When DD was 2 and a half or so, she was supposed to be in bed and I heard her playing in her room with this toy kitchen she had. When you turned the dials it clicked really loudly and I could hear it in our room on the other side of the house. I whispered to my husband that I could hear her playing with it and that I was going to let her play for 5 minutes and then go in and tell her to go to bed. 2 minutes later she gave a little scream and started crying and I heard her run to her bed. I went in to check on her and she said "The woman" scared her...she described what the woman was wearing, what she looked like, and said the woman had told her she was supposed to be in bed, not playing. I didn't see anyone there, so we told the woman that she was right, but asked her to please not scare DD and that I was the mommy and I would tell her when she needed to be in bed, that she didn't need to do that. It never happened again.

We've been in our home for over 25 years.
Every dog we've ever owned (9 in total), has, several times during the course of the time we've had them, stopped and stared high up on the wall above DWifey's night stand in our bedroom. I've checked the walls, attic, everything. We've never been able to figure it out... :cyclops:

Well, I went to the O's game yesterday and was just really careful. It was the last game of the season, and I might be away for several months next year, so no clue when I'll go again. Also, it was fun watching them sweep the Yankees. Came home with a migraine and went to bed. Better this morning, but now my hand hurts unbelievably badly. Studying for Spanish test just in case I have to take it today.

Sympathy like.
Hope it starts to feel better, very soon.

This is a completely true story. I know, I've had a lot of experiences in my life, but it is what it is. When we bought our second home in Kansas City, it was used and unusual. For the first thing it had black wall paper in the bathroom. ( I forgot to say hubby put an offer on it before I had even seen it). It was very dark with dark paneling (popular) in the day. Heavy cornice boards and curtains. I never felt right , or happy in this home. We had our funny little doggie Freddy at this time. Every time, I would go to the basement, I felt uneasy. I did go into the home, took down the cornice boards, curtains, took out the dark brown carpet. It did lighten up the house. But, DD kept saying she saw a man ( she was 6 then), sitting in living room chair, at night. Of course I told her she was dreaming, or had a big imagination. Problem was I would hear footsteps coming down the hallway, late at night, around 3 A.M. Freddy would sit just inside the bedroom, with low menacing growl. It didn't happen every night, but enough to make everyone uneasy. To make a long story short, the owner of the house, had died in it from cancer. That explained a lot to me. We moved after my neighbor's told us what had happened in that house. I was never so glad to leave in my life. Moral of the story...find out what happened before you occupy a used house. Or don't buy used. We bought another used home in Colorado, no ghosts, but crazy things built in that home. The one we have now, was new, and I told hubby when we move for the last time, it better be new. I'm not putting up with that kind of stuff anymore.:eek:
My dad was diagnosed with diabetes and rapid melonoma a year before my wedding. The chemo wasted him away (near the end he could only eat soup) but staying positive we said he had to stay alive to walk me down the aisle, the last daughter to get married. Which he did. Four months later I bought my house and after my dad inspected it he said "You don't need me anymore." Which I said that's crazy, you're my dad. A month later he died. Two months later (after years of me and my ex being told we'd never have kids) I got pregnant. I remember saying in the hospital birthing room I wish my dad was there.

Around one my daughter started talking to "someone" and was always fascinated with a picture of my dad. When she was two she was sitting on my bed and told me there was a man in the bathroom. :cyclops: (My ex had walked out on us way before this, wasn't him.) Then she'd tell me often the man was sitting beside us in my family room. Many, many nights for years she would be talking to "someone" in her room. Whenever something odd happens in our home (like the nightstand light itself turning off) we just chalk it up to Granpa. :joyfull:

Pretty, but it makes me want some hot cocoa!

With how cold it has been for the first few days and high winds, no sun Cocoa would be in order even without the snowy picture. I went into Starbucks to order Cocoa (not my favorite) and walked out with a Salted Caramel Mocha Venti. Likely had more calories in that honking yummy beverage than I generally eat all day.
