When I came home from work, I was happy to see that no one had called me. Imagine, people call me at home. What, am I stupid for giving out my number and telling people to call me?!
They used to catch me in the bathroom -- "Can you show me how to do such-and-such".

I wanted to show how them to lay on the floor and do their best imitation of a "pavement pancake"

Yeah, it's hard for women and for caretakers (which most woman are, I think). We tend to feel best when we're 'helping' so we want to 'help' all the time. It gets out of hand. People being helped get lazy. And we don't want to give up that 'feeling' that we get when we're helping.

There *IS* a balance though. It takes a lot of work.

Hugs. Enjoy your day off. Don't eat all the Halloween candy!!
