[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP made the playdate that day, just an hour ahead.[/b] The other mom probably had to juggle some things on her end to make it happen, but did it for her daughter. Then OP calls right back to say she'll be late because she has to stop by a store.

If I had put any additional effort into making it to the playdate myself, I'd also be annoyed, and wonder if OP is going to make it.

I also suspect that OP is one of those people who always. always has one little thing she has to do before she can get to the pre-arranged event, or frequently "has" to cancel due a variety of things most people just call "life," and the other mom had experienced this in some fashion before.[/quote]

That's not what OP said, though.

OP said this:

"I'm usually over prepared if I schedule things a day or two ahead. [b]The mom called me an hour before to make arrangements so I didn't plan ahead[/b]. I started packing a day bag immediately, realized the drawer was empty, notified the mom, and within a few minutes she decided to cancel." [/quote]
