Oh boy, Joyce, this reminds me of the time I had 4 dachshunds who knew the art of leaping onto the desk and playing havoc with my files and laptop. 🙂 Fortunately my current pet friend Miss Coco has not learned that art form. It’s amazing how little triggers can lead to anxious moments.

Thanks Summer. Knowing how to tame the beast reduces the gravity of an anxiety attack and can even mitigate the recurrence of this debilitating condition.

I can fully relate to laughing when disaster strikes, Kathleen. It’s a much better reflex action compared to crying and it does raise our vibrations allowing the Universe to give us a better deal than the one we had. I do acknowledge the gravity of the situation that you found yourself in. That would make anyone cry.

Trust that all will be well is important, Sue. Especially when you will be leaving a place that was home for so many years. There are new adventures ahead and the Unhinge is a temporary phase to a better house that will become your new home.

Absolutely, Julie. A clear mind can think for alternative solutions and even a spot of ‘outside the box’ ideas to get the job done. Thanks for adding your insights to the post!

This transition of having to find a new place to live has me unhinged a lot (to glom on to Marquita’s eloquent description). Unhinged. Scared. Resentful. And then I return to love, return to trust, cry a little, and return again.

At least there’s enough trust that I keep moving.
