This week has been going much more smoothly. After the turmoil over the last month after the move, we finally seem to be settling in to a more balanced interaction.

I've succumbed to my type's basic escape need to dive into fantasy. I've given in and watched TV and movies and written fanfiction and all that and I'm MUCH better psychologically than I was last week, let alone last month!
It helps that at long last my husband and the guys (Darcy & Tad) are respecting my boundaries and honoring my requests for what I need to feel comfortable. We pretty much had to come to blows for them to realize that I wasn't kidding– I needed them to comply with what I was asking. It wasn't a preference thing so much as a “I'm going nuts without it” thing. A little time and space on a regular basis so I don't get too overwhelmed is not an option, especially in a new place that doesn't yet feel quite like its my home.
Almost, though. Getting closer. I do love this place. I just have a hard time believing that its actually mine. You know? Eventually I shall embrace it and internalize the change in circumstance, but its taking longer than I anticipated.
Now that we're all respecting one another more carefully, things are working better across the board. That's the point that needs to be celebrated. We can work this out with high mutual respect and clear communication.
