Busy Week

I haven't posted on here in quite some time, but in all honesty, not much has happened. Then again, I have been swamped with work and school, so there is a good chance I simply haven't paid enough attention to notice.

With that said, it has been a busy week, paranormally speaking.

Earlier this week, Gabe (my husband) and I were in bed watching a movie. Our boys were all sound asleep and our teenage daughter was spending the night elsewhere. Suddenly, we both heard a loud "MOM" coming from downstairs. It sounded as if my daughter were standing at the bottom of the stairs, calling up to me because something was wrong. However, I knew she wasn't home and I thought it odd for anyone to be calling me from downstairs as no one was down there. Gabe went to investigate and found no one or nothing amiss.

Wednesday I worked from home because I was not feeling well. Our home office is on the lowest level of our condo (our condo is three stories), situated immediately behind the garage. As I was at my desk, I heard a soft thump and someone call for help, as if they were injured, had stumbled into something and were too weak to help themselves. It sounded as if it were coming from either inside my garage or immediately around it, but when I checked, no one was to be found anywhere.

Then last night, all of my children were in bed and Gabe was at work (he works 3rd shift). I am a very light sleeper, to the point of simply opening my bedroom door usually wakes me up unless you are very careful and quiet about it....a trait none of my children possess. My children all have a habit of coming into my room during the night and waking me, because they either aren't even remotely quiet about it or because they leave the door open, so the light from the hallway wakes me up. I also have been in the habit of locking my door at night to prevent this, knowing they would knock if they needed me. I have insomnia and very rarely sleep at night. I wake up at 2am almost every night and last night was no different. However, this time, I woke up to the light on my husband's side of the bed on. Now, this puzzled me for a few reasons.

1. My bed is nestled into a small nook with a window. The window is large and we have a light mounted on either side of the window, which just happens to fall on each side of the bed, like night reading laps. If you are laying on your side of the bed, you just have to reach behind your head to turn your light on. However, to turn the light on on the other side of the bed, you have to actually get up to do so, you can't reach it from your side of the bed. Meaning, I could not have turned it on in my sleep, as I would have had to actually get up to do so.

2. Due to the size of the nook and the positioning of our bed, a child would not be able to reach the switch without actually getting into the bed. So there is no way one of my children would have been able to sneak into my room and turn the light on, because the second they got into the bed, it would have woke me.

3. My husband tried to use the light the other night and it would not turn on. We assumed the bulb blew out and I am pretty sure the light was then unplugged.

So how the light turned on is a mystery to me. No one was awake when I woke either.

Remember the Alamo!

So I haven't posted on here (or in any of my blogs) lately and it needs to stop! Haha!

So last weekend my daughter and I headed to San Antonio for Vans Warped Tour. We had a complete blast, but did want to make a weekend out of it, so we got a hotel and decided to heard to the Alamo and the Riverwalk the next day.

I was completely unaware that the Alamo was literally just situated in the middle of San Antonio. We parked and were walking to where it was to be and all of a sudden WHAM! there it was. Obviously, I was in awe to be seeing a piece of history for the first time. I mean, the Alamo is a 300 year old building. It isn't often you find something that old in this neck of the woods.

The second we approached it, the energy of the place hit me HARD! I immediately felt anxious and my heart started racing. As we walked around, I felt a heaviness in my chest (which is a trigger to me that spirit energy is around) and randomly just wanted to burst into tears. I actually got so overwhelmed that I had to leave and the feeling didn't subside until I was blocks away.

Now I am no stranger to spiritual energies, spirits themselves or the likes...but this is the first time I have ventured into a place so rich with history. It was a little more than I was prepared to handle. I'll need to really ground myself next time and mentally prep so that I don't end up feeling like I am about to have a panic attack.

It is a beautiful place and very interesting through. I'd recommend it if you have never been. But if you are at all "sensitive", please note there is a lot of energy there.

Voices

A few days ago I was up in my bedroom on the computer working and watching a movie (I have two monitors so I work in one and watch a movie in the other). My dog was laying on the bed behind me and my two younger boys were downstairs playing. All of a sudden, I heard an unfamiliar child's voice. I paused the movie and listened. I heard nothing but my boys. I assumed it was my imagination or something and went back to work. About a minute or two later I heard it again. I turned to hear it better and my dog even perked up and stared at the door. I heard it again and clearly my dog did too because he took off out of the room barking. I thought maybe a neighbor came to the door and my boys answered it. Nope. They were playing quietly in the living room.
The next morning, my daughter was about to head out the door for school and all of a sudden turned and asked me if one of her brothers was downstairs in the office. I told her no, that he wasn't even awake yet. She got a puzzled look on her face and said she just heard heavy breathing coming from the little hallway area that leads to the office. Our house is three levels and if you stand at the front door there are stairs that go down to the office and stairs that go up onto the main floor. That is where she was standing when she heard it.

Whispers in the Night

Last night my daughter and I attended a concert and got home quite late. Everyone was already in bed sound asleep when we returned and we were still pretty wide awake, so we camped out on the sectional watching TV until we passed out.

In the middle of the night I woke up for one reason or another and as I was settling back down to sleep, I heard a female voice whispering something. I actually heard what it said, but for the life of me I can't remember what it was. I immediately thought it was my daughter, so rolled over to find her sound asleep and snoring. I then thought maybe one of the kids came downstairs so I sat up and checked around and found myself to be the only one awake. The TV was off and there was no sound in the house other than my fan.

Moved!

So we moved into a new place over the weekend. So far, things have been very quiet around here. I do feel that there may be a presence here, but it feels calm and peaceful. As of right now though, we have had no experiences.

However, when we were moving out of the old place, we kept hearing random bangings and seeing shadows. I think our resident ghosts were simply sad to see us going and were trying to let us know.

Interesting

So I told my daughter about what I saw on the track at her school and she responded with, "oh I know, he watches us run a lot when we are out there". She said it like it was nothing...lol. Apparently, he is often seen up there on or around the track. Good to know it wasn't just my eyes playing tricks on me.
