Sigrun & Canaan
Peacefully at home is only as peaceful as Orange County allows it to be, but I understand how you feel. This is actually the first 'holiday season' I've had anyone at all to consider spending the time with. It's an interesting adjustment.
I understand. The dreams have actually affected me in some very real and unsettling ways, though luckily enough I've managed to keep myself employed. I also have nothing awaiting me for anyone to take away, however. You need to ensure your future self is taken care of above anything else.
