    Ghosts...

    My dreams are extremely vivid. I may not be able to remember them completly, but can wake up with most details. My sister who I lost 16 years ago, was 36 at the time. She was overweight, my whole family was. But in my dreams she's thin, young and beautiful. When we talk its as if she never died. One of my first dreams of her she was asking what I did with the money (I received an insurance settlement as one of her beneficiaries) right away I told her she can have the money, its hers. She told me to keep it. I woke up frazzled, I did put 8K down on my first condo. She believed she was an old soul and has been on the earth several times before, saying that at one time she was a black slave helping others to freedom like Harriett Tubmen. She also believed I was once a mother of 8 kids and even bought me mothers day cards... My Mom looks as she did when she died and seems like she still alive also. My dad never touches the ground, (I believe its because he was cremated) he sit in a chair about 6 feet off the ground with a big smile and doesn't say anything.. My sister and dad use-to bicker and fight all the time. When she died the others in the family decided to put my dads urn in the casket with her, I thought nothing of it until they were lowering the casket into the ground, I said what did we do they're fighting already...

    Ghosts...

    You may think I'm nuts......The ex-husbands Mom, who died in the house as well. I had been dating him a few months and decided to move into his home just prior to marriage. The first time I saw her she was just a blur of a tall lady with short brunette hair down a long hallway. I thought I was nuts, apparently I described her to a T. Late at night if I got up and went pass the family room the rocking chair would be rocking. The oddest thing was one day cleaning around the house and doing laundry I kept going back and forth past the kitchen table out to the garage. There was a penny on the floor next to the kitchen table at the foot of a chair. Everytime I passed that penny It was like she was telling me to pick up the penny. Finally I picked it up starring at the chair as if she was sitting in it and I said "Are you happy now, I picked up the penny" When I told the ex-husband his jaw dropped and he told me how she always sang this song about pick up the penny, whenever there was a penny on the ground. I got used to her being around it was her house. My sister and my mom visit me in my dreams, Its like they never died.

    frist day of school

    Wow Queen, today was the first day of school for my 2nd grader Roxanne. Its been almost 3 months since I've seen some other parents and was delighted with all the comments of weight loss even though I've only lost maybe 5 lbs. all summer. I also have a 3 year old boy and I'm 45 years old and have allot of the same thoughts as you. Just think we'll be 59 years old when the 3 years olds graduate from high school.
  6. Yep, Alex sent me a personal letter the day I joined this forum and I read a post from him a couple of months ago but that's the last I've heard of him. Alexandra doesn't miss a thing and she's a very talented writer. Thanks again! Hey How's Alexis?

    So Happy for you Penni! Shopping is now fun and not a chore! Yesterday we were driving home from Disneyland and we decided to stop for lunch on Sunset Blvd. Then kept driving through Beverly Hills and caught the 405 north. Low and behold I see Van Nuys and rolled down the window and yelled "Hey Penni" Did you hear me?? LOL. Billy looks at me strange as I explain that you live there...So you can say I think about you guys all the time.
