Another quiet day. We dyed my hair and did the packing( that we could before Monday) I'm not taking a lot mainly casual stuff, similar to what we took to Brighton but a bit less, as obviously we aren't going for as long. I am taking my Dyalog and photo printer. Even if we only have a little downtime between outings I can roughly put a few photos of each trip into my book and work it all out properly once we get back.
Have you ever noticed that all of us spend most of our lives juggling? We try to keep everyone happy, we put too much into our days so that we don't let anyone down. We rush through events we love just to get to ones we feel obliged to turn up to. Instead of saying, No and risk upsetting someone, we spread ourselves thin and end up not enjoying anything. I know I've done it in the past, but I'm working on not doing it in the future.
I'm 58 in a couple of weeks. Time to put me first. It doesn't mean that I'm "being funny" it doesn't mean I don't enjoy your company. It just means I'm not compromising what I want to do. Time to stop juggling, and stop having so many balls in the air. I want to do what is best for me now.
