Apologies

Ouch. Well today I started to melt down at my Mother-In-Law's annual Xmas party as my anxiety snuck up and bit me in the as*.

I really, really hate it sometimes when the kids are in crowds (or areas where crowds traditionally are, such as today's nearly empty Chuck E Cheese's.)

It's crazy, so don't bother telling me what I already know. Just writing this is sending my chest into butterfly mode.

So to anyone who noticed my clenched jaw or wondered why I looked so insanely tense, or overheard the well-warranted scolding my actions brought from my wife, sorry.

All in all it was a very nice party. Really!

  1. I totally understand, when the pressure gets to me....and I'm the only one that see the pressure, I too melt down....

    My whole family knows this and some feel I'm a little nuts, oh well, live goes on...

    Many times I feel lim J. Stewart in "Its a wonderful life"  Life would be better without me...

    But then I see my grandkids, and like Mr. Stewart I realise what life is all about....

    Merry Christmas,

    Jeanne
