An Introvert's Conundrum

“Let’s have a party- it will be fun! You don’t turn 60 every day- It’s a milestone!” Words told to my husband about his upcoming Birthday. He acquiesced, so… I invited everyone we knew, Secured the venue, Started the lists… Energized by this looming event. The RSVPs started rolling in Including the ones from those we were sure wouldn’t come! The week of the party the Nightmares began- Wave after wave of them invading my sleep… Depicting ridiculously insane scenarios and Setting off anxieties that seemed to stick up their heads whack-a mole- style. A few cancellations came in…. And I’m starting to wish I was one of them!
