I, An Extrovert of Extroverts, Am Choosing An Introversion Thanksgiving

My title really says it. This year, I ducked invitations, and I’m not traveling anywhere. Things have been so busy as of late that I just really need some time to myself.

I won’t be eating turkey. I might get some Chinese food. Mostly, I’ll be streaming shows, listening to podcasts, and resting.

I bet some people will call, and when they do, I’ll answer and enjoy greeting them. But I won’t be seeing anyone, and I’m really looking forward to time curled up at the house.

Do you need some time to yourself? Maybe not for the holiday, but sometime? I’ll encourage you to take it too.
