A Floodline Feather
For any of you who have followed my posts describing my feather stories, you’ll know my late husband has left me some remarkable signs using big, white feathers sticking up like arrows shot into the ground at meaningful places and at meaingful times.

Signs on Our Evacuation “Vacation”
Those of us who lived in dread of the approaching Hurricane Milton needed to get out of town, or, better yet, get out of state due to those historic, last minute “wobbles.” The numbers were scary (gusts of up to 200 mph!) with a bullseye right on us. So, because some of us were required…

Exploding Gardenia Blooms
I have never seen a gardenia bush produce such an explosion of so many blossoms all at once. That is my favorite flower fragrance of all. I fell in love with it when my late husband and I went to Hawaii for our long-awaited honeymoon, 30 years after we were married. It was also his…

Happy Birthday Wishes
We enjoy wishing people a happy birthday on the day they were born, but people aren’t sure if they should acknowledge that day once a person passes away. Some have said they didn’t want me to think they’ve forgotten about my late husband. Others have said they didn’t want to bring it up and remind…

Zoomed in to Book Club
Last night I joined a book club discussion about my book, You Don’t Know Jack!; How Antics from My Late Husband’s Spirit Give Undeniable Evidence of Afterlife. I was so excited to share information about the book’s inspiration, the writing process, the message of the book, the publishing process, and all that has happened since.…
