[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 670074, member: 16024"] Oh, you probably learned your 'people pleasing' skills early on, I'm guessing. Yes, you may need to re-evaluate what you can realistically do for everyone. And that's OK. You have to look out for yourself too. My grandmother is grateful for the help, and not at all demanding, though she is getting really anxious when someone throws anything out. I usually clean out the fridge really well when I go, and she seems to think I am throwing out perfectly good stuff, when of course, I am not going to do that. Just trying to keep everyone healthy. But other than that, she is pretty easy to help. My kids are doing well, one daughter getting married next spring, her twin looking at buying a house (they have always lived together so quite a life change). My son is well, never a problem. Both step-sons are not really talking to their dad right now. They are mad at him for being upset at their latest Difficult Child-ness. And so it goes. [/QUOTE]
