August 16, 2010: Yes, I'm jumping ahead to Al's latest "sign" to me. It's crazy! If anyone has any logical explanations, let me know.
A few days ago I was having a discussion with a friend, saying it's been almost 2-1/2 years since Al passed, and I think he's gone on, as what I've read say the dead do. Rather than being constantly by your side, they only come around when you need them. After that conversation, I put a thought out there to Al that if he is still around me, just give me a sign.
Later that same day, I was confirming a new friend on FB. As I was looking at her profile, a photo of Al's head pops up in the advertising column on the right. It was just his head with a huge grin on his face, and looked like it had been cropped from a photo. I sat staring at it, at first not believing what I was seeing. How the heck did his photo get into the advertisements? It didn't go away, he just sat there smiling at me. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the photo, and it took me to MY photo album, displaying the photo of Al & I sitting together at our favorite pub in Van Nuys, Ireland's 32. We were sitting side-by-side, shoulders and hips pushing into each each. He had his hand on my head and was pulling my head to his, both of us sporting a huge grin.
Crazy! I guess he's still around more than I think. Love you, sweetie.
