when an introvert "extroverts" 283/366

I am an introvert

that doesn't  mean I don't like people

I love people

but to love them well,

to have energy to interact and invest in a healthy way

I have to intentionally take time to be alone, 

to refuel, refresh and be restored

this past four days I have pushed myself 

and I've been the recipient of new, budding relationships

but I have almost pushed too far

how do I know?

tonight I am weary to the bone

not of people,

but of "peopling" 

my planned remedy:

some extended back porch time 

just me and the pups 

unless someone wants to adopt them

and maybe some lake gazebo time, 

the trees are beginning to change and should be beautiful this week
