today is the ice cream social at my boys' school and I am totally fretting to go. I don't do well in crowds. I tend to want to hide myself in a shell. I do way better on a one on one basis, but crowds and new situations - YIKES.....I need to get myself pumped up, but I really do not want to attend.

Oh I hear you!!! I have major crowd and new situation phobia and it IS really hard. I never know what to do, say, ...and I always feel awkward and get real quiet. Just know that you are NOT alone in this! With kids though we're always forced into these types of situations and I NEVER want to go. I do though and I don't always have a great time and am quiet and sometimes seemingly univolved, but that's ok and "at least I went" and sometimes that's enough for me. It is so hard to leave that comfort zone and branch out especially being new to the school system and all. I know this didn't offer a lot of advice- more of just letting you know others feel the same. Please let me know how it went. Take care!
Angie......I can't believe that is how you feel!!! You, of any body.....so talented, so sweet, so sensitive and beautiful! Think of what people would miss if you didn't attend:)
