I would be grateful if the Irish goodbye was more acceptable.

Seeing my gp every 6 months, rather than every 3 months, geez! On the quarterly schedule, my battery doesnt even have time to recharge before it has to switch to backup. Semiannual is much more my speed.
In summation - twice a year, good. Twice a day, insanity! |

My H will do this. Though he's Irish, so I think he can get away with it more! I tend to feel guilty if we do that. And it wouldn't work with my family gatherings. We all need to hug good-bye and stuff. I tend to just sort of wave to his family (well, aside from his one uncle, who's a hugger). |

Lost, I try to only make one appointment in a day. I've actually learned to like going out and seeing the people I know (even doctors). I'll even try to go with H when he picks up food or something just to get out of the house. But doing two things (anything) in a day is overwhelming for me. And that a normal day when I'm feeling okay. Like today, 2 of my girls have grooming appointments, I have a phone call with L between drop off and pickup, I have to get groceries delivered and I have to do laundry. Today is overwhelming for me. So yes, I think it's normal to only be able to handle one social event a day especially when you're dealing with so much. Like LT's cartoon, it's okay to check out.
