[QUOTE="Fran, post: 322627, member: 3"] I get to attend things like this at various times of the year. Instead of dreading it, I think of it as my chance to dress up and play adult. It's not my world since I don't work for them so I play the role of wife. In the end, I usually have a lovely time, get really good food and end up meeting someone or two who add something to my conversation or knowledge. It is interesting most of the time. For someone like me who wears "rag clothes" most of the week, jeans are almost dressy. I enjoy thinking I'm attending parties like "Holly Golightly" would attend. Not that I look or dress like Audrey Hepburn. It's just a way to make something positive out of something that may be intimidating. Besides, I'm grateful that this is a gift given to us. I try to appreciate it. If I'm bored, I eat, stay the appropriate time and head to my room with a remote control and watch tv knowing I don't have to scrub the tub or make my bed. : ) Have fun.
