Exactly. It's the awareness. There was some stuff under some of the furniture. I can't tell how extensive it is because I can't get to the furniture and tackle it with everything I have. So today it seemed like a better idea to replace the furniture.
Sorry your T wasn't more help (or at least more sympathetic). My T does completely get the mouse thing -- we've been dealing with it on and off for over 23 years now. Of course, she thinks this is some kind of abuse trigger for me. Maybe it is. I have had recurring nightmares about them all my life. Always when I'm stressed. They are like the repository for all of the anxiety I feel. So how fabulous that they show up in my house during weeks 7 and 8 of my T being away from me. Just perfect.
I do think you handled the vomit really well. I hope your husband is better by now. Maybe we can both breathe deeply and try to move on. I'll let you know if it works for me and hope that it works for you.
