ok, so my vent... I feel soooooo disoriented (?) since I have been home. several times a night I wake up and haven't a clue where I am. this feeling hasn't happened since I was like 6. for a year and a half I traveled EVERY WEEK to a new city for a project I was on. not to mention all the other traveling in hte military and work and fun travel... just trying to say, travel is NOT new to me!

I keep hearing the front door opening and my Dad saying "I'm home!" he only ever visited me in this house 5 times.

I keep waking up thinking about what my son and I need to do in the morning. he's in New Mexico still.

I can't get much beyond watching Arwen and Strider playing. I feel aimless and drifty. is this part of grief? I was allowed to do active and healthy grieving for my Grandmother and Uncle, but felt so tied in knots with my Dad... is this normal?
I still have dreams of my parents. Somehow I never realize they're gone until I'm fully awake. My father died in 1967, my mother in 2000.

In time, you'll come to cherish those dreams. It will be as if somehow he's still a part of your life.

For now, it's hard. I know. You've suffered a great loss. Perhaps knowing you aren't alone will be at least a small comfort. It gets better.
