Social anxiety? I always thought you would be the gregarious one Grandpa! (Maybe after a glass or two of wine you can loosen up) - that is what it usually takes for me.We were invited to a party at the Rosenbergs, who took us out in their neighborhood for Christmas caroling. A couple of the neighbors were not wonderfully amused, but most took it quite well, with applause, kudos, and one mom even came out and gave us Christmas cookies until they were gone. We came back to the party house and had hot buttered rum, crab cakes, delicious cheeses, a sublime ham, a wonderful spicy sausage, and other tasty treats too numerous to mention.
I overcame my social anxiety enough to interact with people some, and Grandma later told me that I did fine, which was a relief. Afterwards, back in our own house, watching a favored show with Grandma, adult beverages, and snuggled under an afghan.
A good evening.
Merry Christmas!
