Orbs of my late mom?

On few occasions, I had felt a very cold freezing “hand” stroked my forehead whenever I felt sad. It made me felt better and calm and I knew it was my late mom’s soul.

Unfortunately I did not inherit the gift of dream like my late mom had. In my 41 years of living, I do not recall having many dreams. My sisters on the other hand are blessed with this gift. There was that time when there was a rotten fish guts smell at home. The smell was unbearable and lasted several days. I asked my sister, Nancy whether she smelled it too. She said no; but told me that she’d a dream about being with my late mom at a feast. She described that there were many ‘people’ there and that there were lots of food served on a long table but when she looked closer, all the food were of fish dish. Fortunately she woke up before taking a bite of those food. I knew then that that was the source of the smell in the house. Fish was my late mom’s favourite food. Growing up, I’ve enjoyed tagging along going on many fishing trips with her.

And then there was this really weird dream my other sister, Marina told me. She dreamt that my late mom came to visit her and her children. She was telling my sister that she’s fine except for a time when the maggots were disturbing her. “But they’ve moved away now,” she told her, “to that goat corpse”. With that she pointed to a white carcass with no skin not far away from her according to my sister. When it was time to go, she vanished through a pillow that was laying on the floor of her bedroom. My sister felt so disturbed by that dream that she and I went back to our village to visit my mom’s grave on 2nd October 2010.

Here are pictures that I believe to be Orbs of my late mom. Lord, father may you grant her peace. Amen.

Update: My eldest brother and his family came for a visit at my place on 31 December 2010. During our conversations, he told me that he'd been visited by my late mom's spirit in his dream. He said that my late mom was talking to him but she was not facing him directly. He could only see her side. Unfortunately, my brother couldn't comprehend or make out what my late mom was saying to him. He said that she was enveloped in a strange bluish bright light. Very strange indeed.

One of those days... going crazy with sewing

These past few days, I have suddenly immersed myself surfing sewing related websites particularly netizens’ blogs. Fantastic! So many ladies sewing out there somewhere and it is wonderful that they are sharing their wonderful work with everyone. Alviana’s site in particular got me thinking back to all the garments that I have sewn for people in the past. There were so many and I didn’t keep a record on them. Thank goodness for Blog (thank you, thank you whoever you are). Now I can post all my sewing work and stuffs from now onwards.

Here’s my first bridesmaid dresses. Vera, the bride chose the colour which is light blue. I was not really thrilled with the colour choice because it was quite pale but I did try to make them pretty by adding subtle bling. Mind you the head of the church was quite an orthodox priest so everything has to be proper.

Okay, I’m off to continue with my iron lady mental brainxercise i.e. my thoughts running here and there without anything getting done. ~ o_O ..... ^_^ heee..
