Hi Irene,
Thanks for thinking of me. You wont believe my Chicago trip.......
As you remember, I was going on a shopping trip with 3 other women for a girls get a way, last Sat. By Wed one of them cancelled. And by Friday the rest of them cancelled. There was no talking them into going, no matter how hard I tried. So.........
Sat morning I got up and started my house wife routine....and just could not do it. So.............
I hit the road. Took an over nite bag and just hit the road, not knowing where I was going or where I would end up. That feeling was awesome!!
Stopped an hr outside of town, and shopped a bit. Drove another hr and a half and stopped for gas. Asked the gas person if there was a train to Chicago anywhere close by, and there was.
20 minutes later I was on a train to Chicago. 1 1/2 hrs later I was in Chicago, alone. Took a taxi to a hotel, hoping they had a room, which they did, and away I went on my shopping trip on Magnificiant Mile.
It was awesome. I spent the nite in a nice downtown hotel, stayed up as late as I wanted, and went shopping some more on Sunday. Was home by 6pm Sunday evening.
It was a much better get away than it would have been with the girls. Sometimes life turns out that way.
So that was my trip. So much for being so concerned about social anxiety.
Thanks for thinking about me. ttyl
