Is this following me?

I went to the new house yesterday to see all the updates and fixes that are supposedly being done. I found that I could not tell if anything had been done from the inside but the things that needed to be fixed on the outside of the house are still pending. So I went around to the back of the house to check on the the progress there. I found the back door ajar. This pissed me off! This is the third time I've gone to the house and it's open/unlocked. Of course, with me just days away from owning the house, I felt it was OK to go inside and make sure everything was in order.

The house is empty and has been going on five months. It echoes when I clear my throat because there is nothing to absorb the sound. It's eerily quiet and still. I checked room to room starting in the basement and working my way up to the master bedroom. Everything seemed OK. Nothing was damaged and some of the work promised had been done.

I got to the top of the stairs and felt a cold breeze kiss my exposed shoulder. I looked around. I was alone. "Hello?" I called out. I figured the cold breeze could have come from someone coming in the house like the real estate agent or handyman. There was no response or sound. I let it go. I stood there looking around the new house admiring what I am about to purchase. I really do love this house. Then I heard something...I'm not really sure what it was. I am not even sure how to describe it. Some writer I am, right? Don't answer that.

It was very low and quiet but audible. I strained my ears to hear it but I couldn't figure out where it came from. I walked into each upstairs room again, thinking it might be a blocked vent or something. I didn't see or hear anything out of the ordinary. I was in, what will be my office, when from the corner of my eye I saw some figure move. I quickly turned to see who it was and even ran out of the room to catch them.

There was no one there.

I was still alone in the empty house.

I have to admit that at this time, I got a little freaked out. I tried to keep my composure, like there was someone watching me, and faked being calm. I walked down stairs and squeaked out a "Hello?" in case the person in the house didn't hear me the first time. Again, no response and no sound. I made my way to the back door and locked it on the way out.

I walked around to the front of the house and looked at it one last time before I left. I am not sure if I was just imagining this or perhaps the sun was playing tricks on me but I could have sworn I saw something in the master bath window for just a brief moment. I literally rubbed my eyes and it was gone. So I have a question...did I just imagine this or is this following me?

For those of you who have read my previous blogs, yes you three know who you are, you know that this has happened to me before but in the current house that I am in. Am I just a magnet or a over stimulated writer? I would like to say that I knew the answer to that question. Since I was young I have always wanted to profess simply being an over stimulated writer but in all honesty, that has not always been the case.

Until next time...

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

Change of the guard, nail style

I have had the flu for the past week which offered me the opportunity to spend time with my nails. Turn a negative into a positive, right? Well, after my last post I thought about the products that I was using to try to get my nails to grow.  My Pinterest account  Jennipher Dallas  has been getting a lot of "likes" and repins. My board 'Nails I wish I had'   has especially been getting a lot of attention. One picture in particular has had over 300 likes/repins since my last blog. The picture is of the OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener. I did look up OPI and although they do not do animal testing but there is formaldehyde in it.  When you're sick you think about how you got sick and what you need to do to get better. So this got me thinking about the stuff in the products that I use. Formaldehyde has been linked with Cancer . Now, I'm not going to go into to all that stuff and preach about it. Everyone has to make their own decisions. But I decided t...

Dilemma-ethical-uh?

If you google the word dilemma it comes up with the following definition: "A situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives, especially equally undesirable ones." Then goes on to give synonyms like quandary, predicament and vicious circle.  *Sigh* Well, wonders never cease in my world and for the sake of my sanity I hope my five whole readers understand what I am about to spill. Everyone has someone in their family that does not sit right with them (I'm trying to be ambiguous here for a reason). I am no different. I have no real family anymore. Since my father died almost two months ago, I have NO family anymore. Sure, I have a sibling, who is a complete and utter moron. This person is a run away from responsibility, self-centered individual who I have tried to help throughout the years. The other person is a selfish, self-centered, manipulative, gas bag who thinks the world revolves around them and goes out the ...
