f/up to disappointed post...WWA08 Do?

How should I tactfully tell my cousin that I'm not coming over today? Last night I figured I'd wake up and see how I felt. I'm still irritated and don't want to go now. I don't want to be snarkey about it, but kind of want to say something like, "Well since Em can't come over we'll reschedule for another time." What do you think?

    I'd think that would be perfectly fine, not snarky at all.  Isn't she the one who suggested postponing it because your other cousin can't make it anyways?

    And if she changes her mind and says to just come over anyways, if you don't want to go I would just say you're not really feeling up to it right now.  You don't really need to explain any more than that...

    Ditto. My thoughts exactly. I totally understand your irritation though at the whole "let's reschedule because she can't come" thing when she was kind of a last add on.
  • I got this FB post just now from her: "Weather is supposed to be nice and the pool is warm!" I'm wondering if I should just go. I already cancelled last week. Maybe she didn't mean anything by what she said yesterday. She knows Em and I are close and maybe just figured if I was coming all the way down there I wanted to see her too...I don't know. I guess I'll go. I was looking forward to pool time and seeing my cousin and her kids. Last time I saw her I was in my first tri and was feeling like crap and wasn't myself. Thanks for the feedback. I guess it helped that my cousin made the first move today.
  • True, seeing as how she approached you first, that does change things. I hope you have fun!

    Have fun at the pool!
