I too am learning to say that word NO and more than that I am taking time & space that is for ME! At 62 I have earned it. Whilst my hub is very unwell in the physical sense he is good intellectually & he more than understands that my time is NOW. 41 years of parenting & 4o of teaching too. Love this time NOW. Joined. Gym yesterday. Haven't been to a gym since 1980s. With you all the way.. Even tho we are on opposite sides of the country!

Now if I can just get over the guilts at saying no I should be fine.

I also found out he not only has asthma but a pacemaker, no wonder he understands.<br /><br />Thank you for the hugs xxxKakkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376864098492915312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-922585999776797616.post-73175365219737381742012-09-06T18:36:12.990+08:002012-09-06T18:36:12.990+08:00Go Kakka!
