I Feel Slightly Pathetic
Exhausting.
Yeah. That is the word I am looking for…. exhausting.
I just got back from a function. A lovely little happy hour function. There was mingling. There was fraternizing. There was merriment. And it was exhausting.
Yes, as a matter of fact, I AM one hundred years old thankyouverymuch.
I can’t even believe how out of touch I am.
How is it that I can run 15 miles and do a marathon cleaning session directly afterwards but I can’t mingle and drink ONE GLASS OF WINE without desperately needing to crawl into bed and sleep?
There is only one answer: my children have sucked the life out of me. I don’t care if my conclusion makes sense or not. I used to be able to stay awake until dawn and party like a rock star. I used to be able to flit around and be merry and happy and energized.
That was before THEY came.
Now I can’t even muster a cocktail without yawning.
I feel slightly pathetic.
ah my dear…the key is to have at least 3 glasses of wine. Wheeeee!
Oh honey…we’ve all been there. Hell, I was there just two days ago. Glad you vented and I hope you feel better. You are STILL a rock star, even if you do go to bed early sometimes
Is it badthat 26 I sometimes go to bed at 7:30pm after putting my son to sleep?
You know youre a hundred years old when you choose a good book and a cup of tea instead of a bottle of wine and snuggle time with your OH.
To name but a few of the examples.
Take care

Yeah… I used to be able to drink every man, viking and woolly mammoth under the table. Now I start to get dozy half way through a glass of Pinot Noir.
Oh the shame.

I just came back from a mommy and me happy hour. Of course, I only had one drink and drank water for a couple of hours before driving home, but if I was alone, I would have had two glasses of wine and likely passed out on my friends’ couch. I am a light weight!! But hey… it’s cheaper that way.

I am with my husband now in LA with the sole purpose to attend VMA parties and events. All of these parties start at 10 and go until like 3. But by 8 I’m ready to crawl in bed. The first party I decided to ignore my sleepiness and enjoy that this is the first party that I’ve been to in awhile that didn’t involve a sand box, cake, balloons, and screaming kids. So I got WASTED like it was 21st birthday wasted. I was pretty pathetic!
