   The dreamer (basically, from my own perspective) was in the living room (west   
   side) facing west or somehow otherwise occupied, when my dad was noticed   
   sitting (on the east wall of the living room) in the reclining chair, with my   
   mother sitting in his lap,   
    fiddling with the lumbar support belt she's been wearing the past few weeks.    
   I *believe* I said "Hey Dad!  How long've you been there?" and felt happy to   
   see him, although it wasn't until a few moments later, after the dream had   
   "popped," that I    
   realized he'd passed away *years* ago (IRL.)  Clarity 9+  (It's *possible*   
   this may simply be his way of saying "Happy Valentine's Day!" to my mother!)

   Meanwhile, there was a second dream having to do with a kind of "box" not   
   unlike those phone utility junction boxes at the side of the road in some   
   places.  There was a kind of inner "shield" of about 2'–3' wide by 1½–2'   
   high, and maybe ¼" thick,    
   possibly of metal.  The dreamer retracted it from the deeper (upright) box   
   shell it was in, then replaced it, as if it simply works better that way, kind   
   of like how one normally stows a shelf within a trunk.  The box itself had a   
   kind of feel to it as    
   if it were somehow used to control something else.  The nearest "real life"   
   equivalent that pops into mind is an electronic voting machine.  Hopefully,   
   God willing, all those will be "thrown out" during all future election   
   processes (IRL.)  Clarity 7,    
   although I really can't remember much about the dream itself.
