I'm tired. I love summer. I truly do. But somehow instead of lazy summer days, our family has been bombarded with an assortment of activities and social engagements. It's all good stuff. It's fun things spent with people we adore, both family and friends.
But I still think I need a little break.
We have swimming lessons and swim team. Chris has golf dates and I have my tennis lessons. We have backyard barbecues, fancy fundraisers and cocktail parties. We have dinner with friends, birthday parties and family dinners. There are play dates and work functions. More, more and more. It makes my head spin.
By tomorrow, we will have had some sort of engagement every night FOR A WEEK. A WEEK! I can't even mention the amount of money we spent on babysitters for this weekend's activities.
I can't keep it up. The summer is flying by and I may be just too busy to slow down to enjoy it.
I think it's time I start to practice the art of saying "no."
Is it okay to say no?
