It's a guaranteed good time, and I really wanted to go with them. But I had a lot of work to do for SparkPeople, plus an afternoon of cocktails and bar food is a terrible way to start of my week and to prepare for the upcoming marathon. So, the choice was clear.
Action 368 - Decline The Invite. It sucks, because I adore all of the friends that gathered today and really wanted to be there with them. But I made the right call for me, my fitness and nutrition, and my job.
After the marathon, though? Yeah, I'll be stopping by the Grill for a celebratory drink. Count on it.
It does suck, but sometimes work has to come before pleasure.
ReplyDeleteI really do need to do this more! Why is it so hard to say no for ourselves?!
ReplyDeleteThis time, I really wanted to say yes, but I just couldn't make the time.
