   So after catching up from a delayed post from *yesterday*, most of last   
   night's / this morning's dreams are evaporated (forgotten for now?) however   
   there was this one bit that caught most of my attention:   
      
   The dreamer was at a home *very similar* to my former location on Asbury Lane,   
   only this house was more of a structure built from the ground up, rather than   
   a mobile home / pre-manufactured housing.  Upon entering it from the back, the   
   dreamer felt as if    
   he were the seller of the home, as if he still owned it but had already   
   stripped most everything out of it in preparation for the sale / moving.  What   
   caught the dreamer's attention the *most* was this one bare wall along what   
   seemed like the living room,   
    yet this more resembled the house I bought in La Vergne (back around '06?)   
   and *also* seemed more like having come in through the *front* door than the   
   back (the house at 1502 Caney Fork Court has a front door that opens into a   
   living room, similar to    
   what was seen in this dream.)  The dreamer acted / felt *as if* the house were   
   being shown to a prospective buyer, and the first thought that crossed the   
   dreamer's mind was the condition of the now-bare wall, which was clearly   
   marred / dirty in the sense    
   that it *seriously* needed a fresh coat of white paint (as did most of the   
   living room.  I actually recall having painted the room at 1502 at some time   
   in the past.  I wonder if it's ever been painted since?)   
      
   There was another scene involving *something like* a closet-located ladder   
   that led to a roof access, and a *brief* view as if outward *from* the roof,   
   as if the camera view were as that of warm air escaping from a roof vent.    
   There was *some* near-   
   conscious debate upon whether the vent faced west (toward I-24, back on Asbury   
   Lane) or east (toward Asbury Lane) but again, one can see that this scene   
   involved the superimposition of the two different homes into one dream scene.    
   (Clarity 6 due to the    
   superimposition, otherwise, they'd each have been around 7.)   
      
   There was another brief dream snip of a female *similar* to Gina only with   
   long, reddish hair (on or just a tad beyond shoulder length.)  Sadly, I can't   
   recall *any* of this dream, other than the memory of having experienced it   
   (clarity 2 or 3, perhaps?)    
   although "her" image seems rather distinct.  I have a *hunch* that this was   
   due to my having been "married" to Helen ('92-'95) while still searching for   
   the path that leads me to Gina.   
      
   NOTE:  this isn't from a dream, but from real life.... yesterday, my mother   
   remarked on how my dog (Ginger) is the perfect shade (reddish-brown, "Ginger")   
   while her face has *just* the right amount of a dash of white, kinda like a   
   "flash" or "splash" or "   
   streak".  There's a word specifically used to describe this in dog-descriptive   
   terms, but I can't quite nail it down at this moment as I type.  Something to   
   know about this dog, Ginger, is that she's *unbelievably* attached to me!  I   
   mean, some dogs are    
   protective, while others are "aloof", and some may be "disobedient," but she   
   is *devoted,* perhaps to the amount that Queeny was back in my youth.  It   
   occurred to me, that between the color of her coat and the splash on her face,   
   her actual "full" name    
   could be "Ginger White" :-) (although I'm not entirely certain how Gina would   
   feel about that!) :-)
