Peoplely.
I actually have to prepare myself to "people". 

My mom says, "I'm, people." I tell her, "Yes, but you're MY people." There's a difference.

I love to organize outings, book trips, and plan parties, and more. I love everything that goes into planning, up until the day of, then it may take all I have not to back out.

In all honestly, there have been times when I did. 

If my husband can't go with me to an event or I may not know who will be attending, it's easier to back out of going than putting myself in these situations.

I don't like to "people" alone or in large crowds.


If I'm going, it all depends on if I know who is going to be there and the size of the occasion. If there will be too many people there that I won't know or if it's a day I just get too overwhelmed in my thinking about the event, even if my husband can go with me, it's easier to just decide that it's a "no go". I can't tell you how many wedding cards, birthday cards, I have wasted.

Many times, I order online to avoid "people-ling", even items like detergent, dryer sheets, dog food. Just about anything. UPS, FedEx, as well as USPS have a clearly marked box by the front door for package deliveries.

I had also discovered grocery "drive up". I found that it was so easy. Now, the last few years, I have found Walmart, Hy-Vee, and Target "Drive ups" to be the best. Place my order and in a few hours, I get my goods, a coffee or Juice Stop, drive thru car wash and then on home. Easy Peasy!

I don't want you to think I don't ever go into stores because I do. If it's just a few items, I can do it. In and out. If it's going to be something where a cart is going to be needed, then ordering online and picking it up or having it delivered, is my preference.

Recently, I had a friend ride along to go after my "Drive up" order. We've known each other for years, but she never knew this about me. She asked if I didn't like people or something because of how I grocery shop.

It's not that I don't like people, I just don't want to "people". 

Does that make sense?

People are hard.

I prefer to choose who I "people" with and when.

I choose "my people".
