I hate it!

When people call or text you just hours before and says they're not coming!
We had invited over 30 people to our Advent celebration and today from 11AM until 15 minutes ago (!) 10 people have said they won't come :-(

I mean if you say yes to something you schedule that, don't you? If you get ill I can understand but to just say you won't be coming that is not OK! Does it means they say yes and will come if not something more interesting comes up? I wonder.

I have planned for 30, baked and made all the rolls and everything, not to mention glogg and if there's only 20 (or less) it means I have thrown out a lot of money for nothing. So we say this is probably the last year we have this.
It takes a lot of effort to do all this, plus all the things to prepare, shop, bake, changing all the furniture so people will have a place to sit and so on.
And it gets harder since neither of us is in our best health :-(

Anyway I'm sure that we and the ones that do come have a good time together with good food and glogg.

This is what we have on our Advent table.
