Amazing Book for ALL Pet Parents: Lily and the Octopus by Steven Rowley

   A friend recommended that we read "Lily and the Octopus" by Steven Rowley and I have to say it THE best book about a pet parent and his dog, named Lily, which in this case happens to be a Dachshund (like 3 of  our kids). 

  The story is all about a single dog dad who one day sees a tumor growing over his 12 year old Dachshund's eye and refuses to acknowledge the word, so he calls in an Octopus. The book is delightful, and really shows how a dog dad should be- he and Lily have movie nights, board game nights (he plays for her), and a night to talk about guys. The book is so fun, and so moving as the dog dad goes through coping with the ultimate outcome, but it's a book about the special bond between a dog parent and his dog-kid.
   It's also very helpful for anyone facing making that choice to let their beloved fur-kid pass out of pain. 
  ALL pet parents should read it!
5 of 5 stars!  (It was also a National Bestseller).
  ***THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE NOVELS**
  BTW- I find it appropriate that I'm posting a blog about a book I read today, which would have been my dad's 90th birthday, since he inspired me to read a lot!   - Rob

Tarot Tuesday: Five of Swords

My friend Joy Andreasen of "Whispers of Joy" provides Tarot readings and here's her Tarot Tuesday:

Joy Says, "With election day being today, there are a lot of ruffled feathers as people choose sides. No matter what your political opinions, remember we are all brothers and sisters. Yes, vote. Stand up for what you believe, but allow others the same courtesy. Be kind to all." 

THE CARD: The Five of Swords card depicts a young man who has a very convenient look of contempt on his face. He is looking at the enemies that he has managed to conquer. There are five swords that he possesses – which he has taken from the other combatants who are in the card. The two other figures are walking away from him in a slow manner with a sense of loss and sadness. Above them, the sky is tumultuous and cloudy, which indicates that not everything is well, despite the fact that the battle is already over.

 BIOGRAPHY Joy Andreasen is an author, shamanic practitioner, psychic medium, spiritual consultant, Reiki Master Teacher and wedding officiant. She has been giving messages from Spirit for almost twenty years. She teaches spiritual development and shamanic classes in Winchester and Herndon Virginia which are always highly acclaimed.

In the News from the U.K.: M6 CRASH HORROR: Motorway fatalities 'due to ghosts of Roman soldiers'

A psychic has blamed ghosts for traffic accidents on  M6   (Image: GETTY IMAG
Here's an article from the United Kingdom about one area along a major highway that  suffers from a lot of crashes and a psychic says it's because of ancient ghosts...


M6 CRASH HORROR: Motorway fatalities 'due to ghosts of Roman soldiers'
AN ACCIDENT-PRONE stretch of the M6 in Cheshire sees more crashes than other sections of the road because it is haunted by ghosts of Roman soldiers, a psychic has claimed.
By Harvey Gavin PUBLISHED: 09:50, Mon, Sep 24, 2018 

A series of strange phenomena have been reported by motorists between junction 16 and 19, including phantom lorries, spectral hitchhikers and sightings of legionnaires.
 
Mike Brooker says the disturbance caused by a £250million upgrade project could be to blame. He said a Roman burial ground in the area of the roadworks may have awoken 2,000-year-old spirits which now haunt motorists and cause crashes.

The 53-year-old, from Northwich, has dubbed the area ‘Cheshire’s Bermuda Triangle’ because of the relatively high number of accidents on the “treacherous” stretch of road. He told ChesireLive: “I personally know people who have lost their lives and families who have been affected by accidents on this stretch of motorway. “I am leaning towards the theory that it can be connected to Saxon involvement. “There are reports of a Roman burial ground and that there was an historic clash between Scottish and English armies. There are so many variables and possibilities.

“For decades now, the amount of accidents on the M6 motorway between junctions 17 and 19 is completely unprecedented and, statistically, this is without doubt one of the worst ‘accident black-spots’ on any motorway network in the UK.”

Highways England is upgrading a 20-mile stretch of the M6 which will allow the authority to adjust speed limits in real-time in an effort to ease congestion and make the road safer. The ‘SMART motorway’ works include emergency areas at J18/19, 70 CCTV camera and 258 new electronic signs.

But Mr Brooker warned accidents in the area will continue because the reason behind the accidents is a supernatural one and plans to investigate to uncover the cause. Roman soldiers Mike Brooker says the ghosts of Roman soldiers could be causing crashes between J16 and J19 He said: “There appear to be two principal answers that come up, one is that the motorway was built on a Roman burial site and the other, is that it was the site of the slaughter of a number of the Scottish army dating back over 200 years.

 “There is no clear evidence either way to support or substantiate these claims but what is clear is that something is very wrong to cause so many accidents on what is to all intents and purposes and fairly straight stretch of road.

 “I ‘personally’ believe there is something supernatural that has attached itself to this particular stretch of motorway… when ‘science’ holds its hands up and is at a complete loss to explain this plethora of accidents/incidents between junctions 17 and 19 of the M6; there is perhaps an alternate explanation.”

Photos and Experiences at Strathmore Mansion's Halloween Tea

A Haunted Tea at the Strathmore Mansion
Thanks to all who came out to support the Strathmore Mansion at their Haunted Halloween Tea on Wednesday Oct. 31.  
   I made a return Halloween appearance and this year I talked about my newest book "Ghosts of England: On a Medium's Vacation." 
  I provided a few highlights from chapters on Hampton Court Palace, Whitehall Palace, our haunted room in a castle Bed and Breakfast, and more.  
  When I announced that I had time for one more story several people asked for the ghost dog story.
     There were a lot of great questions and people seemed really engaged. Of course, since the ghosts were from different periods in England's history,and the places I encountered the ghosts ranged from churches to palaces to pubs and homes, there was a lot to cover.

  You can read about them in my book, though- and learn history while enjoying my own personal ghostly encounters!
 The Strathmore Mansion is located on Tuckerman Lane, Bethesda, Md.
