Hello.
Here are five things this week.
1. These posters.
My dad sent me these this week. They were a nice surprise and it gets us excited even more for our trip coming up in April to see the total solar eclipse in Arkansas.
2. These drinks.
Skylar and I rode the city transit bus to Starbuck's to get drinks for us all. My go-to drink is always a vanilla chai latte, Skylar's is white hot chocolate, and Jeff's is a café mocha.
3. This doggy.
The best boy.
4. These decorations.
From this point forward, my new favorite Halloween decorations are of skeletons doing regular house and yard work. Check out the one on the left head down in the flower garden.
5. This sign.
As the winter weather changes, be sure to stay hydrated. This sign was at Target and I definitely agree with it.
One last thing:
Anxiety comes in different forms. Sometimes it's subtle and creeps up on you and other times it comes in a full on panic attack. This week it hit me hard on the way home. I don't know what triggered it, but it came in the form of hives on my neck and chest. It only lasted about an hour, but writing down any triggers from the day that could have caused it has helped me identify certain things that could be the cause. I keep a journal of these moments, symptoms, and triggers and talk to my therapist about them. It helps to be able to have some control over my mental health issues.
