the "say yes to every invitation" thing really is fun. And hard. I said "yes" to stuff when we lived in the interior of Alaska and I knew NO ONE and had a newborn, but had to get out. So cold and dark, etc.
But I NEVER regretted the "yes" after I had gone and accepted the invite. Learned a lot about myself. Joined a writer's club, took a pottery class???? YEAH and I was better at it then I thought, and did stand up comedy, auditioned, volunteered at a shelter, etc.
It was really eye opening and I realized how much of my life had been spent on NOT saying yes...
Enjoy your d time
