Sometimes it is what I would prefer (what is most fun) and sometimes it is what is most needful. And - sometimes - the answer is the same. <br /><br />Good luck in finding the answer.Sunshine Promiseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12778302283088319607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-25403962104434492152010-11-04T06:19:32.528-07:002010-11-04T06:19:32.528-07:00You do what you need to do!

So much is always going on.<br />I remember years ago finally "letting go" and let me tell you it was a huge relief. I am like you - I like to throw parties, I am super involved, I always threw THE best birthday parties, yada, yada, yada but the time comes when it is OK to let go. Do the things that are most important and do them well and sometimes it is just A-OK to have the birthday party at Chuck.E. Cheese (or wherever). <br />Then you can enjoy it too!!<br />You are doing good :-DCBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16911579093553356167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-16752263290203623062010-11-03T13:09:27.026-07:002010-11-03T13:09:27.026-07:00You totally described my life and I don't work...You totally described my life and I don't work outside the home nor do photography. I am sure you are to the x power pulled. My tips for making the holidays a sucess is to get all the shopping done before November. At least that way I am not wasting time in the lines or with grumpy people! I agree with having a birthday party somewhere else. This way you don't have to clean your house before and after the party.likeschocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01733431135937009206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4982495311070974364.post-52828276353337264832010-11-03T12:50:08.351-07:002010-11-03T12:50:08.351-07:00You just described how I feel when I think about t...You just described how I feel when I think about the holidays + stress + upcoming birthdays.
