I've been taking a mediumship class to learn how to connect with those that have crossed over. We practice by trying to connect with a friend or relative that's passed of someone in the class. That way the person can confirm whether we're getting correct information or not. It's pretty amazing how we get detailed information we have no way of knowing.
This evening I suggest people try to focus on Al. They know he was my beloved, but that's it. Several people saw a car accident, and a few other things that were right on. But these two things are the really important pieces: One person said Al was showing her a knight in shining armor. He protected me before and is still protecting me. She felt he wanted to propose. (Al's sister had told me she believed Al was going to propose to me.) Another person said Al says I'm still beautiful and he wanted to know if I received the coin he recently sent. I said no coins recently.
One Week Later
I went to the Renaissance Faire with a friend. As I'm walking around, I see a booth with copper and silver medallions. They all have different symbols and signs stamped on both sides. There's a book of hundreds of things you can have stamped on them as they'll custom stamp them for you right there. There were about 2-3 dozen copper medallions hanging in a row and I reached up and pulled one out at random. It was a knight in shining armor! Wow! Pretty amazing. I started to walk away, then thought I should look at the other side. I found it again and turned it over. On the back was a large, ornate "A"!!!! I don't see how anyone could say this is a coincidence. A week ago I'm told that Al says he's my knight in shining armor and he's sending me a coin. And now the medallion, that looks like a large coin, that I randomly pull out of dozens of them has a knight in shining armor on one side and an "A" on the other!
Yes, of course I bought it!!

Another coincidence?
March 18, 2009
I'm at work doing a mindless job. I'm thinking about things and for no reason in particular I think "who am I?" I hear Al's voice and in all his wit and humor he says, "You are a child of god." It was so funny the way he said it; I could totally hear his voice and get the intended joke. (We are (were) both not at all into religious dogma, but very spiritual, and we like to joke about ourselves and beliefs, keeping things light and fun.)
Of course I start questioning whether I really heard Al, or if I had made it up. I decided it was highly likely I had heard him because his voice was so clear, so unexpected, and it was so him.
About 5-10 minutes later my friend Jeanette calls. She HAD to tell me about something that had just happened. She used her speed dial (as usual) to call her friend Ann. A man answers so she asks for Ann. There's no Ann there (wrong number, but no way she could have mis-dialed since she used her pre-programmed speed dial). The guy who answered - his name is Al! What are the odds of:
a) her speed dial dialing a wrong number
b) the person at the end of the wrong number is named Al
c) I just had what I think is a communication from Al
All of these things happening pretty much simultaneously? It could happen, but pretty darn weird.

Concidences?
March 14, 2009
Al & I had several weird things in common: we're both left handed, we both had the same exact blue point Siamese cat that we adored; they could have been twins. Mine was male, his female. Tonight I found another thing in common.
I used to always wear a watch, but haven't for years. But for some reason, tonight I decided I should have a working watch in case I needed it. For what, I don't know, but I just did. So I went through my drawer and found the watch I used to wear all the time. It has a black leather strap and wide round face with a second hand and date. There was something very familiar about it, other than I used to wear it. I went to my cedar box where I keep my most precious things and pulled out Al's watch. The crystal was cracked and it didn't work because Al was wearing it when he was in the accident. But it looked just like my watch that I had bought years before meeting Al. I turned over my watch and engraved in the back: "Italian design" Al being full blooded Italian, it just struck me as a bit odd.

Tunes in My Head
March 13, 2009
Songs just seem to pop into my head from nowhere; songs I heard a long time ago and haven't thought of for years. I feel they're a message from Al, that he's somehow put them into my head. That happened today. The Michael Jackson song "Rockin' Robin" just popped into my head from nowhere. I remember it from my childhood. To me it was just another bubblegum pop tune, so I couldn't figure out what sort of message he was trying to send. So I did a search on the internet and found out that Rockin' Robin was a single. The song on the flip side: "Love is Here and Now You're Gone."

Meditation
November 20, 2008
I've been going to wonderful meditations recently. I find it brings me a sense of peace that's very profound and healing. Tonight, during the meditation I saw Al walk through the door. He walked to me and held me. I felt his arms around me. I could feel our hearts connect. I suppose this could all be in my imagination, but it felt so very real.

Nov 12, 2008 Journal Posting
It's been 8 months since Al passed, and I'm still feeling extreme grief. Sometimes the grief lifts, and I am able to laugh and feel joy. Then I feel guilt, that I'm betraying him for not grieving. But I realize I need to love myself. And loving myself is doing things that bring me joy, peace, happiness and love. Loving myself is not sitting in a corner grieving. It's important to not only love those around me, but myself as well; to find compassion and love for myself. I think those that are on the other side would want us here to continue to live, to feel joy and to laugh. Not sit in a corner and grieve.

Lights On (or off?)
October 29, 2008:
Tonight I decided to see if my floor lamp, that has not been working the past several weeks, would turn on. I flip on the switch and there was light! Cool. This hasn't happened for some time. The light stays on. Even better! About 30 minutes later it turns off. Oh well. About 5 minutes later it turns back on. ?? Another 5 minutes later it turns off. WTF? Faulty wiring, I suppose?
But then I got the bright idea (pun intended, sorry!) to ask Al if he was messing with the light. So I asked him if he would turn it back on. It immediately flickered on and off. I asked a second time, and again it immediately flickered on and off. I waited several moments and asked again. Same thing - flickers on and off at the same moment I ask. I'm sitting across the room from the light, no cats, moths, or breeze anywhere near the lamp. Concidence? Possibly. But weird it flickered exactly when I asked, and only when I asked.

It's a Roller Coaster
October 21, 2008
My close friend Lora came over for a bit. Somehow the conversation came around to Magic Mountain (which is one of my favorite amusement parks). I told her Al couldn't go because of his heart condition, but felt that not going to Magic Mountain was an extremely minor concession compared to having him in my life.
As we were talking, I had my computer playing tunes via Pandora.com. Right as I said I didn't mind not going to Magic Mountain, the Beatles "She's Got a Ticket to Ride" started playing. Weird! Even stranger is that I had de-selected Beatles in my music choices on Pandora.

Channel Surfing
October 20, 2008
Hoo Boy! I'm watching TV - channel 13. Get up to put on some soup. As I come back into the living room, the TV starts changing channels!!! First to channel 1 (which is not a channel with anything on it), then stops at channel 4; where it's showing a commercial with a bride and groom.
Besides the fact that the remote cannot change channels unless the DVD is on, which it was not, the remote was on the table, sitting by itself.
