So I finally made a friend out here in the West. We’ve only hung once but we really clicked and I like her alot. She has a yound daughter and we’re all gonna go to Misquamicut for the day Thursday. Anyhow, I just came up with the idea to have a Martha Stewartesque dinner with Shannon, her BF, and Sam (her daughter). I’m gonna get planning right away!

How I did it: We decided in mid-june that we wanted to have a summer party. The first thing I did was try to establish a date. I texted a few of my good friends to see if they could make it. Everyone was open, so our date was a go. We just built from there. I made the invitations out of decorative paper I bought at staples and I printed them on the computer. I created an rsvp list so we could keep track of who was coming and what they were bringing. We… Read how I did it…
I really, really want to go this summer. I lost my job so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to afford it. I will probably be unable to stay over night. It is too expensive. I’m going to make a day out of it. I’ll have to pay for gas, parking, the ferry, and lunch. It shouldn’t be too bad. I’m going to start planning now so I don’t put it on the back burner and forget about it.
I’ve made improvement in this area, but it’s still very difficult. Even when I remind myself to be myself, I misrepresent as a reflex. I suppose I am not comfortable with myself, therefore pretend I am someone else. I recently heard the statement “own your truth”. I really want to own mine, good or bad, because it makes me who I am. I need to like who I am and if there are things I don’t like then I need to work on changing them.
