This is a Really Real Mental Health Post.
What a difference an attitude makes.
I went and I was myself, I focused on having a good time, not on impressing anyone with my behavior. I was just me, quirky, clumsy, lovable, me.
And I had a great time.
I walked away a few different times to talk with my family via phone call and video chat. I left my anxiety behind about how that would look, I mean, I’m spending the entire holiday weekend here, it makes sense that I would need some time to talk to my family for the holiday.
I lost miserably at virtual bowling. And I mean miserably. And I let myself fall into the light natured picking on that happened because of it.
I had a great Easter dinner with a family that is graciously welcoming me to become a part of it.
The next two days are filled with more family activities before Wonder Woman and I fly back home late Tuesday night.
I am me, beautiful, wonderful, amazing me.
Lets hope I can hold this attitude for the rest of the trip!
I’m so glad it went well!
