Good morning peevers.

I trust that everyone is looking forward to a lovely weekend.

I was looking through the calendar for next week and realised that I'm double booked for one evening.

I hardly ever go out in the evenings of late and there it was- a meeting and a session with my acupuncturist.

At least it has given me the idea for the POTD which is;

Getting double booked.

Jezer, all that lush, green grass and lovely wild flowers makes me want to roll in it like a kid! Thanks for the fun pic!!!


Awesome Peeve too! I am guilty of double booking myself from time to time. A very embarrassing situation, and bowing out of one or the other gracefully can be a bit... challenging. I don't wish that on anyone!

Have a beautiful day everyone!

Don't think I've ever found myself double-booked. I've had to juggle things due to others availability, i.e., 2 parties could only meet on the same day, but unless both required travel to different areas I would schedule the meetings back-to-back.

Good peeve, Jezer. This happens to me on occasion. I'm so darned busy, yet keep saying "yes" when people ask me to do more. I occasionally say yes before I check my calendar and then discover that I had a prior commitment on the same day or evening.

I used to do that before retiring. Now that I have a smart phone with Business Calendar Pro it's easy to keep everything straight. If I had only used it then..

And what are we ignoring? Photo problems again?

Glad you mentioned that Tek.

Yes- but, touch wood, they got resolved today and I hope to post some tomorrow.

It's gratifying that their absence is noticed- thank you.
