Well, I have received news that my sister died on Sunday, she was having some back surgery and was recovering then she was gone.
I am not able to fly over to the States due to the time element, in the US we get them buried in less than three days but over here in Britian it takes over a week and in one case a friend finally had their ceremony a month later.
I certainly had not expected it since she was only 48, quite young indeed, she was dealing with health issues but had a strong heart. We lost touch for quite a few years as families do when they are in different countries and getting on with their daily lives, we just forget to stop and make attempts to contact one another. But I wondered if we used it up in our youths, growing up we were always a tight family clan and we girls (four) did alot of running around and beinging in each others pockets maybe that was why we distanced ourselves as adults.
I also noticed things about death seem to be more prevelant, tv movies, books, news ( well news does always count they always focus on death) talk shows. Seems sometimes its always around you but only when your focus changes do you suddenly notice it. Like when we put the box ontop of the car suddenly we noticed every car had a box. Or as I like to think sometimes it is a sign.
So Claudia I regret not touching base with you but know that with your legacy of lovely children Eric, Alyssa, Courtney, the twins Michael & Christine and your granddaughter Eva
your spark will carry on. I thank you for being my sister as well .
Much love
Theresa

Back from beyond
Hello and welcome its nearly time to go on another challenging show, the fun never stops. I have been looking into some new venues and contacting the promoters this week. It's always a hit or miss situation to do a show and can I make the cost of the table. Some times the school breaks will seriously effect the numbers or in this case last Sunday Mother's Day which is strange in my thinking - to take mom out to an event she enjoy- but maybe people only to take their mom's out for a Sunday lunch over here and I did notice there were alot more cops on the road ticketing those frazzled family members. Quite a few in fact.
I got quite a few soul paintings done that were very interesting and connected well with the clients. They all had different styles in the images which I would have loved to have a copy of so now I need to bring the scanner or camera. Even the aura drawings are developing farther than the first ones. I did have an epitaph about energies, the more I can challenged myself to do my best and less concern about what others are getting up to then my energies won't be wasted. Now to put that into practice for our next show. Stay toon!

On the Road again
Today we are getting ready for a show, not a stage and screen type although sometimes it can feel like a comedy act but a Mind, Body and Spirit event. We travel all over England and Wales and over the years have met a lot of interesting wonderful people and also lets not forget the disturbing and irritating ones too. I am saying We not in the royal statement but with my husband and partner Keith, there is more about him on his site keith-speak.com
who works from an esoteric scientist type of guy. He amazes me with ideas and sees beyond sometimes the mundane crap of life. Where I get things really stuck in my craw like Space. Space is an interesting concept for me - what are the boundaries and layouts - I find when we go to shows there are markers or lines drawn out for our territory and it's always fascinating how people either stay within their markers scrupulously (never taking more than they bought) to those that suddenly you find their equipment, table, even themselves within your Space. Amazing that oblivious mindset which is me, me, me not aware of anyone else but me. Odd considering a supposedly Spiritual set of people

Being an Ohioian in Penmaenmawr
Well ,I have to say that even back in Ohio most people had trouble understanding me. I reverse words, numbers and dates so coming to a country that uses the day, month, years works for me. I have been working over here for about 8 plus years but people still think I sound like I just got off the boat from Ohio. I know you can't take a boat from Ohio but the British only know about New York, Las Vegas and Florida so when they ask where I am from ( I sound to their ears 'Canadian' which is fine with me I don't have land issues) they give me a blank look in their eyes so now I say around the Great Lakes -sounds more exotic then if they understand where that is then I say Ohio.

Hi everyone!
Thanks for dropping by, my name is Theresa but most people call me Terry. I now live in Wales but originate from Ohio. The transision from American English to British English, coupled with my own way of expressing myself led to the expression Terry Speak!
