Back in Las Vegas, unable to sleep. Not 100% sure what the issue is, but hey, party. It was a good weekend in Utah, spent the time with family. We had a party for all the September birthdays which was awesome, that was over at the Higbee Circus grounds (Come one, come all, the stage is set, the clownshoes are in and our master of ceremonies is about to begin!).
Yesterday was also the anniversary of my nuptialsto Melanie. I love you dear. Happy fifth, here is to five more.
I have been dreaming of my grandmother (great, great?) and her house that my parents and I lived in as caretaker when I was a child. I have been having dreams which frankly, freak me out a bit. These dreams are revealing and at the same time, make the hair on the back of my neck sneak up a bit remembering right now.
A lof of what I felt in that house was written off to childhood fantasy and the like, but I tell you, in all honesty I have seen things and done things and have heard things since, that make me know that there was some entitiy in that house (more than one). To this day, I am even a little nervous driving by it.
Here is a good example of a positive from there; I remember with vivid detail making small boat out of wood and leaves and floating it in the deep ditch in front of the property. I remember more than once doing this and also playing above the garage. What I remember is that I had a babysitter who was kind and pretty. She had long dark hair and was about 16. Her name was Sissy, she always seemed to be there when I was a little sad or scared. This person does not exist. I have asked my mother, and others, several times about my sitter names Sissy. They have no idea who I am talking about.
OK, here it gets intersting, and my ex wife can vouch for this part. When Alex was about 4-5(same age as I was in this house), Valarie or I would catch him talking to someone in his room, and laughing and such. We asked him once and he said he was talking to his friemd, Sissy. Sissy had long dark hair and was pretty like mommy. The room was empty save Alex.
OK, how freaky is that? This is not me being goofy for once, but it is something that has always intrigued me. Do we have a guardian angel in our midst named Sissy? I am nervous to turn awound from my monitor right now, to see her standing there.
Don't even get me started about Sue and Glen's hosue at 3088 Robinwood Drive, right Song? The downstiars freaking bathroom?
OK, I need to go drink some tea, go to bed. Please forgive me my jaunt down scary lane, maybe it is my mind wrapping around my own mortality, or maybe getting ready for the season. Who knows.
I loved visiting everyone this week, especially you, boyos! See you all soon!

I am with you on the Grandma's house. I alway felt like it was some type of passage for those who had gone ahead. I would like to hear about Sue and Glens house. I did not know they had stuff.
ReplyDeleteI always thought there were vibes in the room above the garage. I always felt comfortable there with all the old stuff. Grandma (she was your great-grandmother)had stored there that we played with, and later, when you were little, we scavaged from for furniture for our apartments! You know I liked Grandma's kitchen downstairs but the rest of the basement always scared me silly to be in alone. It was definitely haunted. I always ran up the stairs if I had to go get something from there and I NEVER remember ever ever sleeping in the basement when I stayed with Grandma. I always slept in my Mom's old room or in with Grandma if I got scared. Weird, I haven't thought of that in a long time. We all should compare notes. The "friend" hanging out with both you and Alex is both comforting and creepy. Hmmm. It was fun seeing you this weekend and your Boyos. AJ
ReplyDeleteI can't remember the basement bathroom? I know as soon as you say it I will, what was the deal there?
ReplyDeleteI didn't like the basement either at Grandmas. But I don't remember being down there a lot. I remember the attic, the swing set, the drive way, the kitchen and the front porch (your mom gave me my first puff on a cigarette!!)
I totally think we have gaurdian angels. That is cool you have seen yours. I wonder how she is related or connected to you? Funny.
Maybe you're not sleeping because you have something undone. . .maybe something like you haven't come over yet? Ha, ha!! Take a tylenol pm!
