I was invited to join the lead tenant and his family at a Chrissy do down in Corinella and it sounded like a good idea 2 months ago when I agreed to it, but now I'm doing that whole overthinking and stressing thing that I do well. I don't know that I really want to anymore, it's a long trip away in a teeny tiny car to a place I've never been to meet people I've never met in a situation where everybody else is very familiar with everybody else there, and I'll be the odd one out
I'll definitely be going, I'm not going to cancel this late, but I'm just nervous about it and also wondering why the fuck I signed up to go do something on like the only day of the year I don't have to do anything
Tell us how it went after, you never know... Sometimes our gut is right, sometimes these stressful and dreaded events can turn out to be a lot better than expected and change our brain wiring :D at the very least, you'll see a very different and lovely part of Vic that you wouldn't be able to go to otherwise.
Corinella is nice. Give a wave as you go through Tooradin! 👋
It is a beautiful part of the world. I think I've stopped in Tooradin a couple of times too - also a nice part of the world
