Keep Calm and Chihuahua On

We came home from Quanah with an addition to our family. Meet Fiona, a seven month old chihuahua. I've been wanting a little dog to keep me company during the day and our friend is having trouble finding a place to live with her three chihuahuas so it worked out just perfectly.  She's already helping my anxiety.  She's been so sweet and hasn't left my side. I think we enjoy each others company.

It's been a very busy week getting ready for Hanukkah and Christmas too.  Fiona has come with me to stores, to visit my grandparents and on taxi trips for the kids.  I am really enjoying her company and its funny because I have always been a big dog person - somehow she's won my heart.

Because of the busyness of this week, I have only made a few pieces and I am feeling a bit detached from my creativity.   I hope to make some new things today as tomorrow night is the first night of Hanukkah and we haven't quite decided what our day and evening holds.  I will make latkes and maybe we will play dreidel.  Tonight is my partner's office holiday party.  The gathering is being held at Dave & Busters - a place I am not too fond of (I'm really not a video game player nor an arcade fan) but at least the food is good.  

My anxiety is quite a bit better, but I am kind of in a fog.  I am thinking this may get better with time on this new medication.  It's scary really the thought of all the medications and this new one being an anti-psychotic.  I so wish I could be happy and function without medications.  I know this is not likely to ever happen but its the season for miracles, right?
