Hmmmmm. LOL. <br />I totally get what your friend Mr. Cooper is saying. Sometimes, it is hard to make a commitment several weeks out. Unfortunately, we are all juggling so many things that sometimes it is hard to predict stuff that hasn't even come up on the air traffic control radar screen yet, but that may still require our attention like it or not....out of sight, out of mind sort of thing maybe. <br />I like invites that come right around the 10 day mark, or less even. (Unless it is a major event like marriage, graduation, huge event kinda thing, etc.) I also love invites that are RSVP Regrets Only or electronic evites/facebook event type things. It's more convenient, for me, to just select a yes, no, or maybe and then move on.<br />Pet peeve about RSVPs, give at date that you want an RSVP by, then leave me alone. If I don't respond, then assume I'm not coming because it would be rude to show up without your host planning on you being there. About the budget thing, never invite more than you can afford. If everyone shows up you are good, if not then your family will probably appreciate all the extras around the house...especially if you can eat the extras. :)<br />There, that is my lengthy RSVP to your RSVP post!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00915525008041023300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193708121568514184.post-65739644093262462612010-03-29T16:39:30.912-04:002010-03-29T16:39:30.912-04:00I think that most of us either want to keep things...I think that most of us either want to keep things 'open' just in case a 'better offer' happens to come up. I mean, it is that whole natural man thing that makes us so selfish. Either that or we just want to have an 'out' if we are tired that night.<br /><br />As we have grown older though, my wife and I have decided that if we have something 'on the calendar' it is so much easier to say no to the other things that 'come up' and try to distract us from what we are trying to do.<br /><br />Just the ramblings of a former drip under pressure.

We did RSVP right? if not well we are coming and are very excited, well I am anyway! I think RSVPing is in fact very easy I like being able to commit it helps me feel important that someone took the time to invite me, and actually wants ME there! :) so I RSVP yes as much as possible!Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04634950241388401004noreply@blogger.com
