Well, work is over for me for another week - paid work that is! I just about manage to work 8 whole hours a week and sadly that leaves me feeling worn out at best, ill at worst. The heat is not good for me either, my joints are on fire atm and my fingers have turned into big fat sausages!! I sooo wish I could be one of those people who manage to stay upbeat despite having an illness. I find it totally wearing and in the end it gets me down, no matter how hard I try to stay positive. I hate it. By four o'clock most days I am done for, and this means going out on an evening is a real trial and I avoid it if at all possible.
Last year my daughter and I started going to The Freespirit Awareness Centre every other Tuesday to see the visiting medium. It starts off with a prayer or reading, then a song, then the medium and then closes with another prayer. Its usually a fun evening and the medium who runs it is a lovely lady who has freely given us advice as Bex appears to be quite sensitive. My Mums sister could see spirit, and this appears to be the case for both Bex and myself. We have both had a lot of unexplainable experiences. I do believe in the paranormal, but I always have the motto "look for the rational first, and if you can't find an explanation then it is more than likely paranormal" . My eldest son studied psychology at university and when I suddenly announced that I could smell the seaside (we were in the lounge) he pronounced his verdict that I had the first signs of schizophrenia - thanks son! We have lots of conversations about the world of spirit, and he came with us on a visit to The Ram Inn at Wotton-under-Edge, supposedly the most haunted inn in Britain. I have to say that the chap who runs it is more scary than its reputation! Nothing made an appearance for us, but a friend took my youngest son around after the main tour and Rich mentioned that the barn was very misty. He hadn't been present when the historical talk was being given because I didn't want him frightened, so he didn't know that the barn had caught fire and half burned down at one time. Interesting. Neither my friends, the husband being a seasoned investigator, or ourselves had any experiences or feelings at all. Maybe it would have been different at night, but there is no reason in my mind why it should have been, apart from the fear of the dark or of falling down the unsafe staircase!
Anyway, I haven't managed to go to the Centre yet this year, having not been too well. I did do an animal communication workshop run by Bernie, which I enjoyed hugely, and was gratified to find that the things I picked up were correct.
Need to stop for a mo, its the first day back at school tomorrow and need to sort out the childrens "things".
