:confused: OK... we've been in this new rent house for about 3 months now. It's a 3 bedroom - 1280 sq. ft. house. It's' on piers and overall is a cute clean house. My husband, two year old daughter, & I live there.
Well, over the past 3 months... I have noticed the glass light bulb cover on the floor several times. In our kitchen we have 2 lights. No ceiling fans, but just the bulb with little round chinsy bulb cover. Well, I remember thinking when I found it on the floor those times before "How the heck did this thing not break?" Needless to say, I dismissed it & went on about my buisness. I put the bulb cover back up myself this past weekend. I got on a chair & screwed it in tightly myself. Well, Monday night... I had just laid my daughter to sleep in her bed & I heard a LOUD thud come from the kitchen. Well, I got up & thought my husband was banging around int he kitchen. I hollered at him & he was laying on the bed in our room wondering what it was as well. So, I reluctantly walked in the kitchen & found the bulb cover lying on the floor again. NOW... this time, I was freaked out. They are nine foot ceilings.. how did this thing not bust? & howcome I had found it 2 times before on the floor & it had not busted then either. Isn't there some kind of probability that it would eventually shatter. I knew I had put that back up myself tight the last time. So, it's not like the vibration from the house shook it out of the socket was a good enough excuse this time. What I stood on a chair & dropped it from the ceiling height? I bet it will break.
:(
Next, this morning my daughter & were getting ready for our day. We were in my bedroom & was getting dressed. No sound was in the house... no radio, no tv, just her playing with a brush in my floor. So, then.... I hear a cabinet SLAM shut loudy. Like someone had to have slammed it shut. The weird thing is.. .no one had been in the kitchen last night or this morning to get a drink or anything, so no cabinets had possibly been left open. So it's not like the cabinent just fell shut the rest of the way. This thing was slammed. So, I snatched up my daughter & left with wet hair for the day.
I feel a bit weird when my husband is not around. I don't like being in the house by myself anymore. I've just been thinking that I was being a scaredy cat & I needed to chill. But because of this last week... I'm officially freaked out. Oh, and the fact that tomorrow is Friday the 13th, that does not help at all. I'm gonna buy some sage & say a blessing tonight but if anything else happens... I'm calling somebody. What do you think... are these things weird?
