Your new schedule...

doesn't sound like one that will give you anytime to just be you and do anything for yourself.  I hope you don't wear yourself down to a frazzle.

Your life is always so full! Too bad you're going to missing sleep!

That is great you all had a Thanksgiving celebration. I'm for any celebration that involves food.

Good Morning

I loved your post.  I think Little Flea is amazing!  I think it's so cool when she shares something she knows with you.  Good Luck with arranging your work hours around everything you want to do.  I'm glad you are finished with your training.  I love watching my Cleveland Browns so I know how you feel.  Are your games on late in the evening or at different times?  My son made two turkeys for Thanksgiving and we all enjoyed our Thanksgiving dinner but I still made a turkey for here so everyone would have leftovers for the long weekend.  It worked out really nicely.  I wish you a wonderful day!  I hope your electricity has been staying on.  Keep warm on these cold days.  It's freezing here with lots of snow.

I was fascinated by your post. First of all, it was good to read you again and I'm glad that you are finished with your training for your promotion. For me during the years that I worked outside the home, it was always sleep that I chose to give up over anything else.

Little Flea is quite exceptional and what a gift you have in her! There are things both of my girls do and say that are identical to one or the other of my parents words or actions, and there is no way they could have known that, which is not to say that little Flea has not been here before. Once when I was little and my mom was discussing Bridie Murphy with a friend, Big Ears here piped up that I could remember things from "before." Mama got this panicked look on her face and told me not to say that! I asked her why not and she told me that meant "they" would come for me. (She was of some of the old beliefs, I think.) But did it work? Not sure. So glad you're back.

I believe there is some genetic memory passed down from generation to generation, something your elders might have experienced before your Little Flea was even conceived. Had you not kept mementos, she might not have the reminders.

We were sure my first Grandson had been here before. We call that an ' Old soul." He knew things nobody could have mentioned. Then as he grew up it left him. I myself was terrified I would be hung again. The relief when hanging was stopped in Australia when I was about seven. I don't get those feelings since i grew up.

Flea

I don't see why not, I have seen a woman the image of her mother with no possibility of

unless it was her mother's father. It could be one of those flukes of nature. 

I was sorry that you did not make after all the hard work. Good luck with the new.🌺
