Among Friends

[I am still oxox]

I live in a 525 unit condo development outside of NYC. This weekend was supposed to be a Free 85th anniversary party, which was cancelled due to lack of participation. People around here are so willing to flap their mouths when something goes wrong. I am disabled or I would of volunteered. What gives with this world. I wonder if the same thing will happen with the Halloween party which is being planned. Rant over

People tend to bring that to Florida with them when they come down!  Seems to be everywhere these days!

It's something that I guess people aren't interested in.  Weekends in the fall have too much to do.  Art and music festivals, football games, shopping, visits from people, etc.

And others are too old, too tired, or too busy to go to that event.  It doesn't mean they are bad people.  They just have better things to do.

I am disabled, but I find plenty of stuff to do volunteering that doesn't require me running around.  Phone calls, arranging menu, ordering., greeting lots of stuff to do. I have put together decorations, and such at my table, or in the party facility.  I think some people are a little scared too, at least that's what some tell me. They are avoiding big events.

I'm not sure I understand.  Was it cancelled because people weren't interested in attending, or not interested in volunteering to make it happen?
