1. Tell us about your superstitions. Do you have any? Do you "x out" black cats on the windshield of your car, avoid cracks in the sidewalk or practice other rituals that make you feel safer?
Don't have any? Come on now! Make up some....
x-nay on the black cats and cracks in the sidewalk-but i will say that i believe in some of the pregnancy superstitions such as "marking the baby" (by seeing something that frightens you while you are pregnant)
or wrapping the cord around the baby's neck, and feeding your cravings. i believe this because it has actually happened to me with both of my children
2. Has anything paranormal ever happened to you that you can write about? the only thing that comes to mind is a dream i had about my mother after she passed away. i had put the house up for sale and moved about 50 miles away. i had been in my apartment for about 3 weeks when i had this dream. in the dream, it was during the day,, and heard someone knock at the door. i had a little hallway going to the door, and as i was going to answer it, the door opened, and it was my mother-she had her purse in her hand, and her maroon windbreaker over her left arm, just like she always did, and when i saw her, i started crying. she said what on earth is the matter? why are you crying?" i said "because i know that you can't stay"
3. Have you ever had a near-death experience?
the closet thing was when i had open-heart surgery in 1993-not an out of body experience though
4. Pheromones...aka "love fireworks" (I think I remember those)...are a force to be reckoned with. Do you believe that two people can have an uncontrollable chemical reaction to each other? How do you know this to be true?yes, because it has happened to me more than once!!
5. Do you believe that modern day witches can put spells on people?
6. ESP! What do those letters stand for in your life?
8. Tell us about a time you "knew" something was going to happened before it did. Are you one of those intuitive types or do you know someone who is ? Do tell.
9. I'm a tad gifted in the dream department. Really. Sometimes my dreams are prophetic and come true. It can be a blessing and a curse. Has this ever happened to you? If not, would you like to have this gift? (Be careful what you wish for. It can be freaky at times.)
well, i've already told you about my biggie, but yes, sometimes i have dreams that come true, and yes, it can be freaky!

she said "well, i wanted to see your apartment, and the furniture that don (her brother that was the executor of the estate) had bought you". so we went on into the living room and sat down, she on the couch and me in the massage chair that i had bought. she looked around at everything, and asked me if i was happy in sevierville, and if i liked my apartment. how was jonah doing in his new school, and if samantha was doing okay.
mother passed away on thursday, and the following week samantha found out that she was pregnant. (mother would have absolutely sh** as samantha wasn't married and living with bobby-before she died mother had told me if samantha got pregnant that she wasnt going to come bringing it in her OR me.)
now, when i got pregnant with samantha 23 years ago, mother had a fit-it was as if she really believed that the only reason i was out whoring around was to embarrass her-she'd told me that if i ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT LIVE without sex, that she'd take me to get on birth-control-people were going to look at her and say "well, what did you expect-look at her mother" because mom was the first one divorced in the family waaayyyy back around 1966 or so. she said some VERY ugly things to me and never apologized. i had to let it go because i knew it would never happen.
but in the dream, mother knew about samantha, even though it was unspoken between us, she knew, and thats why she asked about her. she asked me if i was helping her and supporting her, and when i said yes, she said that was good, that it was important for me to support her.
she looked around at everything and said it was really nice, and that she had just come by to check on me, to make sure that i was happy in my apartment and in sevierville. she didn't get up and leave, or fade from view or anything like that-i just woke up. and felt her get up off my bed.

If so, who would you like to hoodoo and why?
i dont know for sure, but i'd have to say yes. if i could do something like that and it not come back on me, when i was going through my second divorce (i grew my hair out for a man that left me for a woman with hair shorter than his!) it would have been the "other woman", and during my last divorce, it would've been my ex just because of the hell he put us through. BUT, if i did something like that, i'd be afraid that it would return to me two-fold, so i leave all that to God.6. ESP! What do those letters stand for in your life?
my mother had a gift-i think she was clairavoyant-so when i think of the paranormal, i think of the things that she experienced and told me about. she "knew" things that always seemed to come to pass. whenever we'd hear about someone on tv going missing, she could tell me whether they would be found alive or not-in particular, she knew that Natalie Holloway's body would never be found-that joran van der sloot was the guilty party, and that she was in the water. she also would see the dead from time to time. she could also read cards.
7. Do you ever hear strange noises in your house?
7. Do you ever hear strange noises in your house?
If so, what do they sound like?
no. i don't have that gift.

after i moved to sevierville, i thought it would be nice to find someone to date, but just like before, i heard the words "just wait on wiseowl" (that's my husbands cherokee name). i knew that we would find each other again and that we would get married-and i hadn't talked to him in about 2 years!!
and i knew my daughter was pregnant before i bought the pregnancy test9. I'm a tad gifted in the dream department. Really. Sometimes my dreams are prophetic and come true.
