It Speaks!!!
It appears that all my nagging and browbeating finally paid off!
Yesterday one of my BMs, as well as FMIL, started asking me questions about saturday's planned dress trip, like if it was still on, what time, etc. So I figured I'd send out one FINAL email with directions to the store and a confirmation of the time. One last feeble attempt to get an answer from problem BM.
So the subtle route clearly didn't work, so I resorted to public shaming. Sad, but I had to do what I had to do. Just called her out, and said that she needs to contact me and let me know if her schedule allows for her to come or not, EITHER WAY. By name, to all 6 girls.
Lo and behold, it worked! Apparently her schedule doesn't start until late afternoon, and now miraculously, I've managed to wrangle 7 girls and 3 mothers together at the same place at the same time. Whew!
Crisis averted...for now. I mean, I'm not mad at her because she may have had to work. I knew going in to the plan that she works and most likely would have to go on a weeknight, and I wasn't expecting her to take off for it. It's more just give me an answer! It took since the first week in DECEMBER to get that.
Plus pulling the same routine on my mother.
Now if you could all cross your fingers for me that my one BM doesn't lunge across the store and wrestle her to the ground, it would be much appreciated![]()
