Three weeks after she retired , her husband found out that he had a brain tumor . He passed away a year later . Even though he had a sarcastic sense of humor , he was a great guy .

My body is achy but that has been almost an everyday thing with me the past few months but I push through it with my writing . I do anticipate all you readers getting to know me through my writing . I want everyone to live in my stories like I do . But that is just me and my thoughts . So off to continue writing I will go because I am on a deadline for manuscript writing .

I took the girls to an aquarium and the beach this past weekend . It was about 80 percent fun ; I think sleeping in the same bed as a two year old who magically morphs into a giant slug that slowly pushes you off the mattress accounts for 10 percent of fun loss . The other 10 percent was lost by losing Morgan for about three minutes . Our hotel was right on the beach so we marched right on down to the shore . The first time was great . We found shells , put our feet in the water and called it a day . The second time , Halle plopped herself in the ocean , Morgan fell in it , and we were all so sandy and dirty that I quickly remembered why we rarely visit the sea . Near the hotel entrance , there was a hose you could use to wash yourself off with . While I washed Halle 's pants and feet , Mo

As it was , it was only irritating and distracting . Morgan popped out from behind her bush a few minutes later and asked me what was wrong . " What happened , Mommy ? " I told her we were not going back to the beach for a very long time . Morgan has done this once before ; while Halle is two years older and terrible at hide - and - seek ( " Mommy ! You 're missing a little girl ! I 'm over here ! " ) , Morgan is a master at it . While my mom was visiting , we went shopping in Ralei |

The historic district served ony as a backdrop for our discussions which ranged from the Yoga teacher 's visit ( Jim had asked me to be an interpreter for them - the topic of their discussion : man as a tightrope walker heading towards death ) to analyzing Nietzche 's opinions on suicide . Jim was obsessed by death . Everyone knew this , but rarely did he bring up this topic with me . That morning his words went back to that subject many times .

Being pregnant seemed my priorities changed overnight and I really didn 't care about my lesson plans all that much anymore .

It was built in 1995 , a 3 , 200 sq . foot , 3 story , red brick house with green shutters , located in a fairly large neighborhood . It appears as normal as could be , but once you have lived there and experienced things , it is anything but normal . I have a whole plethora of ghostly occurrences related to the house , but I have selected the best to share on this website : 1 ) I was at home by myself one day , just sitting and playing my piano ( dated 1878 ) in the front room of the house when all of the sudden I felt a cool breeze rush quickly past my back and then it felt as if someone laid an ice - cold hand on my shoulder , though the windows were shut and the air conditioning unit was broken at this

I had gotten up and gone into the kitchen while Ashlynne was talking to me . All of the sudden her face turned extremely pale and drained of all color . She jumped up and ran out the front door . I chased after her and asked her what had happened . Shaking with terror , she explained to me that she had seen a transparent lady dressed in Victorian - era clothing with light brown hair walk straight across the living room , but she only had seen the reflection in the mirror .

Rebuilding trust had to start somewhere , so I put forth the effort into repairing our relationship by giving him the benefit of the doubt . The days went on and the emotional rollercoaster was unstoppable . On certain days I would be so in love with him and other days I despised him . One particular night when my love for him was wavering , I went against my better judgment and as he slept I grabbed his cell phone to begin searching . I had no idea what I was looking for , since he changed his number , however I wanted to make sure he wasn 't contacting her . My heart raced and was pounding out of my chest .

Author 's Notes : This story takes place during the episode ' Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows ' . Part of this story is straight from the show , and part of it is my version of what was left out . Written February 2005 When Lucas got up he decided to just leave for school as quick as he could , so he wouldn 't have to have much contact with anyone . He had just moved into Dan and Debbie 's house , and it felt more then strange to be there . As he stepped out of his room he saw Dan who offered him some breakfast . Lucas declined just as Debbie was coming into the house . Debbie said , " Lucas , hi . What are you doing here ? " Lucas shook his head and walked out the door trying to get away quickly . He was originally going to head to school , but after his surprise morning , he decided

But I wonder if he would be so willing to pay for it if he didn 't have me under his control with this secret . ' Lucas sighed and thought again about telling his mother the truth . But then he shook his head and thought , ' That would be selfish . You 're protecting her from getting hurt , and she couldn 't afford the medical expenses if I did tell her , and she wouldn 't want Dan to pay .

How do you do this ? Today was my eighteenth birthday , the age of majority . I was a kid , a minor , yesterday and no one would listen to me . They still don 't listen to me today , but I was getting it across that I wasn 't happy . Mom and Dad were buried last week , after a hurried autopsy that declared their deaths accidental . I don 't think so . The autopsy said they had both been drinking and were under the influence of not only booze , but some kind of drug that would make them a little crazy . That was impossible because Dad had always been a teetotaler , although Mom liked a nip of wine and some Kentucky hooch when her family brought some down . That 's probably how I had two younger brothers and three younger sisters . I know , I know , six kids are probably too many , but we we

BTW , Angela gave a good response , perhaps a little kinder than I would have been … Let me start by asking a question .

Still , I had to admit there was an allure in doing something by myself that was entirely different . I was almost forty - years old and by some calculations my life was probably half over . Even if I wasn 't in the right income bracket I was captivated by the idea . The notion of striking out on my own was there . In those days I read the newspaper each day .
