Much support, Arfie. It is not easy to be the rock when we feel like water. Whatever cPTSD erupts at you, we are here praying for you and with you.

Love and support Alfie. I know you must have such mixed emotions at this time. Sending peace and love to you and your family.

Sending Love and support. You are allowed to grieve too, or let cPTSD bubble up and call it grieving. Many warm hugs. My spirit is with you sending support whenever you need it.

Many hugs Arfie. A difficult time indeed. You are entitled to your feelings, and can't just, or be expected, to completely put them on the back burner all the time. I love Leo's comment, about always being the rock but feel like water. I hope yours soon becomes calming waters.

Caring and supportive (((hugs))) xxx

I am so very sorry sweetie... You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers....xoxo

Thanks guys. It has been a blessedly peaceful morning. Hubs has been under constant fire since August 1st when his father fell and broke his hip. The domestic drama has been intense enough to make going back to his middle management stresses feel like, "Time off." A restful morning was wa-a-ay over due.

I am hypo-manic and it sure feels great to have a constructive channel. Nurses are not trained for housekeeping and the house sure shows it. Don't know what happened to the housekeeper. The channel for my hypo-mania is simply clearing functional space. It has been a goodly while since there has been room to set a drink between the paper flowers, nick knacks and clutter. I have needed a crow bar to get some of the nick knacks out of the places they have occupied since long before my grandkids were born.

Yup, hubs and I are both glad my support dog is here. Emotional support sorely needed on levels the platitudes can't reach. I am really proud of how well her training is holding up in the chaos. The nurses traumatized her the last time she was here as a young dog and she has been spending most of her time in her kennel. She thinks having her own bed puts the woof in the road trip. It is her guaranteed safe place that even smells like home. Add bone and zip the kennel door to keep her feeling safe from the less friendly strangers.

I am gonna try for a nap now, sympathizers permitting.

Tomorrow starts the dress up portion of the drama. Believe it or not, I even had proper color clothing in my closet. Don't know what fashion season it is from, but. . . Getting the color right is proper enough for this beaten crazy bitch wolf.

Have a restful nap. I'm glad you and your dog are hanging in there. I wish wellness and support to you and all your family.

Wishing for you a restorative sleep for peace of mind.
Glad to read your cleaning is for mental/physical.
