The share continues, about my guitar playing, network administrating, dog owning, rifle range motorcycle buddy. We learn about what life was like, in the late 1990s, in I.T., from one woman's perspective, while this was happening. One afternoon, ghost grandma and grandpa needed to talk. Channeling spirit can be intense, funny, and baffling, and I share what it's like. They loved their grandkid, he was in trouble, and that's the only reason they were talking to me.

Working with your hands {crochet, cannabis}, can help mental health. Here's an article from Psychology Today, discussing the topic, "Working With Your Hands Does Wonders for Your Brain" by Susan Biali Haas M.D. :

POD DESCRIPTION:
This is the House on Valencia Street. This is a place where ghosts and psychics, with PTSD, exist, and I'm talking about it. Share time with a rare survivor, walking back to haunted rooms and space being claimed from long ago. This is from the survivor's perspective, communicated as I see fit, in a way that feels right, for me.
I do not offer advice here, I share what worked for me. I am not a professional therapist, this is just one case study, one perspective. Please seek professional help, if mental health issues need attention.
Language is explicit, Content Warning / Trigger Warning: ghosts, psychic ability, rape, incest, foster care, murder, emancipation, BDSM, therapy, lightning strikes, personal responsibility, Buddhism, recovery, codependency, domestic violence - and inappropriate humor, most likely.
Picture inset: This is me, so many years ago, standing in front of my mother's Impala, and the House on Valencia Street.
