A ghost in the house?

Yesterday I was being completely lazy and didn't bother getting out of bed early but I was rudely pulled out of my semi-sleep by someone or something yanking the covers off of me. When I looked around I saw no one and figured it was nothing. I pulled them back up and went back to sleep. Then a little while later it happened again. I looked around but again no one was there. I looked under the bed and around the room but I was completely alone. I called out but no one answered. I walked downstairs periodically calling out but no one answered. I looked in the garage, there was no car. No one was home but me. It creeped me but I shook it off and tried to act like an adult and not a scared little girl.

I went upstairs and started a shower. I got undressed (no I will not go into any details), turned off the light in the closet and closed the door. I got in the shower and was relaxing in the hot water when I heard the cat hissing. I wiped the steam from the shower door to find my cat having a hissy fit. I caulked it up to the cat just being a cat and went on with my shower. When I finished I opened the door and toweled myself off. That's when I noticed something was wrong. The door to the closet was open. The light was still off and I felt a cold chill run down my back. I walked (fairly quickly) to the top of the stairs and started yelling to see if anyone was home yet.

No answer.   

I was alone.

I went back and stood there in the middle of the room just listening. I don't know what I was really listen for but I didn't really know what to do and I felt scared. I knew I had to go to the closet to get clothes but I really didn't want to. I saw the cat sleeping under the bed and grabbed him. I figured if there was still something in the closet the cat would hiss again. We, cat and I, walked to the closet and he didn't have an issue. I walked in and turned on the light. I saw nothing out of place. The clothes were still folded on the shelves, the dirty clothes were still in the hamper and my shoes were thrown everywhere. I grabbed what I needed and got out of the closet as soon as I could. 

I was chicken to go back in. An hour later everyone came home and they found me downstairs holding on to my dog for support and security. What a wuss I felt like. There have been other "things" happening and I will keep you all informed of my new adventure.

Until then...

Day 6 Shake Day

This is day six and although there wasn't anything really eventful about the day there are updates to be shared. My husband and I have noticed that we are sleeping better and waking up with fewer aches and pains and issues. Now, we are not sure if that's because of the weight loss or the cleansing that we are going through. Also, I have noticed that while studying for my LSAT I have more focus and ability to analyze better. My exercise stamina is better. I did workout again at the gym but I am winding down. I am only doing 45 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes walking. No extra bike ride tonight. All in all, we are getting used to the program and feel that we have benefited from it. We are also going to continue try to reach our respective goal weight. Our next purchase will be the 30 program which we will share. Since it cost $200+ each we are trying save money by just splitting it. I will keep you posted and on Tuesday of next week (August 16th) I will post our 9 day pr...

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

Nail Journal Update

No, my five wonderful readers, I have not forgotten about you. I went camping! Yes, yours truly went into the woods and camped. Actually I drove through the woods to a cabin. But before you say that's not real camping. Let me elaborate. It was a one room cabin, no running electricity, no running water, no restroom. See...that is camping.  And before you say "ewww" there was an outhouse down the dirt road for us to use. Now you can say ew.  Really it wasn't so bad.  We camped out in Hermit Park by Estes Park Colorado .  So we were out there for 4 nights, 5 days. That's a lot when you have to ration water, keep your own food cold in the cooler (which this wasn't too hard since there was still snow on the ground) and figure out lighting at night. Now in all fairness, the cabin had propane lighting and a stove with a heater, Not too bad.  Why am I telling you this and what does this have to do with nails? I'll tell you.  As you ...
