It all comes together

It is now 8 days past the NJFC Festival
Turned out pretty good. OK I am still a little a bit of a control freak. I did not like
the ones who just showed up. Calling themselves the "regulars" and how they have done this for years. Never had the respect or courtesy to e-mail or call ME and let me know.
Think we had one way too many face painters and no one actually helping out in the childrens' area.
There were people showing up late or not at all.
I especially loved when one person showed up late, then went to get something to eat
before starting.
Now comes the process of getting everything in order to avoid all this in coming years.
I have also come to realize that I tend to do some of these things
Where I don't rsvp or reply to invitations or just show up to annual events
Guess I should heed my own words and start calling or e-mailing if I intend or not intend to be there.
