On Wednesday I met my friend Sam’s wife. All I have to say is AWKWARD! They both came over to pick up some shelves. After meeting her who she seems like a nice lady and I know it’s me, it was still awkward.  Maybe for all the new people I meet I should wear a tag that says “Hi my name is Danielle and I am socially awkward.” Sam and I had a conversation not too long ago and I told him. I am shy when I meet new people. He said you’re not around me and I said remember when we first met I was. Oh yeah he says.

What I learned through the years is test the waters. See if the person has the same sense humor and see what their attitude is. I used to be a little more adventurous but I learned the hard way there are people who aren’t sarcastic like me or have the same sense of humor. So the 35 year old Danielle is more shy because I rather have person test me out first then me. To avoid someone getting mad or taking things the wrong way. This way as I get more comfortable around them then I will open up more. I just find this is better than the other way around. I am sure Sam’s wife Penny thought I was awkward as well. Ugh I am dreading a cookout that Sam and Jeff want to do at Sam’s house. Oh well.

This weekend we are going to look at colors to do our kitchen. We are DIY our kitchen! Fun? No but it will be better than it does now. It’s summer!!!!
