Hi again all.  @Mazarita @outlander @Exoplanet @CheerBear @Teej and anyone else around.

@CheerBear sending you wishes for strength and patience today as you wait to hear how surgery for your ill one goes.  Sorry to hear things took a turn for the worse.  I also have delayed emotions that come out all at once quite often.  Hope today gets easier for you as it progresses.

@Exoplanet I love and echo your thoughtful words to @Mazarita.

Thinking of you today @Mazarita and hoping you're feeling a bit better by now and able to get your creative on today.

Hoping today goes better than expected for you @Teej with hosting the 21st.  Sounds like a hectic one for you.  Stay strong.  And that the after effects of the dream have worn off.  I know that feeling well.  Waking up feeling frantic and lots of emotions.  My psychologist asked me to make a note about the dreams I've been having but I haven't done it yet. Not sure why.

Your dream made me remember I used to have a t-shirt with one of those red-head models on it that said "Oh my god I left the baby on the bus!".

I'm just back from a traumatic time at the denture clinic.  I burst into tears when they started working in my mouth making the molds for new dentures.  Details of the DV that cost me the last of my own teeth came flooding up.  The nurse was really kind, telling me I was safe and that they were there to help me, but I have an emotional hangover from it now.  I think it was partly a delayed reaction from the EMDR session on Wednesday, when we focussed on that event.  My psychologist gave me her mobile number but I haven't used it.  I had a support worker with me and told her what was going on so after the ap't we went and sat at the beach for half an hour before coming home.  Might curl up in a ball for a while after posting this.

Sending love to all here and wishes for things to even out for those of you having a rough time.
