Follow the "smile and wave" rules. Get their early. Sit with friends. You are a confident woman who cares about her community. Treat it business like. Stick with your girlfriend. Dress nice and be the beautiful woman that you are. Bring water. Do not look at him during the meeting. Ignore the skunk and the skank. If anyone asks you about him or her. State. "Thank you for your concern. But our town needs our support now so lets concentrate on that."
And do not drown your anxiety. Its an easy trap... I know.... Mine is red wine or stout beers.
And if you do see them. Be strong. Be still. Be calm.
Ok girl you gotta come clean. You keep giving tidbits about your life and all I see is a caring and giving person.
