The last couple of days have been busy with stuff.
My coworker (teammate) came back from 10 days of vacation. She had over 3000 emails. She's been pretty useless.
That's OK, I have been in 'robo' mode. (meaning I get everything done, but no socializing with anyone). Monday and Tuesday I was feeling puny so I skipped the gym to go home and get some rest. Then Wednesday and Thursday evenings were filled with various work group holiday parties. Tonight is my only free evening as another holiday party is set for Saturday night. UGH!
This is not fun for me. I sometimes tell people "thanks, but I don't really celebrate Christmas". And sometimes I just give a wry smile and let it go... it would be too much effort to try to explain.

You can always truthfully thank them for their kind and generous invitation and say that you feel something coming on (a grnchiness of spirit and an inexplicable desire for rest, quiet and privacy perhaps?) and that you don't think that it would be quite right to share it with their guests.
our company luncheon was thursday; no drinking, good food, but I'm just NOT into celebrating ANYTHING right now.
if I ruled the world, 11/1 thru 2/28 would be removed from the calendar!
anne marie,
I am looking for your tiara and magic wand right now.
dear will:
they are out at the dry cleaners right now; so sorry!
