[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 390288, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]We, as a group, struggle to say "no" . It's such a small word yet has such a big impact on our daily lives. Jo, I've reached that breaking point 3x over the last year. I didn't think I'd get back up on my feet ~ one day I didn't want to try. Just seemed to much. Jo, I was on extremely high doses of prednisone for over 2 1/2 years - developed Cushing's. Are the doctor's keeping on top of that? While that medication is a life saver - the side effects can be debilitating. I'm learning to say "no" ~ yet you'll notice my last with-c thread where I bought one dog too many. So now I pick up the pieces of not saying that most simple to spell yet hard to say word "no". [/FONT][/SIZE][SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS] Maybe we should proclaim one day a month - our "OMG, Now What?" day. Better yet "No" day. The day we decline all invitations, requests, etc. Sounds like a plan to me.[/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS] [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
