This evening I’ll be participating in a guys night out for the first time in a while. It’s usually my Dad and friends of the family or from church that get together once a month.

I’ve only gone once before and it was a lot of fun. I’ll only be gone about two hours and so I don’t stress out too much about being away.

Life isn’t easy. I’m trying to take advantage of moments like this because it allows me to step outside my comfort zone and sorta decompress for a little bit.

Speaking for myself, but I know many of you out there get this, as much as I need a break, I’m always nervous about taking one. It seems counterintuitive but it’s just something I struggle with. It’s sorta like an emotional hurdle for me but it’s one I’m trying to work with.

Lizze will go out with her Mom from time to time and I encourage her to do so. I’m more of a home body anyway and when I away from these guys, it stress. Most of the time, I’d prefer to stay home if given the choice. It’s not like I’m agoraphobic or anything like that. I’m not afraid to go out, I just don’t want to most of the time.

Regardless, tonight I’m going out for a bit and I’m looking forward to it. ☺
