It’s been an official three weeks without any panic attacks. I’ve had a touch of nerves, but no full out panic attacks that send me to my medicine cabinet. This also means that my hands have steadied considerably. I could not have strung the two rosaries I made if my hands hadn’t been steady enough to hold the beading wire.
I have also had a week without the pain twitch in my left side. I’ve reduced my med for this from four times a day to three times a day. This means, instead of breaking my three normal meals a day up into four (since the med requires a full meal in the stomach, not just any old food), that I am now back to three.
I am working on my Christmas cards today. Not that it is difficult, I just don’t want to send out a card that is unreadable. I haven’t done any extensive handwriting in such a while, that it looks terrible. I may have to print out greetings instead, which I hate to do – so impersonal.
If you aren’t reading this post in a reader, you can see that I went with a chocolatey Christmas theme. I will be putting the other one back after the holidays.
