Below is what I like to see in a psychic novice, humor. Without it, this world is no fun. And it can help in very stressful times, especially when you are embarking upon something new. After you read her return to me, then I will tell you one of my little ghost stories. Enjoy her. She sounds like fun. And, by the way, since the other side knows you can see them, someone will be there most of the time.

“Great, thank you!! That helps. I just wish my ghost didn’t always show up when the house is really a mess, because that’s embarrassing. (ha!) I think it’s here pretty much all the time, though, because I always feel a presence. Your book sounds wonderful, by the way, and I will be ordering it tomorrow. Sounds very interesting and helpful. Take care. ”

Some years ago, a psychic friend of mine who had died, and I talked to regularly, came to see me in the bathtub. That is where I take the time to really listen to the myriads of people talking and if an old, dead friend wants to get my attention, that is one of the best places to do so. I say he was a psychic but really he was a graphologist. Anyway, he and another psychic male I knew were both dead. And I was speaking with my old friend telling him that I wondered if the other dead psychic knew I hadn’t done what was said I had done.

By this time I was out of the tub putting on lotion, brushing my teeth. You know all it is. As I was doing so, standing there naked, I heard a man say, “I see you naked.” Even though I knew he was dead, without thinking, I reached for my towel. It didn’t occur to me how many times a ghost had seen me naked. All that occurred was a man was watching me other than my husband.

His laughter at seeing me get the towel stopped me. Then I announced to him. It didn’t matter because he was a ghost.

See sometimes being a medium is a lot to bear….oooh that was bad.

Well, they say three times is the charm. Guess who visited me again? And I really don’t think I had been so bad karmically that it should have. But he raised his ugly head again and bit me for the third time. And the reason I call this wiley stomach virus he is because he just kept coming back.

I am getting better again. Today is the best I have felt since last week and I am hoping that the little bugger stays gone this time. Some good food would taste wonderful but even the thought of that is not the best. So, please pray that my stomach gets better and stays that way.

Here is another question asked of me. Hope that I am helping when I give you answers.

“You have probably answered this question before, but I am just wondering why ghosts or spirits feel a need to make their presence known. I have had several instances where the lid on my trash can has started swinging for no apparent reason. Also, my dog looks up a lot at the ceiling and seems to be staring or focusing on something and sometimes his eyes move from one side of the ceiling to the other, as if he is watching something. I never feel afraid when this happens, just curious to know what may be causing it.”

The reason ghosts make themselves known to us is for a myriad of reasons. Sometimes they want the company, or just want to make known that there is life after death, or need you to talk to someone they loved and it goes on and on. One of their favorite ways to get you attention is walking overhead so that you can hear footfalls. Another is to move items. And one of my favorites is to get an animals attention. Because when they get an animals attention, like your puppy, then you will most likely notice. You can’t write off that the animal watched them move.

I am glad that you are not afraid. People visiting you from the other side are not the kind who would want you to be frightened.

Here I am again with another question because I think it will help. Her question is:

“Hi, i want to help a close friend of mine, she has 2 ghosts in her home, one of the is black, very tall, the other one is dark brown.. the black one follows to my friend, the brown one follows her younger son. These ghosts make them feel tired, they take all their energy. Do you know what this difference in their color means? Is this something important to consider about? thanks… ”

Ghosts come in differing colors, sizes, shapes, different forms and something other than human. Now what I really want to talk about is the fact that you say the ghosts take your friend and her son’s energy. Ghosts don’t do that but as an empath, we don’t just take on the energy of other spirits but sometimes feed our energy to those we feel might need it. Perhaps your friends are doing just that.

Right now, I am entertaining a ghostly person at my house that likes to shadow around. Last night, while working on my computer, he eased up behind me and allowed his shadow to fall across my head and reflect off my computer screen. Being the logical person I am, I had to look behind me when I felt him and saw what he had done to make sure that I wasn’t working so hard that I missed Claude sneak up behind me. I wasn’t and, by the way, this ghost likes to wear and look very dark.

Thanks for the good wishes. Had a question that I would like to share with you. As you know, when I get a question I feel can help others I try to anwer it right away. I love working with people who have been born again to the other side and I love letting them speak through me to help educate those who want to learn. I am rambling on……here is the question:

“If you are feeling better I would like to know if a deceased person knows the anniversary of their death and does this mean anything to them? The date of my Dad’s death is coming up and I was wondering does he know like we know?”

People on the other side can see the future, past and present. They know about anniversaries such as birth, death, etc. but they only worry about them because of us. Those events don’t mean that much to them but they will be around when they know the event means something to you. Your dad will try to be close to comfort the ones he loves. Love is something that travels to the other side just as a lot of other emotions, additions and other items do.

Hate to say this again because I sound as if all I am trying to do is sell my book and I am but…….Ghosts Talk answers so much of this and more. The reason I wrote it was to try to help others learn about their future which is on the other side too.

Day before yesterday, while standing in line at the post office, two women came in behind me. One was holding a little, sleeping girl about 2 or 3 years old. When one woman asked the other how her family was doing, she said so that all could hear, “Oh, my son has flu and I sent him to school yesterday with a fever but I thought he would be better. And my other daughter has it too. Now, I think the one I am holding is getting it.”

These two women weren’t 2 feet from me. Upon hearing this, I turned to them and told them to stay away from me. Generally, I am a little nicer when I say things such as this, but as you well know, Claude has diabetes that he got after the stroke. His doctor told me to keep him away from anything that could make him sick. And I try. The two women looked at me as if I was the most horrible person in the world. I explained about my husband and about that time he walked into the post office. That’s when I asked him politely if he would wait in the car. I didn’t want him exposed.

Maybe I am old-fashioned but when my children were sick, I didn’t send them to school with a fever, nor did I visit the post office so that my child could infect everyone around. Now, there have been times when I wasn’t aware either my child or I was ill. Then later found out but I wouldn’t intentionally carry my child out in public when she was ill either. To me that is a very selfish act. It says that you care for no one but yourself.

Well, later yesterday afternoon I began to see the gift I had gotten for Christmas. You remember, a stomach virus. Maybe it was karma for my having bad thoughts about those two women. I try not to think ill of anyone. Today I am feeling better but still have a headache. One thing is for sure. I will try not to go out and infect anyone else. This is not one of those pass it along kind of gifts.

Like everyone should feel or at least I think they should, the best part of work is the compliments. I seem to thrive on them. When people write, call or just plain tell me that I have helped them, it fills my heart with joy.

I have been known to work for hours on some crime, animal or some other need without being paid. All I ask is that I am not taken advantage of and sometimes I ask to find out how it all came out.

Several years ago I helped a woman whose sister was missing. After telling the woman that her sister would return by next Tuesday and that she hadn’t been abducted and was fine, the only thing I asked the woman was that she tell me when her sister returned so I wouldn’t be worried for her. Well, she didn’t. I had to call to find out. And I got to hear, “Well, you told me she would come back and she did.”

Another such story was one where I was looking for a granddaughter, told the grandparents where she was, spent the whole afternoon with them finding the girl and then, as tired as I was and after trying to help all afternoon to find a missing person, the grandmother did something that clearly upset me. She asked when her son was going to get married. After all, I had been helping her all day for free. Bet she would have worked for her employer for free all day. And bet she helps a neighbor or stanger just the way I helped her….not…… Why wouldn’t I give her informtion then on future events for her and the family. Immediately, I looked at the clock and said, “You want to go on the clock now?” Then I told her how much I charge. See and that sounds so petty of me but……..You want to know what she said, “No, she just wanted to know.”

This woman and the other didn’t think of me. They were users and I bet they do that every day with others. You want to know what makes that kind of behavior OK with me even though it really isn’t and believe me, I see that kind of action a lot. The thing that makes me keep right on giving and going is people like this one….. “I can’t thank you enough for encouraging me as you have. Thank you so very much. I have trusted you for over a decade and now.. well, I just love you! Thank you !!!!” And thank God, I get more of those than the others. So you can see why I work for compliments. They make me feel as if I have accomplished something good.

something that is about to happen, whether it is national or family and friends, my stomach feels as if heavy iron butterflies are fluttering about in there. Not to mention that my whole body shakes from the inside out. And that is the way I have been feeling for a few days now. I have many reasons for the feeling. Some I won’t mention but I also think there is more headed our way.

I haven’t heard anyone else with the same complaint but generally it takes others a few days to start, even some of my psychic friends. This is the way I felt right before the shuttlecraft blew up over us. And the way I feel before a big earthquake, you get it. Not a fun feeling and right now I am really feeling it.

You know they say, and rightfully so, if you watch animals in the zoo they will tell you when an earthquake is about to happen. If they feel the way I do, then I can understand it.

It may be because our weather changed so drastically overnight. But then again…….

This morning I woke up to something that hasn’t happened for us in months, little raindrops. There wasn’t a lot but I gloried in the fact that there was enough to wet the concrete. All day long, it has looked as if there just might be an occasion for a little more but……

I will still hope for rain and look forward to it. But I will be satisfied with the small amount we have seen this morning and be glad that it didn’t flood.

As with most weekends, I am doing work around the house. Yesterday, it was concrete work. Today housework. Something I have come to understand is that I don’t really like housework. I love being able to work towards something I like to do like the psychic but I don’t and I mean don’t like doing housework.

So why is it that I have been doing it almost my whole life? And why is it I chose to become a woman this time so that I would have to be responsible for the house? Well, we all have our spiritual lessons and this must be mine.

I don’t mind working really hard either but, and you know what I am about to say…….I could do without any housework.

Another thing I don’t really love anymore is cooking. Claude says I am a wonderful scratch cook but it time it takes to do the cooking seems to take time away from what I really love doing. And I think I have come to an age when time is very important. I keep hearing that old song…Tiiiiiiiime is on my side, yes it is.

Hope you have had a nice Sunday too.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you about the ghost in my bathroom. While I was mopping the floor, this man kept showing his shadow about three feet from mine but he was racing across the floor. He wanted me to see him. I just learned from Cathy that the man who named her died about the time I was moping my floor. Of course he would come to see the child he had named.
