On October 6, 2009, my 20-year-old son Erik, took his own life. Since that sad and tragic day, an overwhelming sense of grief and despair propelled me into a search for answers. Answers that would provide me and others with comfort and hope. Some of those answers came from the many books I bought, but many came from an unexpected source: Erik himself. Read more.

Channeling Judas Iscariot, Part Two

As a spur of the moment decision, we decided to drive down to a ranch in Curero, Texas owned by Houston’s parents. (Houston is my daughter, Kristina’s, hubby.) I think we kind of invited ourselves while having a random phone conversation with Kristina during our date night dinner. Oops. I’m a country girl at heart...

Erik Pranks my Son

I wanted to tell you the latest thing that Erik did around here. I was telling my 17 year son about “God” and the after life and Erik. I showed him the blog and you tube channel. I could tell he was excited about it but also maybe a little skeptical. I told him that...

Stop Messing with my Mouse!

So, I was reading through the CE blog members group and I was reading about someone asking if Michael Jackson or Elvis were in the queue and someone said they had already been interviewed. So I went over to the CE to search for them so I could read them. Found it, then tried to...

God, Part Two

I’m doing the coolest experiment as a vlog, y’all! I have three glass jars, each filled with a little rice that’s then covered with water. Every day for a month, I’m going to say, ‘Thank you’ to jar #1, ‘You’re an idiot!’ to jar #2 (I always feel really bad when I do that one.)...

What is God? Part One

Today, I’m taking care of my grand daughter, Arleen. I wasn’t expecting to, but Michelle’s babysitting plans fell through. That means I won’t be able to do as much of my usual work because I need that important time for playing Magical Forest, Doggie Fashion Show and other adventures and extravaganzas. Today is the beginning...

Humor and Beauty

This past weekend I was husbandless. A motorcycle widow. Rune left for COTA (the track in Austin) to defy death at speeds over 180 mph. Fortunately, as always, he came back in one piece. Of course he’s covered from head to toe in all kinds of leathers, pucks, back and chest protectors, etc. but I...

I Was Punked by a Ghost….Twice

This one made me belly laugh! I heard about this blog from a friend of mine who lost her husband unexpectedly a year and a half ago. She hasn’t even really looked into the blog, channelingerik.com, but I was intrigued and began perusing the site. I noticed that as Erik’s abilities (and remembrances) in Spirit...

The Power of Music

This morning was a nightmare. Rune wanted to borrow my car because his truck is hooked up to his racing trailer (no, he doesn’t race trailers,) and he didn’t want to unhook it only to come back and hook it up again to go to the track today. So I borrowed Lukas’s car to pick up...

Where to Begin

If you're new to Channeling Erik, I recommend you read the backstory first. Then, I suggest you start with the very first post. In doing so you can follow my journey just as I did, through the inexplicable, inconceivable, and yet utterly undeniable surprises that I have encountered since my son''s death. Welcome.
