Feeling a little sorry for myself tonight as I sit in alone, (well, ds is asleep in his cot, bless) while dh is out on his 2nd works Xmas party of the week.
Last year didn't seem so bad. I was a new mum, with a tiny wee baby to look after. The last thing on my mind was "Bummer, I'm missing out on the Xmas Party". This year though, ds is 13months, and having recently moved from London to be near dh's work, I'm feeling completely cut off from everyone. Massive dose of 24/7 morning sickness for the first 16weeks of a new pregnancy, just as we moved, didn't help the social life either. Now I'm feeling fine and would relish the opportunity of going out to a Xmas party. Only my old work colleagues are in London, miles away, and I've yet to really meet anyone here. Sad eh?
Any other full time mums feel left out? Having given up their work to be at home. Perhaps their OH invite them along too? Typical NHS though, partners never seem to be invited. I'm always told it would be dull listening to everyone bark on about "oooh, do you remember that bloke I anaesthetised last week, wasn't it hilarious when ...." blah, blah, blah! Perhaps I'm not missing anything at all!
