Pausing edits for breather

Not quite sure why I feel so incredibly exhausted today, but I do. I know I woke up a few times during the night, once being 3:30 AM (checked meh clock) and that will work against me. Maybe just too many nights like that. It was odd. I woke up to what sounded like the cat throwing up, but . . . not. A second later, Kona let out this deep growl when I turned over on my back to hear if it was the cat and try to listen for the sound. Kona was the only dog who growled too. I sssshhhhed him but I heard no other sounds. Then my brain was all, I bet you anything if you look at the clock it’s about 3 AM-ish. Which is why I turned the clock on.

The Witching Hour. I’ve used that in a short story I wrote (Veronica – No #3) because the time is significant with paranormal activity. I’d say it was just my internal clock setting me to wake up at that time because when you’ve done that a few times your body will set itself to continue to wake at that time, buuuuuuttt for the sound and Kona’s reaction. If it were the cat, Kaley would’ve reacted too. Kona has been in this extra “guard momma” time lately at night so I find it interesting.

All this said, yes, we do have activity in this house. It’s hard to explain to anyone who doesn’t believe, but it’s been going on all my life. When I was little I was afraid of sleeping by myself in my bedroom because I just KNEW there was something in my room. And I was frightened of it. I used to see black shapes a lot, lights and TV’s like to turn on by themselves. Or off. The heater has been turned on when none of us did it. So many more oddities that I started writing them down then quit because it was too much. I’ve heard noises and felt things that are definitely not my imagination. We’re the first and only individuals who’ve ever lived here, so it’s not as if someone died here other than pets. I’m rarely afraid of what happens now that I’m older. Just seems like this past month there has been some increase of the nightly oddities.

I’m not the only one who experiences that. My brother has been feeling something touch him at night (he has no animals in his room) and hears voices. It’s funny. There was one night  over a week ago that I thought he was up until I went to bed because I heard voices and I assumed he was watching TV. I asked him what time he went to bed. He told me he went to bed at 7 PM. I heard the sounds at 9 PM and my mom was snoring away by that time in another part of the house. Sooo. lol

This is why I don’t discount anything I’m told, and I’m open-minded. I’ve heard something puff out a breath not an inch from my face while I was brushing my teeth. Ya can’t say things don’t exist when that happens. It’s also why I’m fascinated by the other side of life and fully believe there is another sort of existence out there that we just can’t see. I just hope that whatever is enjoying itself around here will cease playing around at night. At least with me. I need my sleep.

On other things. I am almost halfway through my final read through for Blood By Night.

Have you ever experienced things out of the ordinary?

If you don’t believe in things like that, that’s cool. I may have differing ideas if I had never experienced thing like this either.

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
