There's been some weirdness. I'll start with last night. The fluorescent light above my kitchen sink burned out so I bought a new one. It's one of those where you have to snap the plastic panel cover on over the bulb. Not terribly difficult and not easy to screw up. I didn't. So after a shower, I came out and immediately noticed the front door was ajar. It had been locked. I take a step toward the door and suddenly hear a racket in the kitchen. I thought maybe my partner had dropped a dish or something in the sink (he's downstairs fast asleep, by the way). I closed and locked the door and headed to the kitchen. In the sink lay the cover of the light fixture that I had securely snapped on. No logical explanation comes to mind. Freaked me out a bit.
Then there was the thing a week or so ago. In my bedroom, I have one of those small air purifiers that plugs into the wall. (I need white noise to sleep). Anyway, I've had this thing for years. I plug it in and it stays snug against the wall. It doesn't even wiggle. So I do what I always do, turn it on and get into bed. After about ten minutes, when I'm just starting to drift off, there's a loud noise that jolts me awake and scares the crap out of me. I get up and look around. On the floor, about a foot from the plug-in, lay the air purifier. No way that could have happened on its own.
I still get the thumps and creaks and footsteps off and on. And a few times in past few weeks I'd catch something out of the corner of my eye that I think is a person, but there's no one there. That's annoying. Makes me think I'm going buggy. Of course, if I actually saw a fully formed apparition right in front of me, I'd probably pee myself.
