25 things about me
I was going to try for 50, but couldn't think of that many.

Details on 10, please.
It sounds silly. But I'm 100% sure of it. I saw my dog. I was in grade 9. It was about 4 months after she died, on a sunny afternoon. I was walking out from around the back of our house on my way to the barn. I saw her cross the lawn in front of me and go around the front of the house. I was so sure that despite logic, I ran and called for her. She was gone of course, but I felt warm and happy.
I also felt my God mother when she died. I had no idea she was near death. I was in university and honestly didn't think of her that often. But suddenly, at the top of the stairs I stopped and felt a chill or something and thought, aunt Gert has died. A minute later the phone rang and it was Mom with the news. All I could say was I know.
Silly, weird, whatever, but Scouts honor true.
Scout's honour never lies.
I loved reading these, I think I'll do the same today! xox buddy, hope to see you soon.
PS - You always impress me!
Did you once have a boyfriend named Mike?
Interesting list.
Why do you wish you hadn't quit ballet?
Are there other things you wish you had or hadn't done?
I love to dance. I was good at it. I wish I had stuck with it and learned how. I quit because the class was too slow and boring. I didn't know the next year would have been better. A decision I kind of wish my mom hadn't allowed since I was so young.
