Thanks Dee!!!
So nice to hear from a kindred spirit! Yes I am thrilled it is not a constant thing then again sometimes I wish the messages were a little more complete! I had a terible feeling that my Mom was going to go through a horrible trauma and since she was with me at the time, and it was so so strong, I blurted it out! Not a good idea! She pumped me and pumped me for hours afterward and the only other info I got was that it was gonna last 3 years. I think a part of her is still mad at me cause she thinks I should have been able to warn her more specifically about how horrid those next three years were gonna be! In hindsight I wish I hadn't told her because those three years were much more horrible than I ever imagined and my prediction did nothing to prevent any of it!
But yes I try to always listen to these messages and sometimes they simply put me in a strange town where I am able to help someone else and the feelings have nothing to do with me or those I love but I don't mind being a messenger for the universe if nobody else is around. It used to really freak people out though. My husband when we were first married insisted it was just a bunch of strange coincidences but he learned different pretty quickly. He would always want to know how "I knew". I always tell him I didn't know a thing! I just go where I'm told and when I'm told to act or open my mouth I just do so. Not any special brain power required.
I think a lot more of us are born with sensitivities but that at an early age we are taught to ignore them so we do. So I don't really think of it as special per se. It is something you can tune out if you try really hard to but when I tried this I felt like a part of me was drying up. Hard to explain. Kinda like when I don't get a chance to be creative for too long. I think we are meant to use our talents. It's a lot better these days because we are all learning more and more in this information age and more folks are talking about this kind of thing than ever before. We are not as afraid to talk about stuff that can't be explained easily as these comments from you all prove!
Sheryl tell Nonni she is more valuable than she can imagine right now! She is a very precious spirit! Thank you for sharing your experiences. It really helps!
Yes of course you are correct Aubrey. I think it's easier to use a term everyone is familiar with sometimes than to say "Wow I dreamed about this". Especially when we fear ridicule for speaking out. But nobody has accused me of being possessed in a very long time so I think things are getting much better!
Sorry if this conversation made anyone out there uncomfortable. I'll try to shut up now. Although I will freely admit that that is not one of my talents!
Now who is this Darby and Abner? I must have missed a post or two somewhere!
Thanks Dee!!!

I don't think you could ever offend Ron! Besides I completely agree with you! I mean I try to realize that I can't possibly know someone else's pain so I try hard not to judge but I feel like we are here for the time we are supposed to be here. Although I can't really explain why I feel that way.
The next time you dream about an accident you won't be so quick to forget it though I bet! *sigh* Life is just one big long learning lesson isn't it?

Here I am, interjecting another conversation with a chicken question.
Ok, so my hens are laying great right now... 3-4 eggs a day, for 4 hens. They started eating a lot more when the weather turned cold, and there isn't much left in the garden to forage right now. They're now #2 in the Circle of Food (humans first, then chickens, then compost, then garbage) so they're getting things like the can of garbanzo beans that got dropped on the floor, the tomatoes that are going bad, the cracked wheat cereal that didn't get eaten. They also get scratch grains. But I don't want to give them too much, and offset their protein needs for egg production.
So here's my question... has anyone noticed a difference in egg production compared to the quantity of "treats" you give your hens, versus high-protein feed?

I give mine scratch every day. I also give them alfalfa once or twice a week. It gives them something to do, and I think the alfalfa makes the eggs taste better. The yolks are darker and richer. I also give them kitchen scraps. The only thing I've noticed that effects egg production is the number of hours of light they get. Last year, I put a light in with them in winter, and egg production remained pretty steady. This year, I haven't put a light out there and egg production has dropped off considerably, especially since it got cold.
