[QUOTE="Fran, post: 271595, member: 3"] Trinity, you have a perfect excuse. With your pregnancy and the job and family you feel you don't have any time to spare at present. Maybe give her a suggestion or two and let her down easy. My thing is that if I'm asked a favor, it should be on my terms. She told you what days and times suit her. She should make time for anything you are able to give her. I think the issue not sitting well with you is that she isn't asking a favor but demanding your assistance and then dangling a reward that doesn't quite cover it. She is being very self centered. I wouldn't give her more than you can fit in around the rest of your life. She does it on your terms or she doesn't get it. I would have to tell her weekends don't work for [I]you [/I]as it is the only time to do house work and spend time with husband and prepare for twins. Sheesh. I get royally miffed if I'm doing a favor and they start to make demands. [/QUOTE]
