Yay for the Weekend

I had a lot of anxiety this week so I'm so happy for the weekend. I'm going to purposefully limit my activity and relax so that I'll be prepared for another onslaught of anxiety on Monday. Wishing everyone a restful weekend!

GirlinCalif, Thanks! Yeah, that's my 7lb 4 year old Maltese. I got him at a rescue when he was 2 years old and he struggles with anxiety too. We were meant to be.

May I add a reminder for the workers and human doings among us that rest is a productive activity after a long, hard drive?

Here's to hoping I manage to sneak in some rest this weekend. I **just** hate it when life interferes with my rest needs.

I got to play with a Maltese pup last night. Sweet dog. My current therapy dog is the white dog in my current avi pict. She's also sweet and wishing she was a lap dog, especially during a thunder storm. She's about 45 pounds and downright pathetic when she starts imitating lap dogs in her effort to be assured the thunder won't *get her.*

Arfie, Awww, that's too cute. A friend of mine has a big lab mix that is just like that too. He's terrified of thunder and won't leave her side.

GirlinCalif, That's actually a pic of him when he's the most anxious. We were in the car going to PetSmart and he hates car rides But for some reason, he looks super cute when he's the most anxious. It's sort of like some of us who are really good at hiding their depression or anxiety.

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.

    Reality Check

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
