Precautions

So after my close call (really the first of many) I decided that I probably needed to take some precautions when it came to flying. By this time I had decided without reservation that I would never tell another living soul about my ability. I knew it would only cause problems. I had to figure […]

A Close Call

For several weeks I would put Claire on the bus and immediately begin to fly for at least an hour. It was a wonderful time in my life. I was free and soaring through the air and it was miraculous to say the least. Many friends of mine were also homemakers and often made attempts […]

It was not a dream

The next morning I awoke and for a while didn’t even think about flying. My mornings were always hectic and getting everyone out the door at the right time with lunches and making sure they were dressed appropriately and such.

The Beginning

Well it’s been a while and I apologize. My granddaughter is busy and I could not figure this out on my own. This time I took careful notes so I think I can go alone from here on out. I come from a totally normal family and no one I know of has ever been […]

About Me
