I awoke today at 6:30 am laying on my back. The covers were removed and my shirt lifted. It was a good position to be carried. I had this feeling that someone was still in my house. I searched for almost an hour. One of the places I checked was the garage. At one point I said, "I know you're here," and a map right in front of me fell. As I was talking, there were more sounds of movement and for one moment, I thought I saw someone in my peripheral vision. They were somewhere I couldn't get to. I was also using my pendulum and it kept telling me to crawl under something and I didn't want to go down there. 

The crawl space didn't look big enough and the floor was coated in dust. Going down there meant that I'd get my clothes dirty and I didn't like the sound of that. I feel like something or someone might have been down there though since I kept hearing sounds after I started talking. Before I started talking, the room was silent save for my own movement. Something had to have been making those other sounds. I feel like they're taunting me. I thought I'd be taken last night and I'm still here. I guess I was wrong. I have been cautious and scared of that predicament. For the past two weeks, I haven't walked outside on my own like I used to. 

I feel foolish. I should go on a walk today. At least I'm safe right now. I shouldn't let my fears control me like this. Ever since I got the news two weeks ago, I've been on guard and cautious. I guess it was all for nothing. I told two people about my fears and I was wrong. After all that, I'm still here. I should just stop. I need to focus on living in the real world not on obsessing over the possibilities. I've been so scared and for what? Nothing. There is nothing to fear. If the ones I fear don't want to come out of the darkness, then I'll live in the light.
