    oh Kmakm, I am no psychologist, 

    But my thoughts 
    India - you love going there  so a positive
    David Beckham - supposed to be a spunk (not my type) another Positive 
    tourists trying to kill you with runaway train- Jealous because you have got David Beckham- another positive as it must mean he is a spunk to them also ;)

    Darling girl it will settle I promise you --- try to ride the wave of them and let them go each morning reflect and remember your mind is healing from the roller coaster ride from hell.

    @kmakm I think your brain is trying to tell you to become a movie scriptwriter.  Isn't it obvious?!

    @Sister I like that theory!

    My usual anxiety dreams are almost always about losing my purse/passport/wallet/mobile phone in some unknown city where I can't remember the name of the hotel I am staying in. But I woke up early this morning from an action/adventure dream a bit like @kmakm and @arpie . I love the interpretations and especially the suggestion of a hidden screenwriter at work in the unconscious. I immediately thought of a way of combining what has been going on in Howlers lately: a delegation of Howlers (in their T-Shirts of course) is on the way to a seminar/retreat somewhere in India when the train is hijacked by a bunch of unpleasant characters. Having been to hell and back already our heroines are more than able to outwit, outflank and out-talk their captors who abandon the idea of holding them for ransom and cant wait to see the back of them. I hope this doesn't seem irresponsible or irreverent, I don't mean to suggest we should take any of this lightly, but obviously there is some kind of processing going on here. I wonder if it has anything to do with the time-frame. I am just about exactly one year from surgery, others seem to be more-or-less the same. I've never read anything before about post-BC dreams.

    A tiny but significant turning-point for me today. For the first time since the day before surgery, I put the bedspread on my bed. For nine months I've been just tidying the sheets and blankets each day, because I knew I would be likely to crawl back in before the day was out. My action this morning was triggered by the fact that this week I'll be having visitors that I don't know very well. So I guess I'm back to caring what people think about my home. Baby steps.

    My most frequently-recurring horrible dream is about being late for a flight. Oddly, in the dream it's usually the fault of my ex-husband (divorced 29 years ago and now deceased). Strange what the mind does.

    It's probably time to let him go @flaneuse! Only joking.  Maybe you felt that he was holding you back in some way?

    @Flaneuse I agree, small but definitely significant. K xox

    @Sister - oh, he did! In so many ways - not just always making us late. Until after 24 years I cut free. Better and better ever since.  :)

    Work is incredibly stressful at the moment and starting to affect me outside of work. Stressed for 40 plus hours at work with no sign of it getting better, then I get home and I’m grumpy and then can sleep even more than normal. Was awake at 2.30 this morning, couldn’t stop thinking about work and when I managed to doze for about an hour at 4am I had work nightmares. I don’t know if I can’t handle the stress anymore or if I just don’t want it in my life after what I have been through. My boss relies on me a lot too so will load up the schedule when I’m there instead of spreading it out during the whole week. Already grumpy as today is another stressful day  :s
