forever...don't ask me again.!

Eureka, Barblsn!!

I am going to use until it dries up and flakes off!!!

I have such a problem with just saying "No" to things. The reaction always seems to be of utter surprise that the word be used firstly by me of all people and then lastly with such finality. You've given me the buffer, the drum rim shot ending if you will, to my dilemma. When someone asks me a question I know they will not take a final answer to, I am adding the "...don't ask me again." Why did that not occur to me?

Congratulations on playing that tape all the way through and reminding yourself that boundaries are not temporary sandbag walls but true concrete levies that serve a lasting purpose. If they aren't then we are only saying our sanity and peace of ming is only worth a month, six months, a year etc. I won't put a time limit on my happiness, and it sounds like you won't either.

Bravo to you!!!
