One giant leap forward! - Part 4

Me: I have thought about it and I would like to be there for S3's birthday in the morning.

You might have added "if it's OK with you" since you already told her you would not be there. The above sounds kind of like a demand when it should be a request. Like I said in the post above- it's all about negotiating.

I was going to ask her what changed her mind about working on the M etc.

NOOOOO! Get back to your DB'ing my friend Get comfy with Sandi's rules again. Don't ask that kind of stuff, no matter what the answer is you're not going to like it.
