One of my IF support groups does a retreat each year, but the date is usually around the 4th of July. This year, it's in June. The ones organizing it didn't tell us about it until a couple of weeks ago, meaning only a couple of people can make it. I can't make it with that little notice, because I need to buy a plane ticket and such.
Well, now the one who organized most of it is all butt hurt because people said they couldn't make it. First she said she took all blame for it and apologize. Myself and several people were all "it's not a big deal, we are just sorry to miss it, but we'll do it next year". She just sent out another email saying:
"I had a feeling me volunteering myself to set everything up would backfire - I apologize again for not meeting expectations and not setting up details so that more people would join us. I shall pass the Party Planning wand over to someone else for next year."
Holy negative and drama queen, chica. Nobody is mad at you...you just need to give peopel dates sooner...wowsers.

Honestly, I'd bet you a million bucks she picked the date to accommodate HER and when it didn't work for everyone else she had her drama queen meltdown. I can't see any other reason for it to be so far off from the time you usually go.
That sucks though, Otter. I'm sorry you'll miss out.
