Yeah it is a story we will remember for the rest of our lives. Our son is 23 now, he was only about 2-3 years old at the time of the event. I've heard a number of stories about children being very sensitive to spirits, more so than adults.

I’m saying that Oct 31 2024 will be 17 years since my cat Ginetta passed away on my lap in my bed.
She couldn’t/didn’t have the strength to climb up onto my for the last couple of years but that night she did it. I was watching some TV and she came up.
Soon after, (she was laying on my chest) I felt and heard her breath get slower and slower and finally not to breathe at all.
I broke down like a baby that night.

I’m announcing that after 17 years, I’m looking to get a pet. It will most likely be a dog so that they can have free run of the property I’m buying.

How about some free range chickens, and some goats, that is what I would have if I had some extra property to spare. Dogs and cats too.

I’m actually thinking about getting some goats to help the cleared land clear of grass and such. Just need
to build a shelter/pen for them, so that will be a few months after we close on the property.
I’m also considering allowing any falconers access to the land to control rodents, snakes etc.

I'm suggesting alapacas and a guard llama.

I’m noting that I was out walking today and I saw a flock of seagulls.



So I ran, ran so far away.
