I think it came from being homeschooled when mom started our vocabulary course in 3 grade and SAT prep in 6th! LOL We were involved a LOT when we were younger, but when we hit jr. high age we started our own business and were very involved with our church so there wasn't much time for homeschool co-ops anymore....

Sooooo, we didn't have a lot of socialization which is still a problem for me today. It is especially difficult for me to go to "new" social events. My company's Christmas party about did me in.  :-[ And these were people I see everyday, but the new situation overwhelmed me. I felt like I was suddenly on display and everyone was judging my every move. DH talked to my co-workers more than I did. I'm more of a one-on-one person.
