A Strange Morning.

With the impending heavy rains. We have had to move Leather (The mama dog) and her nine pups into our spare bedroom. Lacie, (A female Pit Bull) had already been staying in the extra room,(As she is a massive dog, and can't handle the Summer heat.) With Leather now in her place, Lacie got moved to the bathroom. I had a feeling that once both of these rooms were occupied, that the activity in the house would pick up. As it seems that our entity hides in one or the other of these places all the time. The first morning I went to the bathroom to let Lacie outside for a potty break. I opened the bathroom door, and was hit in the face with an odor that seemed to be a cross between a dead rat and fresh poop! It was horrible! I quickly scanned the room. There was nothing in site to be causing this terrible stench. I knew it wasn't Lacie, as she had been bathed and given a clean bedding the night before.I continued to let Lacie outside, then I proceeded to clean every surface in the bathroom. Once that was done, I let Lacie back inside. And the bathroom stayed fresh the rest of the day.It was really odd, as there was no reason for such a horrid smell.

As I had suspected, by occupying both rooms, whatever resides here was forced out of hiding. Now my dog Amy will no longer sleep in the living room. She stays glued to my side all night. Not to mention, the Boston is now barking at random things during the night. When Marty and I got up this morning, Amy stayed as close to me as possible. I sat down at my computer with a cup of coffee, then noticed her peering into the sunroom. Her tail was straight up, and her ears were laid back on her head. I watched her for a bit, then told Marty what I had been thinking, about "it" being forced out of hiding. He seemed to kind of brush it off and went back to reading the news on his computer. At this very moment, it was as if his monitor had been hit from behind! BAM! It was jolted forward the rocked back and forth as it settled back down.He and I just looked at each other. We could not explain or recreate what had just happened.I have to say, I wasn't crazy about him leaving me here today and going to work. If it can hit something that hard, what can it do to one of us? I will be so happy when mom and pups get moved back outside. Then this "thing" can get out of our living space.

Update

Since coming home from our Vacation. We have noticed that our Pit Bull Lacie, no longer wants to stay in the spare bedroom. She is continually scratching at the door to be let out.On different occasions, Family members have gone to open the door and let her out, after hearing her scratching, and she will be curled up on her bed sound asleep.So we know that she wasn't the one making the noise. But once we look in on her, the scratching stops.She has been so restless in that room lately, that Marty took the holy water and blessed her bedroom. The scratching stopped immediately. And now Lacie is back to her usual self. BUT, Now I have noises coming from our bedroom. I go to the doorway and look. And of course, there is nothing there.It's not just our bedroom. It seems to be the sunroom too. As the dogs will look at the corner of the room in there or either down the hallway and bark like they just saw a stranger. A really agitated bark. That sets my nerves on edge each time.


The night before last, I was having a hard time sleeping. I woke at some point to hear voices in the kitchen. Must be the kids talking. So I tried to doze back off. Sometime later I awoke to a loud noise. BAM! BAM! BAM! Over and over again. It was loud enough to shake the whole house. I wondered how Marty could still be sleeping beside me. Then it occurred to me, that maybe it was my own blood pressure in my ears. I sat up in bed and listened, Bam! Bam! Bam!It did it again. Then totally silent. Now the voices start again. I know it's a man and a woman. But I cant make out what they are saying.I turn to look at the clock. It is 3:39. I speak rather loudly. OK, This is just bull shit.Then I snuggle down into the covers. Just as I am about to doze off, I hear a kitchen chair slide across the floor. Again I say, It's just bullshit. And finally, drift off to sleep.

The next morning, I find that the whole family had been restless through the night. And all had experiences of their own.

A needed Vacation

This isn't really going to be that big of a paranormal update. But more or less notes for me.

Marty, Chris, My DIL, Trevor and I all went up to Cherokee North Carolina for a few days. During our stay away from home. I never woke up at three thirty. I slept all through the night. To me, this was just amazing. It has been years since I was able to do that. But our very first night home, I was waking up at three thirty-three in the morning.
So, based on this, I don't think whatever it follows us.

*Note. Lacie, our female Pit was staying in the spare bedroom while we were gone. The moment we walked in, I went to let her out of the room, to go outside. And she comes full force at me, just trying to get out of that room.I could not control her at all. And no amount of talking was helping. Marty had to grab her from me and force her out the door. This has NEVER happened.That dog was hell-bent on getting out the closest door she could. But she knows she has always gone out the back door.Never has she gone out the front. (We have another pit female out in the front. If these two girls ever came face to face. It would be a fight to the death) But she was heading out the front door full force, as it was the closest to her. Marty and I both think whatever is in our home, must have terrorized her for the time we were gone. Makes me so sad.That is more than I can take. I will pay for a sitter or board my dogs next time. This will not be allowed to happen again. I let her down completely.
