We record from Claire's hospital bed and unpack a rat scare. From wellies and curtain rods to humane traps and boundaries, we find practical ways to cope when chaos shows up.

• bedside check‑in and mood reset
• scratching sounds and sensory detail
• pumpkins, boxes, and the freeze response
• improvised plan with wellies and a curtain rod
• no rat found and what that means
• humane traps, repellents, and ethics
• clutter, ADHD, and hidden risks
• spiders, boundaries, and tolerance at home
• holiday prep, illness wobble, and gratitude
• strange Christmas memories and sign‑off mantra
