Premonition or Coincidence??

I'm one of those people who can usually recall dreams.  Not always and not all of them, but more than a lot of people I know.  One dream in particular stands out.  It was while a very dear friend was terminally ill.

"J" was a very close friend who I had worked for from 1988 to 2002.  He had a great deal of influence on me during that time and we had a strong bond, almost like father/daughter.  I was living more then 3 hours from my folks at the time and "J" was like having a parent away from home.

When "J" become ill, I was devastated.  I knew he was terminal so I took the time to send him a card with a very personal message while he was still able to comprehend the words.  I later heard from a mutual friend "J" had been very touched and moved by the card.  I had also been told by that mutual friend  "J" had about 6 months left.

Fast forward 2 months and I'm at home 4 hours away from "J".   I was walking in front of our fireplace when I noticed a very strong scent of Old Spice.  It was just me and my daughter at home and for the record, my husband doesn't wear any cologne or scented products.  This was very strange and so strong, I acknowledged it out loud.


Later that same night, I dreamed our mutual friend telephoned to tell me "J" had passed away.  It was one of those dreams that is very clear when you wake up the next morning.

I was on pins and needles all the next morning waiting for that dreaded phone call.........and it came at 10:00 am.  Just as in the dream, I was told "J" had passed away the previous day.

That's when it hit me, the Old Spice I had noted the day before was the same cologne "J" used to wear at work!

 Premonition or coincidence????  You tell me.

Two Super SavvyCents Wallets to GIVEAWAY (ENDED)

Winners are Kim O and Katie C


A year ago, I received a Savvycents Wallet to review and I quickly fell in love with how well it organized the chaos that had been in my purse.  I was so impressed with it that I contacted Melinda Claudepierre who created it to ask if she would consider sponsoring a Giveaway so you could all have the chance to win one too.

 And Guess What!!!!  

She not only said YES!! but offered to Give Away TWO of Them!!

This smart wallet is not only Functional but so Cute and Fashionable.  It contains everything you need to get organized with room for either monthly or weekly budgeting. There is a flexible accordion style file system inside the wallet to separate your paper by category whether you're carrying money, coupons, receipts, lists etc. And this clever wallet comes with pre-printed file cards as well as blank labels so you can customize your wallet to your own specific needs. And to make sure that your change is easily accessible, there is a zippered coin pocket located on the back. 

Everything will stay neatly organized with 6 pockets for debit, credit and store discount cards. On the opposite side there is a spot for your driver’s license and even a place for your checkbook.  Closes securely with a sturdy zipper to keep everything neat and in its place.



And when you don't feel like bringing a purse, this wallet makes a stylish clutch being 8" x 4" in size and it's available in 3 colors you are going to want to show off. 

There is Basic Black,  Deep Red and the perfect shade of Pink.  All are in a glossy patten finish.

Aloha Friday - Do You Check Out YouTube?


Aloha Fridays are brought to you by Kailani in beautiful Hawaii at An Island Life where Friday is the day to take it easy while anticipating the coming weekend. Today I'm going to link up, take it easy and ask a question.

I'm probably one of the last people on earth to see this heart-warming video that has been all over YouTube and the talk-show circuit. Make sure your sound is on if you haven't seen it (Oh, and you might want to grab a tissue)!


So this week's question,   Do you check out YouTube on a regular basis??  Obviously I don't to have missed this story.
