I DID it...

Since I have had anxiety I have had a hard time going far away from home, the most I have gone is and hour (to Cassia's town) but it was for a Church conference and somehow amidst being a wreck I did it...


Well today my Mom took all 2 Boys to Cape Cod (2 hours away) to my Grandparents graves and we had lunch, did some shopping then went to Edaville Railroad, a place where they have a Polar Express train with a TON of lights, gift shops and kiddie rides. It was a blast..


We left at 10am and just got home at 10pm... i didn't have any anxiety AT ALL... well until I got home... (go figure)


It was just great because I had a great "normal" fun day with my Boys and Mom. My only complaint was that it was SO COLD.....


Just wanted to share! It was a great Christmas thing to do with my Mom and Boys.. got us in the spirit more!

That sounds like so much fun Heather!!!! I wish we were there :) I'm the same way, if I'm busy I am okay; if my mind is busy, it is okay. It's the anticipation that kills me & drives my anxiety through the roof. I can think for hours about something & get so worked up, but once I DO IT, I am fine almost every time. Go figure! That's great about the distance,too. Keep up the good work! You have come sooooooooo far!!

Hugs, Sheri ann
