[quote=Anonymous]The first thing you need to try to do is stop caring so much. Seriously. Who cares if you're yard is overgrown? You're successfully juggling a gazillion other things right? And you don't care about the grass, given the other more important priorities in your life, right? So you need to let yourself off the hook and genuinely not care. Then you can accept your mother's help as value added to your life, applaud her for being willing/able to do the things you don't have the bandwidth for, thank her for letting you prioritize the roles that only you can fill (like being a mother, getting your degree, building your career...) The most important person who needs to not care about this stuff is you - and you're not quite there yet. But anyone can cut grass - so let her! Welcome it! [/quote]
