BREAD BASKET

So I started on the floor last week at my new job at Olive Garden. I was so nervous about it but things went pretty well. It’s a long freakin day that is fo sho! I gots me some achie breakie feet action going on!

Andrew helped keep me straight, especially this one time. *at band camp* (American Pie fans will get that one. Man am I tired!) Anyway, I bring back some dirty dishes and go to put the bread basket (Jeezus these ppl love their bread at Olive Garden!) back with the others, when it goes flying off the shelf. I mean, it took me aback the way it went flying, like someone hit it off the shelf! I grab it off the floor and I as I do I feel Andrew’s energy, and I heard, “Mommy dishwasher!” DUH! I’m suppose to put it back by the dish washer! That coulda led to some sort of bread basket gate if someone had seen me put a used bread basket with the clean ones! It was then I realized it was Muck that smacked it off the shelf. It made me smile and know that my Muck was watching out for me where he can.

So as I leave the lunch shift and go home before my dinner shift, I’m walking to my car and my awareness goes back the bread basket “incident.” I then feel Andrew’s energy and “hear” him say, “How’d ya like the way I bitch slapped your bread basket Mommy!?” I’m LMAO as I’m walking to my car (it still makes me laugh thinking about it) and answer “Nice one Muck! Thanks!” He says, “I got your back Pretty Mama!” I had to remember he’s 18yo now & that’s something he’d say to me now if he was physically here. I was questioning whether it was him or not because of the bitch slap remark, but then I was reminded of his age in Earth years. ;-)

Now when I say “hear” it’s more like quick thoughts that come into my mind. How do I know it’s Andrew? Because of how I feel when it happens. Never a dull moment my nizzels! :-D

IT’S ALL GOOD!

1 DEGREE OF SEPARATION

I’ve been meaning to write this post for nearly a week now but with the new job, it has been difficult. SO here it finally is.

When you have a child on the Other Side, you do learn a heck of a lot. Like when they say we are all one, therefore all connected, you really get to see it in action. People that you have never met you find you are connected to. It is pretty cool to witness. Would I prefer Andrew here instead? In a heartbeat! But since he no longer is, you have to look for the blessings and teachings in all this.

Martin had a client whose daughter had passed in a car crash when she was in her early 20’s about 5 years ago. Andrew showed up with her in this reading. They know each other and are actually working on a project together. They didn’t tell us what kind of project. Just because you are psychic, doesn’t mean you get ALL the answers like a lot of people believe! I know, bummer, but that just isn’t how things work! Welcome to Earth! :-D

Martin had this reading the day I had the message of “Ul b ok” on the license plate of the Ford Focus as I was going to work. (see previous post if you don’t know what I’m talking about.) Sometimes these signs just keep on giving and are just a set up for more teachings!

Martin found out that this client’s daughter passed in a car crash in what?? A FORD FOCUS! Coinkeedink? I think not! Not when it comes to Spirit! Oh but it doesn’t end there! Andrew was standing behind her and whispers in her ear what to say to Martin. What does she say? Something Martin can not repeat to his client, that is fo sho! This one was strictly for Martin’s ears…and my blog! ;-) Muck told her to say, F.O.R.D.= Found On Road Dead! Now you gotta understand, for those who have crossed it is NOT a tragedy, they are truly Home, they are where we spend most of our time. They see how our time here is so limited and “death” is just a continuation of what has always been.

Martin says to Andrew, “Dude, you just didn’t tell her to say that! I am NOT repeating that to her mother!” Although, her mother was very open and knows there is so much more than here. Her daughter has the same kind of energy as Andrew, they just got it when they were here. But there was no way Martin was repeating that one to her mother!

Andrew then peeks over her shoulder and says “Too soon Daddy?” Martin sez, “ya think?” Then Andrew and this girl start laughing. Glad they are having such a great time, us parents are STILL not amused and still trying to deal with losing our kids physical presence! But it’s good to know that our kids are having such a great time! Actually hearing stories like these really do make my day! I LOVE hearing what Andrew is doing and how he is working with and effecting other people…here and there. It’s pretty cool and it helps me to not get caught up in all the BS of this dimension, because no what matter happens here….

IT’S ALL GOOD!

FOCUS! FOCUS! FOCUS!

I started at the Olive Garden last week with training. I wasn’t going to look for a job when I gave my notice at my old job. But then Chris, who I worked with, had started at Olive Garden and strongly recommended that I apply. I did apply, not thinking I would get the job. I was interested in the job because of the intense training they give you, ( I need it after being out of the serving biz for over 21yrs) the great benefits and wonderful atmosphere. I figure this was the job that could help me with my focus and memory. Since everything that has happened, starting with Elatia first, then right into Andrew, my focus has been right out the window! But it’s time to start getting my focus and memory working again. It’s time.

Today I was in training, had a break for 2 hours, then had to go back and do a dinner service following a server. Needless to say I am overwhelmed by the training, but the up side is, is that so are the other trainees. I am not alone in that department! Between trying to learn the menu, the computer system, the drink menu, how to serve proper, carrying big trays, etc etc we are all a little freaked about going on the floor and US being followed tomorrow.

As I was on my way back to work tonight to follow a server, I was going over in my head what I thought I would need to know. Driving to work I was wondering if I would do a good enough job, hoping I could do a good enough job, when I “happen” to notice the license plate in front of me. I wasn’t purposely looking at plates or anything when I notice the license plate in front of me, I was too worried about how I was gonna do tonight. For whatever reason ;-) I notice this plate in front of me and it said “UL B OK” OMG! R U KIDDIN ME with this!? I was stunned! I had that feeling you get when you have a metaphysical or paranormal moment. I got light headed as I could feel Andrew so strongly with me! I called Martin to tell him. He asked, “You’re crying aren’t you?” “Yes I am!” I replied. I couldn’t help it, I could feel my son’s energy and it brought me to tears. Happy to feel his energy so strongly, sad that I couldn’t hug him, but mostly happy.

Then I told Martin how cool I thought it was to get such a perfect message like that from my wee son, the only down side was that it was on a Ford Focus. I’ve gotten messages on BMWs & other luxury cars. Martin said, “What have you been working on lately?” OMG again! FOCUS is what I’ve been working on! DUH! How perfect! It just solidified for me that Andrew was talking to me and letting me know that I will be ok with this job. He’s a good son still watching out and being there for his Pretty Mama! ;-)

IT’S ALL GOOD!

Walmart Outting w/Muck

AND not because of a zombie infestation either! LOL

I can’t stress enough how important it is to acknowledge the signs our transitioned loved ones send us. Don’t brush them off or try to explain it away. You’d be surprised how connected you will feel to them when you thank them for sending the sign. Why wouldn’t you want to feel good and connected to your TLO? SO the next time a TLO sends you a sign, no matter how small, say thank you and take a moment to feel them, see how powerful that really is!

Take today for instance, Martin and I go to Walmart so I can get some work clothes. As I was parking the car, Martin, noticed a license plate that had MAY 121. May 12th is Muck’s birthday, and 1 is his destiny number. We took that as a “hello, I’m with ya Mommy and Daddy!”

As we were walking around Walmart talking about the license plate being a way of Muck letting us know he was there, I was whining how I wanted Muck back, I wish it wasn’t just signs from him. (but grateful that I get them). As I was whining about wanting my son back in my arms, and not being a grandmother and probably won’t ever be, (oh yea, I can be a real joy sometimes!) Martin said “Look at that.” I look over at the baby bibs he was pointing at and there was a camouflage green bib just like Muck’s shorts, that said, “My daddy is my HERO!” I made Muck a sign while we were in the hospital that he was my hero. Martin and I both could feel Muck’s energy with us.

Again, it’s the little things as well we should acknowledge, mo matter how small. As Martin and I were walking down an aisle, 2 women were walking past us and one said she had to go get some Puffs tissues for her nose. Puff’s were Andrew favorite tissues while he was in the hospital. I thanked him for another “Hello!” It’s not about whether it’s really your TLO’s or not,(but it IS them!) it’s about how it makes us feel, and if it makes us feel closer to our TLO’s than why not?! In order to move through grief, you have to find those moments that make you feel good and look for them every chance you get.

For instance, the other day on my way to work, I noticed the mini cooper in front of me. They had an “Imagine” license that said “FAB 4 ME” I took it as a “Hello Mommy, I’m going to work with you today.” In case you don’t know, Imagine is Muck’s fav John Lennon song, and I think Muck was also reminding me that things are indeed fabulous for him. While I know it is, it’s us that it sucks for that he moved on from here, it’s a nice reminder that things are fab for him.

I think the song “I’LL BE THERE” by the Escape Club says it all.

over Mountains
over Trees
over Oceans
over Seas
across the desert
I’ll be there

in a whisper on the wind
on the smile of a new friend
just think of me
And I’ll be there

Don’t be afraid, oh my love
I’ll be watching you from above
And I’d give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I’m on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I’ve gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I’ll be there

On the edge of a waking dream
over Rivers
over Streams
through Wind and Rain
I’ll be there

Across the wide and open sky
thousands of miles I’d fly
to be with you
I’ll be there

Don’t be afraid, oh my love
I’ll be watching you from above
And I’d give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I’m on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I’ve gone nowhere

Just think of me,
And I’ll be there

In the breath of a wind that sighs
oh, there’s no need to cry

Just think of me,
And I’ll be there

Enjoy your TLO’s! :-D
IT’S ALL GOOD!

FAMILY AFFAIR

When you live a metaphysical life, it makes things a whole lot more interesting! We are NOT limited to religious dogma but open to all that the Universe offers on this dimension as well as other dimensions! I have to say it’s pretty darn cool because family that have moved on can still be a part of your every day life. All you have to do is be open to the endless possibilities! :-D

Martin and I usually spend Thursdays together. It’s his only full day off so we enjoy it by going out shopping and just hanging out together. Last Thursday I posted on my Face Book page that Andrew would be joining us out and adding laughter to our day like he usually does. Little did I know just how much laughter he would be adding!

Martin and I went to the mall to do a bit of shopping and boy does that feel good to do that again! Well, I can’t go to the mall and not go to Cosimos Italian restaurant! They have a great happy hour, great food, and a great bartender! SO after our wee bit of shopping that we had a lot of fun doing, we stop off at Cosimos. I didn’t think the fun could get any better, but yet it did!

As we were sitting at the bar chatting away, several transitioned family members show up. Martin’s cousin Kiern, who passed at 38yo 4 or 5 yrs ago, flies by on a Quidage broom, and says, “Well, that’s something you don’t see everyday, a Jordan sitting at the bar drinking water! Off to Quidage!” And off he flew on his Quidage broom! OMG! we LOAO because he was soooo right! A Jordan (Martin) only drinking water at a bar?? Unheard of! LOL But Kiern and Quidage?? Freakin hilarious! Maybe he flew on a Quidge broom because he knew we were Potter fans. Isn't he sweet. TLO's love to show you what they can do now being in the other side, well, our relatives love to anyway.

As we were sitting there, a song came on that I haven’t heard on a radio in probably 8 years! A song that our Uncle Christy sent me to give to his family after he passed, “I’ll Be There” by the Escape Club. It’s a beautiful song about what someone who crossed would say to their loved ones still here. SO we knew Christy was there with us too. That song is his calling card. It brought tears to my eyes because I remember the moment I knew he was sending me the song, and how much it meant to his family. The only time I have ever heard the song was when I was driving to the airport to pick up his daughter Christine from the airport, or when she and I were together at the beach or in the car together. It was so wild to hear that song while out after all these years. Uncle Christy was letting us know he was right there with us. He was another clown too!

Andrew took Martin’s attention away with a red kayak on a car that drove by. (you remember the whole red kayak story, right?) Martin saw it in the mirror at Cosimos. Then Andrew shows Martin a big ole sneaker on a car. Martin coulda sworn he saw it drive by too but because he saw how Andrew was acting, he knew that Andrew was just messing with him, yet he continued to look for a car with a big ole sneaker on it…just in case! LMAO! Geez he is soo easy and Andrew knows it AND takes advantage of it every chance he gets!

Martin and I had such a blast laughing our asses off with our family members on the Other Side that day! SO much so, people must’ve thought we were drunk because we were having so much fun! We were high five-ing each other and just having a blast as our transitioned loved ones spent the day with us out and about. I just love living the metaphysical life, it makes being on this dense dimension so much easier to deal with, knowing there is so much more than just here. So much more to look forward to when I get to leave here.

Having one day off with Martin where we don’t have to do anything but what we want and being able to afford what we want finally, well, it’s just AWESOME!

IT’S ALL GOOD!
