This morning I awoke to a text message from SB telling me that she was sick and therefore couldn't make our outing today. I'm not sure whether or not I buy her excuse, but it doesn't matter-- I was glad she canceled anyway. Firstly, my social anxiety spikes whenever I have plans and often when they fall through I feel relieved. Secondly, I've been really tired all week and I just want to rest. Thirdly, she wanted to see The Adjustment Bureau, which is not my type of movie. So instead of going into the city to see her I went to see The King's Speech, the movie that won Best Picture at the Oscars this year, and I am pleased with the way things turned out. I enjoyed the movie, and I didn't have to travel to go see it. It was a low-key way to spend the day.
But this evening I went into the city to follow through on my plans for dinner with my sister, A. I had been really nervous about it all day because I didn't know where we would eat and therefore I couldn't plan my meal in advance. But we had an excellent time. I considered canceling our plans because I wouldn't be in the city, but I decided to go through with it and I'm glad I did.
Although, now I am really nervous about what the scale will say tomorrow. Sigh.

Can relate to the social anxiety..Just gave some advice to my 23 yr. old daughter today to keep fighting it and never completely stop accepting invitations because someday the invites will stop and then you will have more difficulty venturing out alone among strangers like I do.
God Bless,

NOS a few people at my work place have seen the movie The King's Speech and said it was wonderful. I am glad you enjoyed it as well. Also, glad you went through with your plans to see you sister.
Hopefully you can catch up on some more sleep this weekend. ((((NOSSY))))
I get social anxiety too going out with friends and there is some relief when I don't have to go.
I'm glad you had a good time with your sister.
How about not giving yourself a chance to potentially be upset by the number on the scale and not weigh yourself?
Take care,
