weekend double whammy

Some friends of mine have invited me to lunch on Saturday.  It's a sort of house-warming+his 45th birthday combined event.  Three married couples and single me.

And on Sunday I have a Big Family Do where cousins with children, pregnant cousins and bursting with pride grandparents will abound.  Because I have to drive there (I'm taking three desserts) I won't be able to have a glass of wine to take the edge off.

Meh.

  1. Oh that's bad. You really need some pharmaceutical help if you cant drink! Is it a bank holiday weekend there? I wish you had a buddy to go with so you could play tricks on people, call their bluff and act outrageous and inappropriate! That would at least make it funny and weird at the same time. (( big hugs!))

  3. Yuck. Though I've discovered I often self-medicate with dessert. Is that why you're taking three?

    1. ha ha, this ^. At times like that, wine makes me weep (dessert doesn't make me fat until out-of-sight later!)

  4. Ouch...last minute, ahem, tummy bug? I'd say stick with what makes you feel good and don't do anything that makes you feel crap - some might say selfish but also self-preservation.

    Or you could pamper yourself and have your make-up done and get a fabulous glamorous new dress and give them all something to talk about for weeks! Be your gorgeous self and WOW them!
