I like what you said:
'I even went so far as to go back to my chilhood days where it was safe (for me) and raised a bunch of chickens and ducks, geese, pigeons, turkeys, etc.... Same for Fran, she wants a Great Dane again, something that was important to her, safe, during the madness of her life prior to joining the Fam.'
In other words, touching back to the safe, secure memories of childhood. I know not all of us can do that since we didn't all have childhoods we like to remember, but I think it's cool you were able to. For me, part of getting in touch with sane past memories was to build a snowman. That worked really well until my brother stuffed black powder into the snowman's head & blew the head off. Then I went out and wrestled my brother into the snow, which also brought back memories.
