On 9-25-21 I drove to a physical theraphy center in Leesburg, Florida, to see a friend who had been admitted there from a local hospital. The center was located on Palmetto Street, a few miles from my home. I wasn't allowed to see my friend that afternoon, as she was in temporary isolation for covid. An older dollar General Store and a Sherwin Williams store is on the corner of Palmetto Street and highway 441. As I was about to pass the Dollar General store I felt a wave of nostalia sweep over me, memories of the many years I had lived in Leesburg began to play through my mind's eye. I decided to stop and look for a fun inexspensive Birthday gift for another friends October birthday, at the Dollar General. I found just the right gift, a small ceramic white skull with pink and blue Aztec designs, and walked to the cashier's counter with my treasure. My friend had always wanted to go to Mexico for the "night of the dead" Halloween celebration. I waited in line for a few minutes then it was my turn to be checked out. The young lady cashier smiled at me, and said, "Oh, you've come back and bought another Halloween Mexican skull". "No, I smiled back, "this is the first time I've been in this store for several years." The young cheerful lady cashier looked puzzled as she added up the price of the skull. I quickly paid for the skull then began asking rapid fire questions. "did my look a like have on the same shirt I am wearing? The cashier said, "yes". "Did my look a like have the same hat on that I am wearing? The cashier replied, "no". Did she have on my same glasses? The cashier said, "yes". By now I was feeling excited that I might have a "double" on a different timeline, what is termed "a doppelganger". I walked around the counter towards the front door, and said, "I hope I didn't scare you." I caught a glimpse of her face as I walked pass, she wasn't frightened at all, she looked determined. "I wish I could see my double she said in a low voice".Later that afternoon I came back to the Dollar General Store, the young lady cashier was sitting outside the store. I took a few pictures of the two stores then walked over to talk to her. I gave her my card stating I was a UFO paranormal investigator and writer. "Do you mind if I ask a few more questions?" She replied, "Go ahead". When did my look a like come into your store?" The cashier replied, "the day before you did". "And she looked exactly like me and her voice sounded the same as mine?" "Yes", the cashier said, looking a bit impatient. "There was much similarity", she continued. I smiled and thanked her for her time. I asked to take a picture of her, she said no, however I could take a picture of her store badge. I took the picture then walked to my car feeling elated that I now had enough information to consider two answers to the mystery. One being that for some reason my double had appeared briefly in my timeline, the other one was more appealing. "Could my timeline be blending with that of an alternate self's timeline? " For now, I had too many questions and too few answers.
