Tis the season.
Invites for parties are beginning to come in and my anxiety is going up with the decisions to attend or not.
Almost every other year James and I loved going, but now this year we have one of two options.
Option 1: Fake it till ya make it.
That includes plastering on a face and smile, ugly christmas sweater or what have you, and getting a present for the host.
Sadly I've become so good at this I don't know what's real or what's fake anymore...
Option 2: Be honest with myself and stay home because honestly, I don't want to pretend to be happy and ruin someone else's party...
Seeing other peoples kids dressed up all fancy and hearing about what they accomplished this year is too much to handle.
Emotionally, mentally and physically, this is exhausting.
They say it "gets easier" with time....
I'm still waiting for it to do so...
