Cottage, though I'm signing papers for a rental on Monday. It's just the kid and I, and we'll be learning more about this place through the weekend, I hope. Is that enough? How do I send

Based on the conversation we had on here recently, I compiled a list of everyone who is Dreaming--both public and anonymously. Out of respect for your interests, I only included those who specifically commented to be included on the list. In addition to compiling the list, I have also put together a semi-brief document for those who have questions about these Dreams since we continue to have a lot of newcomers who are otherwise unprepared for when these Dreams hit...or are just super confused by at the talk of Dreams on this network.

The resource (which includes the list of Dreamers) can be found here.

I wanted to go ahead an open this post up, as well, for anyone who wants to add their User ID (public or anonymous) to this list, or potentially update their information on the list. I only included Sources that have been discussed publicly on this network, regardless of whether or not I was familiar with a Source existing here. So for anyone listed as Not Disclosed, it is entirely up to you as to whether or not you want that "spoiled" for you.

Which also raises another question which I would like to answer on the list. If you are on this list, do you want a) others to reach out to you and/or b) others to give you information about your Source if they know it? Please answer below, if you can or want to!

Could I pick your brains about something? I know there has been A Lot going on the past week or so and I didn't want to make anymore Big Decisions until things felt a little more settled, but I've been tossing an idea around for months now and I think I need to act on it sooner rather than later considering that I have to make plans in the very near future for what I'm going to do in January.

50% off on oil changes and basic tune ups through the month of November. Come in if you want to get tuned up and prepped for winter.

Hey, so I've got some news. Now that I have talked to my parents and siblings about it, I figure it's a good time to let everyone else know.

Long story short, a girl came into town a week ago looking for me, because she thought I was her father. Her name is Nadia Travers, though she also goes by Jessie, and she's 20 and was raised in Las Vegas by her mother, who I knew very briefly during a vacation back, well, about twenty years ago. And, yeah, we've confirmed that she's definitely mine.

Just to head some questions off at the pass: I'm doing fine. I've mostly gotten past the shock and am just trying to move forward with the knowledge. She's also seeming to be doing all right. She is planning on staying in town, which I'm glad for as I have a lot of time to make up for. But since she'll be here, I'd love it if any of you who might be around her age would be willing to reach out to her and give her some friends and connections in town. She's only been here a week and it's been a pretty busy one, but I think it would do her well to have a solid support system.

[...] Anyway. There you have it.

NADIA

I heard you went shopping today.

Five years I've been in this apartment and now after a week of final packing, moving, and cleaning, I just turned my key in. I ate a lot of good food in that apartment and even had a very nice roommate for a hot second before she ruthlessly abandoned me (😏), but I'm not too sad to see it go.

Onto even better things.

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

( Delivered in-person to Romy at the hospital around noon! )

ROMY

KESI

Guess what I stole from Bash's garage today?

I'm just saying, if anyone wants to offer me ice cream while I'm delivering your mail tomorrow, I won't say no. Pass it on!

I mean, at least it's a day off work, right?

MANDA & ISAIAH

Not really feeling the whole town-wide celebration. Wanna do something else, or have you already got plans?

36.

I'm not sure what to do with that number. Other than use it as an excuse to eat cake, of course. That I can do.
