Just Can't Say No

My mom was not good at saying, "no" to people. Oh she had gotten a little better over the years, but she still tried to do a lot. I like to think that I do say "no" more often than she did, but now I realize I don't. I'm a sucker for a fun project and I feel bad not helping someone out. No wonder she was so stressed. No wonder I am so stressed. I am always behind and my house is always a mess...that sounds familiar too. Maybe I'll never learn...

  1. Emily, thanks for sharing. I, too, have many woes about doing too much and my house being a wreck....but I think it is better to live and be busy- the housework will always be there and friends and fun activities won't ....if I figure out how to do it all, I will let you know! :) ~Ida
