Do you ever get the feeling that something bad is going to happen?  It has happened to me many times over the years. 

 

One in particular in the past was while driving on the highway something horrible came over me and I told my husband to get off the highway.  I didn’t know if it was just my anxiety or what but he actually listened and we never found out if I was just nuts or if anything happened.  I don’t think I really wanted to know. 

 

The night before my dog died last year both me and my youngest daughter felt something was off. 

 

It usually doesn’t happen that often but reacently it happened twice.  I never know if it’s my immediate family or someone else close to us.  

 

Last weekend I was supposed to go on a camping trip in Ohio.  Unfortunatly I wound up with bronchitis with a touch of pneumonia early in the week and sent my family without me.  I had a bad feeling the night before they left but was hoping everything was ok and didn’t want to freak them out by telling them.  As it happens I was meant to stay home for a very good friend of mine who needed me.  Once she was okay and with me the feeling went away.

 

This past Sunday I woke up with that feeling.  I knew something was going to go wrong.  My daughter babysat for a good friend of ours only to have her call us to pick her up as he was injured in an ATV accident.  He is okay but when I heard that I knew my bad feelings from that morning had let loose. The creepy part is my yougest again told me she felt something that morning as well. 

 

Once I know what the bad thing is I feel better.  Not better as in I am happy but my mental state is better because I feel like I don’t have to worry anymore. 

 

Everything happens for a reason.  I just hate waking up and spending my day worrying, waiting until something bad happens.  I wish there was something I could do to know, to stop things from happening but most often I can’t and can just be there for the aftermath. 

 

Am I nuts?  Is it some womens intuition?  Is there something out there telling me something?  Again, am I nuts?
