STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED

I don't normally write or even say things like in my previous blog, but sometimes you just have to get it out...New day, new subject.

Strange things have a tendency to happen around me. When I ran away I went to a friend's house in the back woods of Oklahoma. Very nice, 2 story house on the outside, but with a history.

This house was built in 1827 as a stage stop, post office, general store type place. Lots of history there. It had been modernized quite a bit (wish I had some pictures, maybe I can add some later) but the bones were the same. I loved just imagining what it must have been like. OH and I forgot to mention to my friend about the tendency of strange things happening around me, boy was she in for a surprise!

I come from a family and a part of the country where strangeness is no big deal, so I didn't think anything about it when we started hearing strage noises from upstairs. In the old days the upstairs/attic was used for storage, so naturally we could hear boxes thumping and things being dragged across a bare floor. (it's all carpeted now) We'd go check and nothing. It got to be an everyday occurance, and finally we stopped going up there and looking for every little noise, only the big loud ones.

There were cold spots around various parts of the house which my friend explained away in the most mundane way she could, but I still think differently.

The time came for me to come home. We thought at the time that I would be coming back in a few days, well we all know how that turned out. I had been there nearly 4 months and had quite a bit of personal property there, so she started packing up for me.

I waited a couple of weeks before I asked her about her ghost activity...and guess what?!? Not a peep. She said that maybe they had followed me back home, but that is not the case......They simply didn't have anybody to talk to anymore!...lol
