Is It Spring Yet?

Hello Everyone,

Just when you think it’s finally here, spring fools us and goes away again for awhile. Today has been a day to open windows and doors and enjoy the breeze. Tomorrow it’s supposed to change drastically and snow by Sunday. Glad it won’t stay, at least that’s some consolation.

Not a lot to report. Life has been rather mundane…. eat, sleep, go to work……..how exciting!!!

I have enjoyed the posts…..so keep them up! And I’m jealous of Jenn and her license plate… Why didn’t I think of that? And if you’ve heard from her tell her I said hi….. she’s reverting back to her old self…. all work and no play….. and no calling her mom.  Actually, I did talk to her today…for about 2 minutes…. she’s working a lot (and probably enjoying it too). She’s lucky, one person who likes what she does, or if she doesn’t like it she still gives it her all. And there are a few perks, how many people do you know who get to go to all the places she goes and call it work? The only place I get to go is Pontiac…..uhmmmmm.

I do have a question for you. From my readings and from talking to some friends who have had recent losses, I have become more aware of an extraordinary experience that some people have had when a loved one is lost. This has been reported to one of my friends when she lost her husband and at least three people reported it to me. They told me that on the day and at the time Kerrie left us, that they had some type of unusual experience. They sensed that something had happened or someone had passed on. I am wondering if anyone else had this happen to them. I won’t tell you the day or date, because the event wouldn’t be anything you would have marked on your calendar. You would have realized or thought of it when you heard the news. And if something did happen, if you thought you saw or heard from Kerrie or felt something had changed your weren’t nuts. I would like it if you would share it with me….. and you can send it to my email if you’r prefer.

Keep in touch and keep up the posts!……..We really love them.

Love you all……and Happy Sort of Spring

Joan

    Ugh, I too remember the day Kerrie died. It wasn’t raining in Texas. My mom and sister were visiting me from Houston. I was at my neighbors house, and my son, RJ, went to their computer to check this site. He walked out on the back porch and just shook his head. My mom immediately starting bawling. I haven’t seen my mom cry like that in a long time. She kept saying she couldn’t believe the little girl next door was gone. Cathy, mom, and me all cried together. Funny shortly after, I had a dream about her. She was young and in our backyard on Red Arrow. She was on that pine lawn furniture you had…Mr. McGowen of all people was there, along with my dad. It was such a peaceful dream, I knew she was at peace. I hugged her in the dream and when I woke up I was freaked out because I felt like electric was going thru my body. I can’t explain it. Since then, I have seen many people who remind me of Kerrie. Over New Years in Vegas, I swear I saw her…I grabbed my hubby and said, come look at this lady! He thought I was crazy. Sometimes, she just pops into my mind out of nowhere. When I think of Kerrie, it brings me peace.

    Love,
    Pam

    Oh, and I forgot. Before I sent RJ to check the website, I knew she was gone. I don’t know how or why. I just knew…

    Hi Pam,
    I’m so glad you told this and I’m glad you told it now when I know more about ADC (after death communication). That wasn’t just a dream you had, it was Ker and your Dad and they chose a place where they would look familiar. Ker probably does look younger… how did your dad look? and he must be hanging out with Mr. McGowan(has he passed on? Do you know?)I’m so jealous you got to hug her. I haven’t had any dreams like that yet, and the one time I saw her at work she was distant and I didn’t even realize I was seeing her until I looked away and then she was gone.

    All these types of things are documented and I’ve read some pretty credible books with a lot of research. OK, I know you guys are out there rolling your eyes and smirking………but wait till it happens to you! I’ve decided to follow the suggestion in some of the literature and not hide what I’ve felt and seen. Most people do because they are worried people will think they are crazy. A lot of people already think I’m crazy so what’s to lose….and that’s why I asked this question about who might have heard from Kerrie. I know there are more of you out there. Come on, fess up!!!

    Hi Joan,

    Yes, Mr. McGowan has passed. I actually think I went to his funeral years ago before we left Michigan. It was just so funny for of all people him to be in my dream! Yes, my dad was young, and so was Kerrie, just how I remember her. I do believe like you. The funny feeling I had when I woke up proves it. I’ve communicated with my dad thru dreams since his death years ago, (I know y’all think I’m crazy). I was upset because I didn’t come see Kerrie before she died, and I think my dad brought her to me, and Mr. McGowen came along…

    Pam,
    You are validating everything I’ve been reading……how our loved ones look younger and well… and how they have connected with old friends, neighbors, etc. They are all together in their new homes…

    Kerrie hasn’t come to me in dreams or if she has I don’t remember them….once in a while I wake up and think maybe I have, but can’t remember for sure….the day I saw her she looked the way she did at work… probably because we were in her department next to her station. But she looked well and happy and was smiling as she waved at me.

    I haven’t felt her close for awhile… but I understand that she is on a journey….one of the things the readings tell us is that the souls need to move on and if we grieve to heavily we hold them back from their development…so I told her it’s ok if she has things to do…. just come back once in a while to say hi…. i know if i really need her she will be there because she’s always watching….

    I know there are people who read this site who have had similar experiences with others, family, friends, even people they didn’t know. Not everyone recognizes what these dreams or encounters are…if anyone has had something like this happen, share it with us…. and no…. you’re not crazy either.

    take care
    love ya

    Joan,

    My dad and mom were married on Valentine’s Day. The Valentine’s Day after his death, my mom called me to the sliding glass door. There on the door was a perfectly shaped heart with an arrow through it frozen on the doorwall. It was just the frost on the door, but it looked like it had been stenciled. I have never forgotten that…

    When I was little, Dad and me always listened to that song from John Denver, “Sunshine on my shoulder.” He would say I was the sunshine on his shoulder. When my mom first took me out to the cemetary after his death, I was frightened to go out to his grave. That song came on the radio at that very moment…I have never forgotten that as well.

    I could go on, if my mom were here she would tell you stories about seeing her sister after she died, and the many things that have proved to her there is a way to communicate after death. Mom always said that Dad and her always had an agreement…Whoever died first, would somehow send the other sign that there was life after death…

    I could spend a lot of time telling you stories about experiences I have had, but I will end here. I too, encourage others to tell stories of experiences they have had. I’m not talking ghost stories, just experiences you have had with any one you have lost.

    Love, Pam
