I am so frustrated / myLot

I joined a garden club this year with my neighbors on each side of me. The class starts at 2 but the one lady that has been going to this for years won't leave the house until after 2. I asked why and she said nothing important ever starts until later. I hate being late and finding a seat is not so easy when we go later. My neighbor is 90 something and if anyone knows anything about older people, a stubborn person cannot be changed. I found that out with my parents.

Yesterday we left the house at 2:15 and it took at least 10 minutes to get there and then the two other ladies brought bread pieces to feed the ducks before the class. I just went into the class and they came in later. They could have waited for after the class to feed the ducks. The class is over at 4pm.

@Courtlynn I know. I know we are all different but it is hard to get use to the way other people do things. I think it might be better to meet them there.

Some people just cannot be changed. Some people are just like that. Like you, I like being on time. I don't understand how some people don't seem to mind if they're late.

I could never understand my parents as they were always early. Now I understand them.

Believe it or not I am learning a lot as I moved down to Florida from way up north in New Jersey/Pennsylvania. Gardening is completely different in each of these places. My favorite plants from up north won't grow down here in the heat and the sun. Also the soil is a lot different. Here everything is sandy where up north everything was dark dirt. In the sand, water runs right through it where the dirt up north will stay wet for a longer period of time.
