This may be something that's only affecting me but I want to ask everyone.... how was your "holiday"? It seems that we had a case of the holiday "Spirit" (litterally) around here. There's always some sort of activity here at my house but it was really noticeable through Christmas & New Years.
Since this place is larger, we have a habit of tapping on the ceilings to get each other's attention (when they are upstairs) instead of yelling up the stairs to tell them they have a phone call, or supper is ready, ect. And it seems like our "resident roommates" (spirits) have learned to do this also.
There's been several nights when everyone was already upstairs and we'd hear someone tapping the floor to one of our rooms. At first we thought someone must have went back downstairs but "Nope, and we thought maybe it was the dogs, but well that would be kind of hard for them to do lol"
Then just a few nights ago, I was working on re-arranging downstairs and decided to stop for awhile and take a break. I saw someone in the window (I thought it was one of the kids coming down the stairs and was just their reflection) and so I was getting ready to ask what they were doing and then I remembered that none of them were here. Then I also thought about the fact that they couldn't reflect off the stairs anyhow.
Then not long after that my dogs both took off running for the kitchen growling and barking like someone was here, I heard the doors open but when I walked into the kitchen nobody was there, but the outside back door was open. (we keep that one closed and locked because the wind blows it open) So that kind of puzzled me especially with the dogs acting up also.
So I'm just curious if anyone else has had anything like this happening with them? I kind of wonder if maybe we have more spirit activity because it is the holidays and maybe family and friends are just trying to let us know they are still around. Or maybe it's because theres so much electricity from all the lights, and decorations that theres more of an energy source for them to make themselves known easier this time of year?
Personally I'm not sure, but I'd really like to think it's the first option, although maybe the fact that there is so much energy it does help us be able to notice them easier.
