Frustrated with myself and there is nothing I can do about it.
Works Christmas drinks after work yesterday. I don't work Fridays and was in 2 minds about going. Wanted to see my work friends & have a chat away from the office but also wanted to stay at home with DD1 as DD2 was out & thought we could watch a film etc. In the end OH & DD1 said I should go as I'd enjoy myself.
For a start it took ages to get there due to traffic. Arrived but felt really out of place as everyone was already there & having a good chat. There were 2 conversations going on, of which I wasn't included in either. Woman next to me had her back to me and was talking to a group. My boss was sat opposite me and she was telling some anecdotes and everyone around her was killing themselves laughing, only I couldn't really hear what she was saying so I couldn't join in. They then all started a game of snog marry avoid naming men that we work with. Not my idea of fun! Around 15 mins before I had to leave I managed to sit next to my best work friend and we had a good chat so that was something.
Wish I'd trusted my gut instinct, stayed at home with DD1 with a hot chocolate and a good film and saved some time and money in the process!!
Sorry just needed to sound off. Thanks for reading. Maybe I'm just a bit bah-humbug.
