its ether gremlins ,ghost or old age taking over,


OLD AGE! I'm only 28 years old, I hope it isn't old age!
I guess it could be opening doors but it's hard to believe when I check and double check the doors to make sure they are latched. Especially the fridge door, it is hard enough for us to pull it open.
Well leaving the ghosts out of it, it would be the only logical explanation. Very odd though that a cup jumped over other cups to escape! The strange things that happen when you travel!

Gremlins don't like to travel. They hook up, but stay in only one place. Ghosts however, love to hook up and love to travel. They'll go every where you go. And will follow you everwhere. So if you park at home, they'll follow you into your house. They hide under your bed, and in your closets, or kithchen cupboards. Can even glom on to your shoes. They are always with you, everywhere you go. You cannot get away from them. Only when they find someone else that they like better.

The good news is, that once you discover you have a ghost, and you acknowledge his presence, you learn to live with it, and accept his contributions to your family. Just do not get it angry. Give the ghost a name. Makes it feel like it belongs. And have fun with it.

Mostly, they're friendly. And play mischievious little pranks on you. But if you get them angry, they turn up the heat. And then it gets ugly. Do not talk negatively about the ghost. He/She will get very angry. And don't ever try to exorcize your ghost. Don't buy into the internet ads. It never works.

Just do not sleep with your foot hanging off the edge of the bed. It'll grab you, will not hurt you, but you will not sleep for 7 years.

I know these things.

I too have had problems, with heater coming on at 2 am every day. I did not thinks about gremlins do it. But at last found the problem when I changed the remote receiver up in ac unit. I almost brought a new heater to stop this but the dealer said let him try one thing. Yes, you guess it it would not do it for him! this trailer is a 2006 keystone challenger 29 rls. lol dan

Love it. Probably have room for ghosts, although the dogs might complain if they want to share the bed. ! Care to explain?

If the dogs complain, the ghost will make them deficate. Usually right beside the bed, so you step into it when you wake up. Thats a favorite trick. They know where your first step will be.

Cats couldn't care less. Nothing upsets a cat. Now that Parrot...that could be a real problem. They will poop anywhere. So the ghost finds other things to make the parrot a problem. But they love parrots. They are great fun for ghosts. Usually make them speak the unspeakable, at the worst time. Especially, when the mother in law, or grandmother visits.

Or when the DH screws up. Which is usually caused by the ghost, in the first place. The ghost also enjoys pouring beer down the DH's throat. And then watching the fun. Wetting the bed is a favorite. This actually rivals the parrot fun.

Another good thing about a ghost, they have no weight. So you do not need to upgrade your tow vehicle.

Exercise my ghost? Don't even have the energy left over to exercise myself. Maybe the ghost can exercise me?

Ghosts cannot help you excercise. They just enjoy making you sweat. Humans call them hot flashes. Those enlightened humans call them power surges.

This is one of the best threads I've seen in a long time! I love it - had my good laugh before bed! (but for the record, I do believe in ghosts!) Musn't make them angry!
