Today has been gray and rainy -- all day! Ok, I know it could be worse, so I won't complain.
You can't please everyone at the same time. Who said that? Whoever it was is so RIGHT! My Sunday School class usually has a progressive dinner this time of year. This year it was decided to just have a dinner at the church. See, usually the people that want to cook for the progressive dinner live so far apart (different little towns, even in another county) that some won't go. Eating in the fellowship hall just seemed so easy and natural. People who normally wouldn't come, will, those that couldn't get baby sitters no problem, because those with teenagers will have them to take care of the little ones in another part of the church. How perfect could it get? Well, some don't think it is so perfect! B was signed up to fix appetizers claims there will be no need for them now and refuses to fix anything. At first she said we would just have to come to her house to eat them because she wasn't bringing "all that stuff" anywhere. (Gee, she lives in the same block as the church.) I really believe her husband is so embarrsed at her reaction. T said his wife was soooo upset that we weren't coming to her house to eat part of the meal. Wow. His wife rarely comes to Sunday School (and he not much more) and they are the ones that life in another county. He said that she gave him a real ear full! What is it with these people? A few others complained a little but not near as loudly. But the benifits are there: no driving 20 minutes here, 10 there, 15 over there, no need for babysitters, more time to socialize (because you aren't spending half the night in cars), ect.... Guess you can't please everyone! Ba Humbug!
