The perfect time to blog

There is a solid reason why when I die I would like my husband to burn my journals without opening them. He could even scatter the remains somewhere if he so chose to. The only time I feel like writing, blogging, journaling, etc, is when I'm thinking about something intently, usually on the darker side (again, sorry for using the term sexual being), or am just ticked off about something. The latter is what brought me here today. I should really change my blog from a family blog to The Personal Rantings of the Insane Mother. Or something like that.
So here's my beef. Why do people allow their dogs to poop in others yards. I'm not talking about pooping up in the front, near the sidewalk, but traipsing all through the yard and up the side yard near the back fence and doing business. There's no way an owner doesn't know what's going on. And then to not feel obligated to pick up after their dog... seriously. I wish I had a bbgun. I would seriously wake up early and sit inside, nearby the window and just wait. I could take the screen down and crack the window. Place the tip of the gun through the small space so no one would detect it but it would be ready at a moments notice. Then: BAM! BING! lesson: learned.
Here's my bigger beef. I put together a party for a non-profit organization called Freedom Stones. They help stop human trafficking and teach mothers to become entrepreneurs so the can take care of their families. Check them out. Anyway, I invited almost 50 women. I invited all the women I have contact with from my previous ward in Carrollton, my current ward, and friends and acquaintances from the gym. I sent out evites. One of the best and most effective way to invite people, don't you think? So easy to view the invitation, and all you have to do is click the yes or no button. RSVPing made simple.
How many people responded to your evite? Welllll, I had three or four people send me personal message via facebook letting me know they couldn't make it. Very kind. Very thoughtful. Love them all. On my evite I had ZERO no replies! Impressive eh? No one cannot come. Oh but wait a minute. Zero replies yes? Huh. Did anyone even open up the evite? Did anyone look? Can anyone come? Does anyone care? Well, it's a mystery because I'm not a mindreader. Really wishing I had that power right now. So, I had to email the non-profit rep and cancel the party. How can I host the party when I expect no one to show? So big bummer.
It's one thing to have 15 people RSVP and then have 18 show or even 20 show. It's another thing to have not one person at all find the 2 seconds it takes to click on a yes or no button, or even the 5-10 seconds it takes to open up the evite.
So upset.
Can you tell?
What makes it worse is that I haven't thrown any sort of party for the last 5 years because the last time I hosted a party no one showed. It was a more typical party selling Do Re Mi and You products (fantastic musical toys for children. They are a part of Kindermusik if you've heard of them.)It was so upsetting to me that I never wanted to host a party again.
I changed my mind for this party because it was for such a great cause and I thought for sure I'd get a decent response.
Lesson: learned.
