Now it's been a fair few months since I got me glad rags on. Just over a year! And I haven't really had a drink at all in that time. So I was a little nervous. And the fact I had to feed Isla the next day was playing on my mind a lot and holding me back.
But as soon as I was all scrubbed, tanned and heels on I didn't feel too bad. I felt like the old me again. And we got there and it was great to see all my lovelies all dressed up and me not covered in baby vom. But then it was the tackles to the bar and loo with all the teeny boppers about! All the snogging! All the looks you get for walking through them! Oh god I felt about 80!
Bumping into people I haven't seen for a very long time and saying what I've been up to and how I have 2 kids now, I felt very boring! I'm even rolling my own eyes at myself for saying that. But really I did.
I wasn't the only one that felt a bit odd and out of place, one other of my friends (who doesn't have kidlets) said she felt weird being out and didn't really know what to do. Our solution..get the tequilas down our necks, some more vino and we were dancing with the rest of em. If you can't beat em, join em!
I didn't make it past 2am and didn't make a fool out of myself like I used to but it was so good to get out and be me again, not just a mama!
Sunday was a struggle with a bit of a sore head but a very bloody good lunch out in the sticks, in the sunshine sorted me right out!
And being home with the kids and Lee again made me realise I'm not just a boring mum. Just that I've got a brilliant job.
