The Dreaming – Installment #16

The Dreaming

Dana stood in front of her kitchen window, watching Peaches and Cream play in the backyard.

The golden retrievers were litter mates that she and the twins had been given as puppies by her parents.

The day before her was full of cooking and writing. She had a deadline and she was glad that if she missed it she wouldn’t actually end up dead. She might wish she was, though.

 

As always, thank you for reading,

Desert Sunrise release day cvr

 

In Desert Sunrise, book two of my Natural Gifts series of Uplifting Paranormal Romances, Lucy and Stan have a romantic night under the stars.  This video will give you an idea of what that night looked like for them.

That’s also the night that their natural gift starts to unfold.  Oh, what a night!  And you may understand more of why I love this beautiful desert!

The Dreaming – Installment #14

The Dreaming

Dana knew they were only halfway through the first list. “Man,” she thought, “if I wanted to work this hard I would just wake up.”

“Wake up!” One of her sweet 16-year-olds was shaking her. “I can’t find my blue plaid jacket and I told Jim I would wear it today.”

The dregs of the dream dissolved into the familiar surroundings of her own king-sized, pillow topped mattress with the iron head and foot board she adored. She was wearing her cozy faux suede green sweats. And she was, thankfully, no longer doing kitchen duty in The Dreaming.

The Dreaming

The list was long, and the dinner bot wasn’t back. Hmm. She decided to “think” another order onto the trays, and another, until the trays were full.
She looked at the motionless silver-haired man. “Dinner bot,” she said, in a tone that couldn’t be thought of as a question.
The dinner bot appeared in the room, sprouting arms for all the orders and disappearing down the long hallway again. She returned bearing all empty dishes and a new list.

The chicken and dumplings on another.
The dinner bot collected the items and left through the doorway, gliding down a long hallway she couldn’t see the end of once the dinner bot took the right hand turn.
She looked at the next order and “thought” it down the tubes. There it was! She was filled with confidence again. She knew she could do this.

The Dreaming

She might as well give it a try. The first order was chicken and dumplings, Perrier, and a slice of apple pie a la mode. She stood in front of one of the tubes and visualized the order coming down and settling on the tray.

The Perrier appeared on one tray with a clear glass of ice beside it.

The apple pie a la mode appeared on another tray.

The Dreaming

Tension started to roll off her, her confidence building. She could do this! Gosh darn it!

The three of them stood there for what felt like hours. Nothing happened. She considered whether or not to ask another question. There was, after all, no guarantee that she would get an answer.

She studied the clear tubes in the walls that ended in metal trays, and the list she now held in her hand. It seemed that the food must come down the tubes. Her logical mind laughed at her. Why would any of this qualify as logical?

Dana reached for the list, noting that it was not in English. She thought it looked like French and wished that she had paid more attention when various opportunities to learn the language had presented themselves. She looked at the list again, thinking that her extreme interest in food might help her understand the list.

Nope.

She wished the list was in English. She looked down at the list again. It was now in English.

Puzzled, but confident that everything could still work out well, a flash of insight came to her. “Can I please have more questions?”

The silver-haired man blinked at her, silently.

What she assumed was a dinner bot came through an opening bearing a tray with a three foot long list trailing from it. She stood six feet tall and looked like any waitress Dana would normally imagine. “Orders,” she said in a robotic monotone.

Just when we* thought that Peaches, Cream, and Dan are the most inventive dogs in the World, we came across this video.  We’re wondering what would happen if we showed the video to the dogs, you know, to inspire them…

And hey, if your dogs can do this, please share the story.  Did you charm them into it?

 

Happy Holidays from our family to yours!
