Three Times

I came in from work and peeled off my clothes to lie down in my bed.  I was tired, and had no problem falling off to sleep, and just as I was getting comfortable in my sleep, somebody jounced the bed, and woke me up. I looked around in my bedroom, but nobody was here.  Something jounced my bed hard enough to awaken me, and I have come to the conclusion that it doesnt want me to rest.  There was nobody in my bedroom, or should I say there was nobody that I could see. I sleep with  the lnight lamp light on at all times.

Ssomething has jounced my bed twice before to deliberatley wake me up.  I didnt pay it any attgention the first two times that it happened, but this time, it bothered me.  I know now it cannot be my imagination.  I asked myself the question, why is Reverend Leroy putting a hedge around my house.  I grabbed the pen and paper that I keep on my bed to write down dates of my dreams, as they occur.  I think something is tracking me in my own home.  The jouncing of my bed is hard enough to awaken me, and this is no concidence.

I want to move out of this house.  There is no privacy here.  I'm afraid to walk around naked in my own home.  Three times this incident has happend...Three Times.
