Thanks for all your support, it really helped! I tried telling myself yesterday that the lunch would go just fine but a little voice kept saying, "You know how some people react when they see you." Kept trying to tell myself that it probably bothers me more then it bothers them. I was bolstered by your posts and headed out with time to spare. I put in my sisters CD and put the pedal to the metal. I was so relaxed that I would have been more than happy to cruise right on to the next state. I googled the restaurant for directions, that was a mistake, they said that once I took the exit I would turn left then go 2.2 miles and would be there. I continued to enjoy the drive, was a good 20 minutes a head of schedule so no worries. When I arrived at 2.2 miles there was nothing but fields on both sides of me. I turned the truck around and headed back to where the stores were. I stopped at a gas station and asked for directions, turns out the restaurant was more like 2.2 blocks from where I turned. While at the gas station I checked my cell phone encase my friend called. There was a message but not from her, it was from the doctors office where I had my physical etc. last week, message was to call. I'm now almost late for lunch and worried about why the doctor called. Called the doctor office, closed for lunch! I made it to the restaurant by 12:30, agreed upon time. Sherrie was there waiting, we hugged, briefly explained trip, ordered lunch then talked tell 5:00. Called the doctor office around 4 and they said they just wanted to let me know the test was fine couldn't tell me that in the message of course. As you can tell we had a wonderful time or we wouldn't sat there for over 4 hours. One small step for Jill, one big step for future visits with others! Thanks again, Jill
