Happy Ending (And Odd Coincidence)

LOL-that' because I don't always publicly correct myself.
As woman, I have fallen into the rut of not being able to say NO unless it's truly the end of my rope.....so I was creating that with "please don't come here....". But that doesn't even make sense, because we don't have to be a the crazy-door to say no-it's perfectly OK to say no just because you don't want to. That said, if another Papi did come scratch at my door-I wouldn't turn it away, especially if it were one I knew had someone looking for it.
So I wanted to share the uncharacteristic dramatic statement. I am tired, and I am taking steps to slow down a bit for the rest of the year, but dang it, I'm a grown up and I should do it because I'm tired and I want to, not because the world is "bad" that I just "have" to. (Part of my never ending process to own my own life......)
Sadly, I learned a lot of my positive thinking strategies in studying PR-but I took what I needed from it without going down that career path. I won't spin a product, but I do try to spin my own life as much as possible because it really works.
I have had a hard time saying no to people and it has caused me alot of grief. I can not count how many times I said yes when I wanted to say h@LL no. Afterwards I would kick myself for saying yes.
The one thing that WLS has given me the ability to say NO and not give a hoot if it bothers the person....
