Hola, Amigos!

 It is literally freezing cold here and I’m snuggled in blankets with coffee, flannel jammis and fuzzy socks! Picture me a happy as a clam!

I’ve been getting a lot of questions about my new medication, that I call “ amnesia candy,” and I can say that after only a couple of weeks I am having many less therapy dreams and because I accidentally took one for the team, I forgot to take it one night and spent every sleeping moment in an emotional battle with, well, all the people. I was even blessed with new dreams so that was fun. My conclusion is that it is working and I did not fully realize just how bad it’s been.

We had the company Christmas dinner last week and as the definition of an introvert I was anxious. Shocked? But!!! I had the best time!!! The restaurant was beautiful. We had 30 people, the three partners and their spouses sat at the front but it didn’t feel like it was hard to talk to people at the other end and occasionally we even called down to the other end on the phone. I did end up have the most adorable guy across from me and we had a very similar sense of humor so we laughed a lot. 

I wore a dress with the base color being dark blue but with what looked like tiny gold champagne bubbles all over it. The sleeves were puffy on the upper arm but tight from the elbow down to the wrist.  A belt that’s intended to be for a wedding dress with white and gold crystals all along the front and it was gorgeous. I opted for black tights and black suede booties, my hair up was up in a messy bun, subtle makeup with plum lipstick and champagne colored shimmering eye shadow, enough to sparkle nicely in the lighting, a gold bead and pearl necklace and Jo Malone’s Jasmine Sambac and Marigold perfume. In short, I loved loved the look!!! 

I have three more dresses coming up to wear Christmas Eve, Christmas and New Years’s Eve. I love dressing up and feeling like pretty princess ☺️

Aside from that. I’m not sure how often I talk about it but because I’m chronically anemic, I crave ice like a drug. Seriously, it’s very important that I have ice! I can eat 25 lbs of ice in 3 days, sometimes two days! There is good ice and bad ice. Bad ice isn’t soft, is large and is clear. Good ice is pellets like Sonic or a hospital. So, to keep up with my ice chewing, like an ice beaver over here, we purchased an ice machine that makes and store up to 45 lbs. BEST PURCHASE EVER! 10/10 would recommend for us anemic ice addicted people!! Just do it. 

Loved the pics! Thank you 😊
