You’ve all given me a lot to think about. Things that seem obvious, but need to be brought up. What I’m thinking about most on this early Sunday morning is what dandylion and someone else may have added to. I think his words are genuine, but I do have to consider if he is just manipulating me. I suppose he knows me pretty well. He knows I can’t say no when he or someone else asks for something whether it be to pass the butter or straighten out a financial disaster. I have given so much of myself to stuff like that over the years. I do find it satisfying, maybe too satisfying, but I do end up feeling some resentment. So, I am going to stay strong and not swoop in to save the day.

I like the 3 Cs. That’s something I can just say to myself when I’m feeling vulnerable.

Thanks again for your help and I hope you have a nice Sunday. I’m going to make sure I do something for ME beyond the grocery store and laundry!!
