The Mini Grimoire - Pockets 

I was always extremely skeptical of ghosts, spirits & anything to do with the paranormal... UNTIL THAT NIGHT!!!! I lived in New Albany, Indiana with my Husband. We lived in a 3rd Floor Apartment in a Complex known as "The Tree Tops" that overlooked the town of Louisville, Kentucky. I'd been waking up EVERY NIGHT at the same exact time... Something like 2:44AM & It'd been going on for several months! One night I saw the blinds to our balcony move in like a wave motion,but at the time ai immediately thought that the wind blew. (It was October & we were at the base of Floyd's Knobs so it was freezing out! LOL) But I'll NEVER forget the last night of October!!! I'd laid my head on my husband's chest & the right side of my face was against him. I woke up... & She was hovering just above me. I closed my eyes; Took a deep breath & tried to scream... AND NOTHING CAME OUT! (*This was the FIRST AND ONLY time I've ever been too scared to scream!!!!) Evidently my body tensed up or something because next I heard my husband's voice. He said, "It's ok. It's ok. Shhh.... Ok, She's gone. Erica, she's gone; She went through the wall." IDK how long it took me to finally open my eyes, but I made him get up & turn on the light. My entire left side; Especially the left side of my face was ICE COLD! The other side of my face (that was against his chest) Literally felt like it was Hot, Like "On Fire Hot;" Compared to the other side! I was having a bit of a panick attack so when he tried talking to me, I yelled at him & told him to shut-up! We got up, got dressed, got in the car & drove around until daylight. We stopped by Dairy Queen for Breakfast at 5AM. We went inside, ate & then I said, Ok. Tell me exactly what you saw. (Of course I did NOT REALLY want to hear what he had to say! Had ge not seen the exact thing I saw; Then I would've easily been able to "Chalk it up" to being a Dream (AKA; One Hella Nightmare! LOL)He told me that he'd actually been awake a lot longer than I had; That he'd been watching her... Watch me! He said that she floated over to me & was just looking at me. He said he felt me Grip him tighter & heard me gasp for air; At the same time that the look in her face changed. I say "Her" but it was more if a light; Not really a shape at all, but I somehow knew it was a young woman & she was BEAUTIFUL! As soon as I opened my eyes, It was almost as if I scared her as much as she scared me! My Husband said as soon as I tightened my grip around him, she floated forward, through the wall. The head of our bed was up against a wall. My Husband & I talked & I tried coming up with every excuse possible! Could I've been headlights of a car that pulled in? No, We're in the 3rd floor! I literally thought I was going insane! I was so close to going to try to check myself into the Psych Ward of the Hospital! But then I called my Nana. She told me I needed to calm down. She then pereceed to tell me about some of her previous experiences. I talked to my Mom a bit later in the morning & the 1 st thing she said was that it was probably my Great Grandma! I truly believe my Mom was right! My Great Grandmother passed away before I started Elementary School. I still remember her though. I remember going to see her. Everyone always talked about how much she just loved, adored & doubted in me! This was at least 25-years ago & know what I know now; I'm almost certain that it was her; Just coming to check in on me. I've since had many more experiences, but nothing like that! So... My response is... Yes, YES & YESSS!!! LOL! ~🙏💙🙏~

I love listening to you talk! I have to say I'm a huge Ghost Adventures fan, but I like the other ones you mentioned. Have you ever seen "The Curse of Oak Island"? I think it's kinda sad we live in a society where no one bats an eye at telling you they believe in the Bible, but turn and laugh that one believes in Ghosts. And I'm not knocking anyones religion or spirituality, I'm just saying, I've read the bible and it's got some pretty crazy stuff in it as far as "other-worldly" phenomenon! Unless you're dealing with Catholics, they believe strongly in ghosts. I find it all so fascinating, have you ever watched "Ancient Aliens"? My mom & I used to watch that show(It was 10 years in April I lost my mom to Breast cancer 🎀 😢), I still enjoy it. My mom also taught me to read Tarot cards. I really love that I can put your channel on in the background while I work on my stuff -which doesn't always fit the typical "norm" in the JJ world(I call my stuff art journals, but I also draw & paint in them, and write). I love your work and you give off a very calming vibe, ❤.

Always fun watching you create. 😊

We have a Bigfoot in the hills. Jeff Meldrum from Idaho State University is here. So the Bigfoot team comes here once a year.

Ooh, this is going to be gorgeous as well! I love the fabric cover and such pretty papers inside 😍😍

I think we have the spirit of the lady who built our house living with us. We are remodeling the downstairs and I get a nudge now and again from her.

What is that paper with the blue n golds that you used on the envelopes?

Boy this book was pretty to start with but you’ve taken it way beyond!

What a fabulous mini grimoire! I really enjoyed hearing your stories. I’ve always believed in ghosts or spirits. I think most people have pushed those abilities or senses so far down that we can’t tap into them anymore. Me included sadly. I do know that I had two major changes in my life. One was around a series of dreams of packs of dogs attacking for about 20 years (horribly graphic ). Then I had a monumental dream that I stopped all the dogs (yes violently). I became substantially stronger after that, and, of course, have learned to love dogs. Also, I had a soul retrieval in which I entered mama bears cave with her cubs. It was peaceful. I didn’t understand or believe it, because the doctors told me I could never have kids. Well, I had a little miracle baby. She’s grown now. But like you, I choose a name that wasn’t popular at the time at all. But now you get an Ella and an Emma in the same family! 😂. ❤Tamara
