Loose plans and cancelling

I'd be interested in your opinions!

So I absolutely hate to cancel any plans I've made or to say no to things, often I will think I'll just go for a bit and then end up there for hours with loads to do when I get back.

Because of this I spent two hours yesterday taking a friend to a medical appointment (happy to do it though) and tomorrow I'm visiting a friend who lives 2.5 hours away for the day because it's the only time we could both do and I wanted to make the effort.

So today I had loads to do but did say to another friend maybe we could meet for a coffee if we were both free. She's just texted to ask if I'm still free. I feel terrible saying no, I'm actually still catching up on stuff. Is this being flakey or does it not count as plans? Really I should have just said I was going to be too busy today, but I didn't really realise how much stuff has built up over the week!

AIBU to say that I am not free? Especially as I've obviously got time to write this thread! But promise it's while I'm waiting for the washing machine to finish!

It's fine, the arrangement was if you're both free and you're not. When you reply suggest an alternate day and time.

Thanks! I think I'm a bit over sensitive about these things!

Yeh, just text saying sorry you had loads to do today but suggest another day and time. She'll be fine about it 😀
