Domino<\/a> has a friend from out of state visiting two hours away.\u00a0 She’d love to get together but is scheduled to work each day between now and the end of the year. She’s working extra hours because she’s savings $$ for something she wants in January.\u00a0 Each day her friend asks her when they are getting together.\u00a0 Domino won’t tell him she’s working each day, she just says she’ll be disappointed if they don’t get to connect.\u00a0\u00a0 She tells me that if it’s meant to be, it will happen.\u00a0 I kinda think part of that “if it’s meant to be” is letting her friend know her schedule so he can decide whether he can drive to her for morning coffee rather than thinking she’s just blowing him off.\u00a0 Disappointed is what her friend will be when he learns she knew her schedule when he first asked.\u00a0 I don’t like to leave people hanging.
