You ever get social overload? Spend too much time interacting with people and get social drain? Today, to get away a bit, I rode up to a coffee shop. Put in my order, and sat down. 30 minutes later the coffee hadn't come up. I know I should have gone to ask what was up, but couldn't. I just left and went to another shop and had a very nice light roast pour over and read some comics on my phone and the world is coming back into position. #NotEnoughSpoons

So close to being able to shut down for 6 weeks, going into #hermit mode. Tenaciously fending off all social events past 7 Dec, now just lying and saying I'll "be away".
The once-a-year Xmas break is my only chance to #rest and #refuel, I get so bloody tired, and I'm SO KEEN to reconnect with me again. 🙏😍
