Hi
I made it to the city centre with a friend..... Hooray . . .
That in itself, going with someone, was a success.
I have over many many years, although I am a very sociable person, is something, for some strange reason, I have avoided doing since I had kids, which was a very long time ago.
I make friends and then when it comes to socialising, I back out.
So, arrangements made and I stuck to them. Although, given
the opportunity I would have opted out.
Anyway, we got to shops and wondered for hours. I queued at till with no probs, no anxiety catching me up.
We sat and ate food, and I sorted waited, again, for the anxiety to bite. It didnt, I was beginning to feel cocky at this point.
I went to the loo and didnt worry about the door and the lock not being able to unopen. I wasnt searching for escape routes.
Anyway, all in all, a fantastic day and I was on such a high that I had done this. It sort of felt like some doors had been opened up again for me.
I read this back and it all souns rather silly I have got to this point that I would think of it as a success, but for me, it is.:D
