Hello my wonderful friends!
I found out that my old school on the west coast where I was director, is celebrating their 40th anniversary and they are 'honoring me.' Nice right?.
The problem is I already have rooms reserved for the dates I would need to be there! I have absolutely no one who could step in for me and run the B&B! The gal I had available, no longer is!
Should I call the future guests (a famiy that reserved two rooms for three nights), that I need to cancel their reservation and tell them why?
I know the B&B reputation in on the line here! It could be the future guests may not understand and be really upset if their reservation has to cancel! BUT I don't know that.
Or should I stay here and keep the reservation and tell the school I am unavailable! Not the choice I want, because I really want to go! Besides this, I would get to see my son, and my sister and in laws and special friends while I am there!
What should I do?
Thanks so much for your input!
