*Bring something home from the get-a-away so there is diversion/distraction when you walk in the door the first time. Something that needs to be eaten quickly, a puppy or kitten, a bird or turtle, something to plug in and do immediately ~~~ ease them into the space with a distraction.
If you don't already have a pet in your home SP, and are open to the idea, I think a new puppy or kitten is a great idea.
