So I am not sure if I have abilities others don't or if I am more sensitive than the average person,
Background, I grew up in a haunted house but never experienced anything really outside of feeling like someone may be watching me, I had heard from other family what they had experienced when I was too young to remember.
As I got older I have always been different from most, however I have some mental issues, bipolar,ptsd,anxiety,addiction
I've always had vary vivid dreams from a young age, as I've gotten older I was very depressed and stuck to myself being homeschooled after the fith grade, I got into drugs at 17 and became addicted to various substances plus my mental illness went wild, however I no longer take substances outside of cannabis and mushrooms. I'm also as stable as I can been on medications.
As I moved out of the house at 13 to another I would get nightmares being in the old house and I would be getting tormented by spirits, It started as just a haunted house trying to scare me, then I got mad because of the occurrence and would be in a vivid dream taunting it, never really winning it would laugh or only show itself when it wanted to not me.
In my dreams I will see my loved ones like normal but be able to tell that isn't them and will notice and then my dreams get weird and I either wake up or try to get away, I'm aware now and don't get them as often but it was terrifying at a point.
I got into reading the satanic bible, lucifieran bible and necronomicon, at one point, during this I had a vivid dream I wasn't on this planet and went to a place that was dark with odd terain and glowing green water, however I had a dream I was going into a church and instead of a normal pastor it was a demonic one and had a cloak over his face , I had a rosary with a bone and gave it to him, accepting that I don't have power in my dreams and am sorry for taunting the spirits in my reoccurring nightmares, it went down to know I only have them rarely and know what's going on everytime it happens again.
During my addictions I have experienced sleep paralysis and it was terrifying, like a demonic smoke figure in a cloak looking at me feeding of the fear,
I have had my aunt pass and visit me in my dreams, I have had my grandpa pass and visit me in my dreams, I didn't get to say goodbye, and got closure in my dream, I woke up feeling like the hug was real.
I knew the night before my grandpa passed he was going to had a gut feeling but I decided not to follow that instinct, next morning I woke up to uncle banging the door however my dream was a old guy in a room that didn't have anything, just sitting infront of me no conversation, woke up and my grandpa was gone, feel it was him but didn't wanna show me it was him yet.
Anymore my nightmares if I have them are usually still in the old house and has to do with a spirit trying to take the shape of my loved ones, I have never seen the spirit responsible, only felt it in my dreams and heard laughs when I try to be more powerful than it.
Not super long ago I had a dream a tornado was coming for me at my current house, we had stroms not super long after and while it wasn't my house it hit 30 minutes away from me and my girlfriends step dads house got hit.
I feel like I am sensitive to energy, I can sense the feelings of being watched at times, getting goosebumps and hair standing up not due to the cold but somthing around, especially when I talk to people or give them tarot card readings, I can end up with my hairs standing or goosebumps if the conversation felt like it resonates with me.
I have an amazing relationship with my girlfriend, we I belive are twin flames, so similar, almost like we can read eachothers minds at times and say the same things at the same time often or can guess what she's about to say at times, but I also feel whenever her energy shifts and so does she if mine shifts.
I can sense if a person is good or bad, I can also at times sense somthing bad a long time in advance before it actually happens. Unfortunately.
One of the best new experiences I have had was taking mushrooms with my girlfriend for healing, I do it somewhat often, helped with grief , addictions, mental health, spirituality,
It brings us closer together and helps us both to heal, I didn't know it was possible but we managed to be able to use our energy on eachother while tripping and have what feels like full on sex without any touching involved, it can last for a long time too, this has happened the last 3-4 times we have tripped once we discovered how to tap into each other's minds. It's almost better than having actual sex, I feel like we leave our bodies and full on merge together as one during this time.
Now this is were it gets weird , a few days back we went to a place in amish country and once inside I noticed it felt off, however to not waste money and with everyone posting such good reviews figured we would stay and take mushrooms for healing as we do about once every month - 2 months,
I had the feeling in this house that the loft and basement were bad places to be, like being watched and feeling like there was somthing in this house, not sure what but something the first floor felt the best but still uneasy,
We had grabbed a clock from downstairs, plugged things into this one outlet next to the stairs and clock prior to taking mushrooms, they were charging, clock worked. Outlet worked, downstairs had a weird sad vibe to it ,weird musty smell also Sulphur smells randomly and even the water smelled like Sulphur there was a hornet in the toilet when we got there and had to flush it, also was 2 stains on the cieling in basement, not sure if it was water leak or if someone may have passed in the house and it soaked thru the ceiling of basement.
We wanted to paint eachother as we took the mushrooms, we did this until they started to kick in and once they kicked in we went and started fear and loathing in lost vegas, once I started getting closed eye visuals and working on my innerwork, my girlfriend felt like she wanted to go downstairs to lay in bed,
We stayed in bed holding eachother , bonding, eventually tuning into eachothers energy having sex without actually having it, then we couldn't hold back anymore and actually had sex, however we stayed down there until the trip wore off, it was about 3 am and everything switched on us.
She was feeling really sad and like she wanted to leave this place, I felt like I was being watched down there and somthing bad had happened in the past, I went to go upstairs was kinda afraid to alone but eventually went upstairs because she wouldn't at the time, tried to charge my phone and the outlet and clock didn't work anymore, I had been talking about leaving the house because she was feeling targeted and I felt like it didn't like either of us but like it wanted to feed off her if she went to sleep.
We went upstairs at a point and when I was asking if there were spirit's in the house and that if so I meant no disrespect and will only be staying until we could leave in the morning safely, as I would talk about the spirits seemed like my girlfriend would feel sick, same as being in the bed, very sad while downstairs.
I opened a bible and it was weird it didn't even feel like real paper , it also was moving by itself somewhat like working against me or moving for me to point out things, the clock on the wall was moving way faster than normal after this,
I tried getting her to leave , I didn't want to stay anylonger but knew we had to wait until sunlight atleast, she fell asleep and I was sitting next to her in this erie basement, had to turn the fan on because felt like if it was quiet I would loose it, what's not normal is the fact that she went to sleep and didn't really move, make sounds or anything like usual. I felt like I could hear people upstairs as she was asleep, almost like music was playing or a man signing and it was on repeat it would come and go, such low volume but also loud , the fan in the mix didn't help but I didn't wanna hear it anylouder.
I ended up trying to sleep and kinda did for a few hours but no dream I was hoping I would have a vivid dream of what happened in this house.
In the morning got our stuff packed up and left, before leaving I had used a ghost box. Told the spirit we were about to leave and as my girlfriend was going to the car it talked, then when she came back inside I left the ghostbox going and it talked while we were both there. I told it that we are leaving and this is your house but you are not welcome to come with us. Right as I opened the door I got a whiff of sulphur and as we left the house sulphur smell followed for a while.
Went to a shop got sage, used it before we got home, then yesterday unpacked from our trip and I made the joke about hopefully nothing came back with us from there. I went fishing and used the scissors from the house, i forgot to put them back so I have them. I saged our room, bags, clothes and once I found it left it outside in our burn barrel, didn't wanna risk it being in the house.
Last night we should have gotten good rest tho and we did not so I wonder if it had to do with those scissors coming from that house. 🤔
Anyways, long story but honest opinion would be helpful and on top of that if theres a way to strengthen my senses and all that would love to know!

Hey everyone
I’m years out from my undergrad/masters, currently working in healthcare-allied health, PT. Finding it hard to increase my score and figure out good strategies for HOW to review alllllll the content as well as getting a good amount of practice in. P/s, CARS are my strong areas. Struggling with c/p and b/b. I work full time managing my own caseload and two rehab clinics so studying for hours and hours a day is not feasible. I gotta figure out an efficient way to get this done. My GPA is strong, but finding out HOW to study when it can’t be the only thing I focus on is tough.
Any advice or guidance would be appreciated. Especially from those who’ve done it!
Thank you in advance!

Basically I went to a shop for some brake work, and there was a miscommunication between the managers quote and my expectations for a brake flush. I just wanted a brake flush (108$) but the shop wanted to add a mandatory inspection (138$) since I told them the pedal was soft (anyone who knows cars would know after a flush, they would drive the car and let me know if the pedal is firm again). Later on the manager told me the total was 300$ (no flush was provided but apparently an "inspection" was). I politely informed him I never approved of the inspection, and I understand the impression that my issue would be answered after the post brake fluid flush test drive. After some back and forth I straight up told the manager "it's convenient how you hear things which benefit your business but not the customer" a little tongue in check joke. He took offense to that and after some arguing he told me to leave, how he didn't need my money and how he doesn't want my business. Before I left i entered the business to pay but the manager went to the back immediately. I waited in the parking lot for a couple of minutes before leaving, but was not approached by anyone so I left. Once I got home, I left a scathing Google review. I just let everything be known and left it at that
Here's the review:
"Things have changed since Charles was around. Damn shame. The current manager has poor customer skills if he gets offended by the statement "it's convenient how you hear what benefits your business but not the customer". All over the manager not quoting additional costs and fees associated with a brake fluid flush. 108$ brake fluid flush but it's mandatory that you have to pay 138$ for the inspection. So the fluid flush is actually close to 300$ with all fees. You have to make sure the car works perfectly after a flush and the post service drive and inspection should be included in the 108$ or the service of the fluid flush should have it incorporated from the start. Very predatory and not at all how this shop used to operate in decades past.
And the odds are the manager can't even accept his mistake and will scream like a little toddler as his customers. You can easily bet the manager is going to respond with a long winded statement to this review about how he's never in the wrong and how he's always in the right. It's easy to accuse your customers of always being right, when the responses to Google reviews shows an immature manager incapable of accepting that there was a miscommunication and to express how that won't happen in the future.
Do better or be better but acting sensitive over a factual statement shows how weak this business has become over the years.
Edit: 94$ for a brake fluid flush at AG, and 108$ at RG It's a sad day when the dealership is cheaper than Rg.
Edit: Jeff the manager called and threatened to call the cops on me if I don't take down the review for not paying for the inspection. The manager Jeff shouted over 2 times to get out of his office and not to pay and how he doesn't need my money. I was sitting in the parking lot for 5 minutes before I left and was not once approached by Jeff to pay. If he's threatening me like this, this is a poor taste in how this business operates."
(Names edited for privacy)
The second edit was done after the threatening phone call. Other than filing harassment charges on the business, is there anything I can do? Should I be worried about the business calling the cops on me? I tried to pay but the business owner blew me off the day of the incident and based on his word I left. If I have to pay, he's getting pennies.

Hi all
Looking for some travel tips as our family will be traveling to Seoul at the end of August before heading to China.
We'll be in Seoul from the 24-30.
Our child will be around 9 months old, and we were only planning on bringing the stroller with us (it's an Uppababy Vista). Not sure if we should also bring his car seat. In regards to getting around, we were thinking of just getting an Ubehiring a driver to get to the little areas we wanted to check out as my MIL does not want to take the public transit at all. I've tried to convince her that the transit is safe, but she's been too wary about it (it's not a battle I would like to choose with my MIL).
We're planning on staying at the Conrad Seoul as it's one of the few that has the requirements for my MIL (she wants all of us to stay together in the room or a place with adjoining rooms).
Our rough itinerary current looks like this:
24 - grab a quick bite around the hotel and check out Hyundai Seoul / settle in to our hotel
25 - Dongdaemin Design Plaza / meat market or the seafood market
26 - Bukchon Hanok Village and maybe one or 2 of the palaces / Myeondong towards the evening/night
27 - Seoul Tower / Itaewon area
28 - Hongdae area
29 - Gangnam area
30 - explore near the hotel again, pack up, and head to the airport early
With our son being so young, we've decided not to go to Lotte World since he won't remember much.
Does anyone have any recommendations of little communities that we should definitely check out? My friends told me to check out places near the different universities for different vibes.
Does anyone have recommendations for private drivers? I know Uber works there (it calls some sort of taxi that's affiliated, which works for us). Do you know if we need to bring our car seat for the taxis?
Do you think we should purchase a travel stroller vs bringing our current one due to size?
Does anyone have any recommendations for other hotels with adjoining rooms or large enough to fit 2 double beds? I've tried to search and the very few that popped up with adjoining rooms were all sold out or I've emailed the hotel directly and they've advised that they don't have adjoining rooms (contrary to what it states on Google reviews/Tripadvisor).
Does anyone have tips for buying baby food/diapers? Should we just pick them up at a 711 or would it be better to stop by a grocery store?
Thank you!

There was a theft at my place of work... Again. It's a near-daily occurrence with many repeat offenders. The cops were called as it was happening and given updates on where the robbers were heading once they left.
5 - 10 minutes later, a bunch of patrol cars show up and patrol the area. At this point, the robbers would've already been several blocks away, so what does the SPS do? They have 4 SUVs do 4 - 5 laps of the block all in a line, like they're doing the Conga, before buggering off.
At one point, there was 6 or 7 police cruisers. They could've split up (they did initially to check nearby parking lots, but that was it), or at least check in with the store to review camera footage of the suspects and make sure everyone's okay, but nah. Just drive around in circles, that'll catch them.
I hope they did more than what I was able to see, but when you see the same 4 SUVs driving past the store for the fourth time in 10 minutes, you start to feel a little disappointed that they're not actually going to catch anyone... Again...

🔥 Hey everyone, here’s my rundown on the 10 things restaurants should totally avoid when picking out a POS system – because, you know, who wants to screw up their business with a bad decision, right?

1. Forgetting About Reviews – Always read reviews. If everyone says it’s a nightmare, it probably is. Unless they’re all from competitors – then buy two.
2. Ignoring Integration – Don’t pick a POS that doesn’t play nice with your other tech. It’s like inviting someone to a party who doesn’t get along with anyone else there. Chaos.
3. Skimping on Features – Going for a bare-bones system? That’s like buying a car that doesn’t have a reverse gear. Sure, it drives, but where are you really going with that?
4. Overcomplicating Things – If it needs a Ph.D. to operate, skip it. Your staff didn’t sign up to launch rockets; they just want to serve some good food.
5. Forgetting About Support – A POS without solid support is like a parachute that might open. Might not. Do you really want to take that plunge?
6. Paying Too Much – Don’t let them take you for a ride. Expensive doesn’t always mean better, like that $100 burger that tastes just like the one from your local diner.
7. Ignoring Security – If the system can’t protect your data, it’s like leaving your restaurant doors unlocked all night. Who would do that, right?
8. Forgetting Scalability – Choosing a system that can’t grow with you is like teaching a kid to ride a bike and then realizing it’s a unicycle. Not helpful.
9. Bad User Interface – If your grandma can’t figure it out, it’s too complicated. Your POS should be simpler than making toast.
10. Ignoring Hardware Compatibility – Make sure that shiny new system works with what you already own. You don't want to replace all your spoons just because you got new forks.

and you don’t want to end up with a lemon! 🍋👀

Can any high scorers help me out
Keep getting 127 on C/P & B/B for FL 1,2. Finished section bank, Bio 1/2, Chem, and Phys. Planning on doing a 2nd attempt on the questions I got wrong. I’ve thoroughly reviewed my FL. Average on AAMC qpacks are 75~80%
CARS is around 125 and I started my 2nd attempt on diagnostic. Planning on doing a 2nd attempt on CARS 1 &2. This is the weakest part of my scores
P/S went from 126 to 128 on FL 2 after doing Pankow Anki. Missed 8 questions compared to 16 on FL 1
Sample was 508, which is 505 (subtract 3 pt)
Plan on doing FL 3, 4, and scored every 3 days
Testing next Friday 😬😬 and I’d really like to get past 510 😭

…it still needs work. Was S rated when I had my first race tonight, clean race and I went straight into the next. Some idiot didn’t move on the line so I had to take a swerve, slight side swipe on the stationary car - 2.5s pen.
Annoying but hey ho. Finished thr race with no more pens and….drum roll….I’m now fucking E rated!?
Whilst I accept they said the correction to the new format happened after the first race, I can’t see how it dumped me down so far from S that a 2.5s pen makes me an E?
I’m going to get murdered with all the other E’s, nice knowing you
Edit - 1 clean race, back to A. 🤷‍♂️

I was a little hesitant as I have read reviews about bugs in the Lyriq. Then again, the extremely happy or upset folks are usually most likely to post. I took the plunge two weeks ago. Just want to say I LOVE this car. Think I like it better than my previous Escalade. I can’t stop laughing when I pass a gas station. Highly recommend getting a Lyriq!

Recently I posted about trying to avoid individual encosures. The drive can come loose inside if you move it in/out of a storage box, they can overheat badly if the fan stops working, etc.
(https://www.reddit.com/DataHoardecomments/1cq41rj/ive\_had\_it\_with\_individual\_external\_enclosures/) I wanted to use sata to usb adapters with an open frame because it would be easier to add drives (while enclosures have a max number of slots and you have to buy a larger enclosure if you need more).
This was met with people saying that is the worst way to do it and that they have a high chance of errors, random disconnects, and shared bandwith. And instead I should get a 4 slot enclosure. But I've read the reviews on the models that people suggested.... and they all seem to have those same problems.
Here is a thread from 3 years ago where people are talking about multi-slot enclosures corrupting drives. (https://www.reddit.com/DataHoardecomments/oty6em/any\_recommendations\_for\_a\_simple\_nonraid\_4\_bay\_35/)
A couple comments did mention that esata seems to be more reliable than usb. But I wanted to get more opinions - can usb multi-slot enclosures be reliable? I don't want to do raid. I just want to sync the same files across 2 drives for media library, and 2 more drives for personal files. I will just be tranferring 10 gigs or so per month to one drive, then copying to the twin, then verifying the data.
Should I give up on enclosures? Or do I just need to buy a good usb cable to prevent random disconnects? If enclosures can't be reliable for important data, should I set up a server and then transfer over the local network? I'm open to esata but I only have a regular sata port on the motherboard, so I would need a pcie adapter.
Thanks for reading.

Hey folks - currently doing a sit where the dates agreed upon on the website has us ending the sit on Thursday, May 16.
I met with the HO a few days before we started the sit and he mentioned that due to a change with his work schedule, he’s coming back a day early (May 15). Now, I mentioned we had already booked our return flight on May 16 as we thought that was what was agreed upon, although he said that he set the end date as “flexible” on the website (I don’t see this anywhere at all)…
Sooo. He says that “let me know if you find anything reasonable. Otherwise I can try to crash a friend’s place for the night.”
Not sure how to perceive this. It’s either we pay $200 for an Airbnb in the area or ask if it’s possible for him to crash at his friends. Just don’t want to risk potentially getting a bad review. Thoughts? What would you do in this situation?!

Went to a shop got sage, used it before we got home, then yesterday unpacked from our trip and I made the joke about hopefully nothing came back with us from there. I went fishing and used the scissors from the house, i forgot to put them back so I have them. I saged our room, bags, clothes and once I found it left it outside in our burn barrel, didn't wanna risk it being in the house.
Last night we should have gotten good rest tho and we did not so I wonder if it had to do with those scissors coming from that house. 🤔
Anyways, long story but honest opinion would be helpful and on top of that if theres a way to strengthen my senses and all that would love to know!

So I am not sure if I have abilities others don't or if I am more sensitive than the average person,
Background, I grew up in a haunted house but never experienced anything really outside of feeling like someone may be watching me, I had heard from other family what they had experienced when I was too young to remember.
As I got older I have always been different from most, however I have some mental issues, bipolar,ptsd,anxiety,addiction
I've always had vary vivid dreams from a young age, as I've gotten older I was very depressed and stuck to myself being homeschooled after the fith grade, I got into drugs at 17 and became addicted to various substances plus my mental illness went wild, however I no longer take substances outside of cannabis and mushrooms. I'm also as stable as I can been on medications.
As I moved out of the house at 13 to another I would get nightmares being in the old house and I would be getting tormented by spirits, It started as just a haunted house trying to scare me, then I got mad because of the occurrence and would be in a vivid dream taunting it, never really winning it would laugh or only show itself when it wanted to not me.
In my dreams I will see my loved ones like normal but be able to tell that isn't them and will notice and then my dreams get weird and I either wake up or try to get away, I'm aware now and don't get them as often but it was terrifying at a point.
I got into reading the satanic bible, lucifieran bible and necronomicon, at one point, during this I had a vivid dream I wasn't on this planet and went to a place that was dark with odd terain and glowing green water, however I had a dream I was going into a church and instead of a normal pastor it was a demonic one and had a cloak over his face , I had a rosary with a bone and gave it to him, accepting that I don't have power in my dreams and am sorry for taunting the spirits in my reoccurring nightmares, it went down to know I only have them rarely and know what's going on everytime it happens again.
During my addictions I have experienced sleep paralysis and it was terrifying, like a demonic smoke figure in a cloak looking at me feeding of the fear,
I have had my aunt pass and visit me in my dreams, I have had my grandpa pass and visit me in my dreams, I didn't get to say goodbye, and got closure in my dream, I woke up feeling like the hug was real.
I knew the night before my grandpa passed he was going to had a gut feeling but I decided not to follow that instinct, next morning I woke up to uncle banging the door however my dream was a old guy in a room that didn't have anything, just sitting infront of me no conversation, woke up and my grandpa was gone, feel it was him but didn't wanna show me it was him yet.
Anymore my nightmares if I have them are usually still in the old house and has to do with a spirit trying to take the shape of my loved ones, I have never seen the spirit responsible, only felt it in my dreams and heard laughs when I try to be more powerful than it.
Not super long ago I had a dream a tornado was coming for me at my current house, we had stroms not super long after and while it wasn't my house it hit 30 minutes away from me and my girlfriends step dads house got hit.
I feel like I am sensitive to energy, I can sense the feelings of being watched at times, getting goosebumps and hair standing up not due to the cold but somthing around, especially when I talk to people or give them tarot card readings, I can end up with my hairs standing or goosebumps if the conversation felt like it resonates with me.
I have an amazing relationship with my girlfriend, we I belive are twin flames, so similar, almost like we can read eachothers minds at times and say the same things at the same time often or can guess what she's about to say at times, but I also feel whenever her energy shifts and so does she if mine shifts.
I can sense if a person is good or bad, I can also at times sense somthing bad a long time in advance before it actually happens. Unfortunately.
One of the best new experiences I have had was taking mushrooms with my girlfriend for healing, I do it somewhat often, helped with grief , addictions, mental health, spirituality,
It brings us closer together and helps us both to heal, I didn't know it was possible but we managed to be able to use our energy on eachother while tripping and have what feels like full on sex without any touching involved, it can last for a long time too, this has happened the last 3-4 times we have tripped once we discovered how to tap into each other's minds. It's almost better than having actual sex, I feel like we leave our bodies and full on merge together as one during this time.
Now this is were it gets weird , a few days back we went to a place in amish country and once inside I noticed it felt off, however to not waste money and with everyone posting such good reviews figured we would stay and take mushrooms for healing as we do about once every month - 2 months,
I had the feeling in this house that the loft and basement were bad places to be, like being watched and feeling like there was somthing in this house, not sure what but something the first floor felt the best but still uneasy,
We had grabbed a clock from downstairs, plugged things into this one outlet next to the stairs and clock prior to taking mushrooms, they were charging, clock worked. Outlet worked, downstairs had a weird sad vibe to it ,weird musty smell also Sulphur smells randomly and even the water smelled like Sulphur there was a hornet in the toilet when we got there and had to flush it, also was 2 stains on the cieling in basement, not sure if it was water leak or if someone may have passed in the house and it soaked thru the ceiling of basement.
We wanted to paint eachother as we took the mushrooms, we did this until they started to kick in and once they kicked in we went and started fear and loathing in lost vegas, once I started getting closed eye visuals and working on my innerwork, my girlfriend felt like she wanted to go downstairs to lay in bed,
We stayed in bed holding eachother , bonding, eventually tuning into eachothers energy having sex without actually having it, then we couldn't hold back anymore and actually had sex, however we stayed down there until the trip wore off, it was about 3 am and everything switched on us.
She was feeling really sad and like she wanted to leave this place, I felt like I was being watched down there and somthing bad had happened in the past, I went to go upstairs was kinda afraid to alone but eventually went upstairs because she wouldn't at the time, tried to charge my phone and the outlet and clock didn't work anymore, I had been talking about leaving the house because she was feeling targeted and I felt like it didn't like either of us but like it wanted to feed off her if she went to sleep.
We went upstairs at a point and when I was asking if there were spirit's in the house and that if so I meant no disrespect and will only be staying until we could leave in the morning safely, as I would talk about the spirits seemed like my girlfriend would feel sick, same as being in the bed, very sad while downstairs.
I opened a bible and it was weird it didn't even feel like real paper , it also was moving by itself somewhat like working against me or moving for me to point out things, the clock on the wall was moving way faster than normal after this,
I tried getting her to leave , I didn't want to stay anylonger but knew we had to wait until sunlight atleast, she fell asleep and I was sitting next to her in this erie basement, had to turn the fan on because felt like if it was quiet I would loose it, what's not normal is the fact that she went to sleep and didn't really move, make sounds or anything like usual. I felt like I could hear people upstairs as she was asleep, almost like music was playing or a man signing and it was on repeat it would come and go, such low volume but also loud , the fan in the mix didn't help but I didn't wanna hear it anylouder.
I ended up trying to sleep and kinda did for a few hours but no dream I was hoping I would have a vivid dream of what happened in this house.
In the morning got our stuff packed up and left, before leaving I had used a ghost box. Told the spirit we were about to leave and as my girlfriend was going to the car it talked, then when she came back inside I left the ghostbox going and it talked while we were both there. I told it that we are leaving and this is your house but you are not welcome to come with us. Right as I opened the door I got a whiff of sulphur and as we left the house sulphur smell followed for a while.
Went to a shop got sage, used it before we got home, then yesterday unpacked from our trip and I made the joke about hopefully nothing came back with us from there. I went fishing and used the scissors from the house, i forgot to put them back so I have them. I saged our room, bags, clothes and once I found it left it outside in our burn barrel, didn't wanna risk it being in the house.
Last night we should have gotten good rest tho and we did not so I wonder if it had to do with those scissors coming from that house. 🤔
Anyways, long story but honest opinion would be helpful and on top of that if theres a way to strengthen my senses and all that would love to know!

I was pulled over for going 62 in a 40 (was a 55mph zone changing to 40) I saw the officer and was actively slowing down as I saw him. Was surprised he clocked me going 62 but not much to argue there.
However, this was on a small two lane road heading to a small hamlet on Long Island NY. There was a landscaping truck making a wide right turn as I was slowing down. I went slightly to the left and around him to give us both space. At this point I wasn’t speeding and I already saw the officer. I barely crossed the double line but illegal regardless. This was not a busy road and no one was around - I didn’t even think twice about it. The officer then pulled me over. He gave me SIX tickets. Speeding 62 in a 40, drove across hazard marking, failed to use designated lane, improper passing, moved from lane unsafely and driving to left of pavement markings. On paper it sounds like I was driving in the wrong side of the road when the car was a few inches over the line going around. Regardless, I thought the five tickets for the same thing was excessive. I drive 15k mile a year for work and have a clean driving record atm. One speeding ticket many years ago. Was just unfamiliar with the area. This will add up to 22 points and really worried about loosing license and insurance.
I used an online service (off the record.com) to initially review my case but worried that I should have searched for a more experienced attorney etc. furthermore would it be advisable to go to court myself and explain? Also chances some of those get dismissed?

You are not recommended to try spells to bring a lover back if you are going through the following: You know that your relationship with your ex is toxic and the best painful option to take in this is to move on. It is not a good choice to be in a relationship that is un-natural, one that is built on witchcraft. The love spark as to be their at all times.
Even the most powerful love spell may not fulfill the things that are required for a real relationship to be in place. Love should be natural and if your partner looses interest in you, its better that you let them follow the heart. If one door closes, expect another open infront of you.
Therefore witchcraft or love spells should not be the ultimate solution to mending a broken heart in a relationship, one has to make love exist naturally by doing the right things to your partner, the things that will recapture the inner feelings of love and affection as you did in the start of the relationship.
Only if and when all has been tried and failed to work that one should order for my love spells that actually work, and indeed this will be the last nail in the coffin to fix your troubled relationship permanently.
