My Psychic Side (Not to be confused with my PSYCHO side)
I want to share a story with you about something that happened to me yesterday. I'll try not to drag it out and I don't know if you will sense what I was feeling while I was going through this bit of intuitiveness. For starters I hope you all remember seeing a picture of my Christmas tea cups. I bought two of these about ten years ago for $5.00 each. They are named Noel and were made in Bavaria, Germany. I have looked through the Internet for additional pieces, which have met with negative results. So....
I called my sister and talked her into giving me her Friday to go to another town and do some antiquing. We also visited a friend of hers, T, and her GORGEOUS house. My sister suggested that maybe after visiting T that we could go by T J Maxx and check out the sales. I shrugged her off and said, " Nah - I want to go to the Antique Store. Something is drawing me there. I don't know what it is, but I need to go there." Part of me was thinking that I would find another hat to wear to the Clapotis Tea (Feb 08). But, this whole time I had an anixous feeling in me that I couldn't shake. I was bound and determine to go to the antique store one way or the other. We visited T's house, took some pictures and off we went.
Once we were on Main Street I had to decide WHICH antique store to go into. I pulled into one parking slot and then said, " No this isn't it." I pulled out and went down about 25 - 30 feet to the next store. Once we went in we started looking at the two front booths. Then we turned the corner and there it was.
This platter is what was drawing me to the store. I couldn't believe it. I turned it over carefully to check the markings on the back. They looked similar to the one on the back of the saucer. I thought about it and my sister and I talked about how it was to close of a match to pass up. So I bought the platter. I brought it home and BINGO it's a match! The markings on the platter are a little different from the saucer but they are from the same company and have the same name, Noel.
Once we started walking out of the store I told my sister that this was it. I didn't have that anxious feeling anymore - I was complete.

If you don't do any of the above - never mind.
Wishing you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR! Let's all work together to make 2008 Great!
EVVIVA! (Cheers)
Ciao!

Yep, what a match! Keep getting those feelings and you'll have the entire set soon. ; )
Don't you just love it when things like that happen!!
You are giving me goosebumps Terri. The plate was there all the time waiting for you :-)
That's a pretty pattern. I think we all have some psychic abilities, most people aren't open to them. It can be pretty spooky when something like that happens but what a treat for you.
