This is true, it happened to me...

The Balloon Story

It was my kids birthday and we had bought a lot of balloons, some we blew up, some where filled with helium,  well the party went as usual for birthday parties, lots of cake, ice cream, punch and presents.  Well her birthday is in March so we decided at the end of the party to let the balloons "fly in the wind" lol.  I just didn't want to keep them and she thought it was cool the way the wind blew them away.  Well she decided to keep the main helium filled balloon, OK, no problem, all the others where gone and it would be cute to keep folded up in her baby book after it deflated. 

Later that night after the kids are in bed asleep and I've finished cleaning up after the party and have the house back to normal, I decide to go to bed.  Nothing unusual yet right?  Nope nothing, everything is ordinary.  OK the balloon is floating in the living room, Mike is on the couch watching TV, still nothing unusual, lol, so I kiss him goodnight and I'm off to bed. 

A few minutes after I go to bed I get this weird feeling so I open my eyes, well the balloon is in the doorway of my bedroom, so I'm like OK, the ceiling fan has blown it down the hall.  No big deal, so I close my eyes again and a few moments later I get that feeling again.  I open my eyes and the balloon  is floating face level with me right at my head!   Ok this is a helium filled balloon, it should have been floating at the ceiling right!

Want to know what I did?

I got out of bed, grabbed that possessed balloon, walked out of the bedroom, down the hall, into the living room, into the kitchen, and out the front door and released it with the others!

Ever since then, I will not allow helium filled balloons in my house!
