I live in split level house that was renovated. In the previous attic - now master bedroom floor that has my bedroom on it is a big hall closet at 3 o'clock, my "studio" door at 12 o'clock and my bedroom door at 9 o'clock. So that means my bedroom door faces the big hall closet. When you walk into my bedroom there is a short hallway with closets on both sides and a bathroom before it opens up to the bedroom area.
A few nights ago I woke up at 4AM and saw a light coming into my room. Thinking the husband had gone down stairs for something I got out of bed to make sure all was okay. I faced the door to my bedroom and saw a bright light outlining the closet. Rays of whiteness were shining out around both doors of the closet and I was viewing it from down the short hallway of my bedroom. It looked heavenly. I realized that someone had put on the closet light in the hallway. I turned off the light and wondering who would have done that, since in the 8 years that my bedroom has been in the attic that hasn't happened, I fell back to sleep.
In the morning I mentioned the closet light to the husband and he said "That's the fourth time this week that light has been on!"
After dad's attempted and failed catherization, dad, knowing his time was limited, smiled and said he was looking forward to seeing mom again, and he and lil sis and I talked about the ways that dad has known mom is still around him. (Lights going on or off, papers pushed off tables, etc..) Lil sis and I asked dad if he was going to haunt us and he said he was going to turn on our closet lights and play with our doors.
Hi daddy!
wow. that kind of creeped me out. i think it's great that your dad's still around in a way. and the grandma is too with the tv thing. but i dont know it gives me the shivers. i guess b/c there are some people you want to stick around and some you don't the thought of the ones you dont weirds me out.
but enough about me.
i'm glad dad's still around and that it makes you happy
