IsItFridayYet?
Its too late, cause I already did it, but...I still want to ask.
I'm guessing its "bad".
My ex-in-law's have a milestone anniversary today. I ordered flowers to have delivered today to their home. Their very good friends, who also have a milestone anniversary this month, had a celebration today. A quartet the husband sings with at 6, followed by a dj and dance at 8.
At Wee's ballgame earlier this week, exMIL mentioned that it kinda stung that these folks haven't even mentioned their anniversary (tho they did NOT want a party) even tho their party is on THE DAY of their anniversary.
So...my friend, the cafe owner, called me at 8. The guys from the flower shop were there. They had tried to call me at home and couldn't get ahold of me, but they also had not been able to catch exMIL at home ALL DAY, so they had not made the delivery. I talked to cafe owner/friend a bit, and we decided, given exMIL's "sting", to just tell them to deliver the flowers to the party. By that time, the dj should have been in full swing, and hopefully it wasn't too much of a disruption. And if it was, well...maybe it would prompt a few folks to share a "happy anniversary" with the exInLaws, too.
Now, i'm thinking I maybe shouldn't have done that. I dunno. Its done, I really don't think the other couple would care (and we were invited to the party but couldn't go because we were at the shoot), they are friends, too....but? What would you have done? I didn't break the bank, but I didn't send a cheap bouquet, either...my only other option, really, was to leave it til Monday, and these guys had already spent 5 extra hours trying to deliver their creation.
