Admitting I was spooked

OK I have thought about this all morning. I went around my place, checked everything out but ~7:30-8 pm last evening for some reason I got scared. I mean really afraid. Nothing happened just one second I got spooked. I first tried to shake it than remember what they say about listening to your intuition. So I checked rooms out, looked outside, dog was quiet, horses were quiet, but still had the hair on my back just not laying right. My outside motion lights were not coming on - usually a deer goes by.

SO i thought maybe somebody from the other side is trying to let me know something so i got a cup of cocoa, sat still, started reading to see if something would happen. Told whoever it was get it over with, tell me what they needed to say....nothing. Probably good thing I woulda had a heart attack.

I woke up all night long off and on - My computer was doing weird things, I honestly posted something like this - it showed going through but did not show up. SO I posted other things - weird Again showed going through but did not show up on the list. Same with Facebook......

SO I waited until this morning - postings not there,
NOW an older neighbor passed away day before yesterday, Grandpa Bob was everyones Grandpa, I really liked him. He was feisty but a good good guy, so I think maybe he was here but than again why would I be spooked?

I am not easily spooked, not afraid of being alone, and usually I'd take a bat outside to plunk some one but this time I locked up good, and stayed put. SO tell me I am losing it....

No I don't think you are losing it. I don't understand things like this too much. I remember one time about 25 years ago I had the exact same feeling. It was late at night, all was calm, the dogs were all sleeping and not a soul in sight. I spent a restless night, but remember a soft floral scent at times. The next day I found out that my great aunt had passed away the night before. She was one of my favorite people to go visit as often as I could. I didn't connect the two things until years later.

The other night my dogs and I were sitting on the sofa watching TV. They seemed to be on alert of some sort. Ginger was up on her front legs with her nise in the air sniffing like she smelled something. I got up and looked around and locked the doors but I did feel unnerved by it. When my husband was alive my bind dog J would jump up in front of him waiting for a treat. Sometimes J will be in the middle of the room and start jumping up at "no one"..I do get spooked.

Definitely strange energy where you were. It must have been Bob saying goodby to this earth with a bang! Particularly since your computer connections went haywire.

You probably were spooked because you didn't know where it was coming from. If it was an intruder, the dogs and horses would have let you know and you could go out with your bat and take care of it.

Energy changes, vibrations from the Other Side are different. Not to say they are spooky, just unexpected and a little strange until you find out "who" they're from.

I welcome those signs from David, but until I'm sure they are from him, it does feel a little weird.
