[quote=Anonymous]I spiral a little when I think about it.

I am so stressed out. I’m sick today but life goes on.

My rich friend asked me if I want to do thid Christmas thing in the middle of December. Upon getting the info, I said I’d think about it. But in my head I’m saying nope. I’d LOVE to do this event. But my good friend has no idea what it’s like to me right now. I can’t keep basic trains going without giving my whole body and soul into my day. I just want to say no to everything extra. Even if it would take me out of my element or be fun or be Christmasy. I’m thinking of laundry, and hosting guests, and 700 things. It’s pathetic but keeping things simple and saying no keeps me more sane.

Otoh, she and dh are independently wealthy (due to extremely rich parents). She works literally to fill time. Dh does not work. They outright own their home. The aforementiomed parents (one spouses parents) live literally next door and are great helpers.

It’s nothing about her. And again I would love to go. And I didn’t take it out on her, she has no idea. But today was so very stressful, that I wished... we could have the un-fun stuff taken care of, so we can enjoy more.

Quickly want to add, we do fun things, had a wonderful weekend. Cheap haircuts are still pleasant, Free all day outdoor time, dinner out.

But how will I feel in the middle of December? I don’t know![/quote]
