What is difficult for you about GAL? ... Do you struggle with feeling guilty about taking time for yourself, shyness in groups, or an overemphasis on taking care of others? CL
CL, you always ask thought provoking questions! I also like your approach.....I can just hear you say, "STOP COMPLAINING AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!" (in a helpful manner I might add).
It's a combination of those things, plus time. I believe the biggest issue is my D16 and my H's work schedule. She has a couple committments during the week and my H's work schedule is such that he is away from home 3-4 days per week. That doesn't leave much time to devote to just me. I am less of a social body and am quite content just curling up with a good book if I do have some spare time. Lately I have been trying to work in an hour of exercise. Not too exciting. I would love to quit my job and have more time for ME! H would just think I was being selfish, though.
