Glad to hear you had a nice Christm...Hang in there. Glad to hear you had a nice Christmas. Sorry to hear that your New Year's sucked. <br /><br />Unfortunately family are like that. I don't know if it is right or wrong, I just know it happens. They expect you to drop everything to help them or their relative / friend. Juggling multiple commitments is quite difficult.<br /><br />Some advice regarding assisting others I usually ignore until breaking point (though time does make you wiser):<br />*You can only give so much of yourself and if you don't give any of it to yourself, there is no you to give out to anyone else anymore. (if this is confusing, then think about the safety demonstration in the airplane with the gas masks (put on your own before saving others)<br />* Give a people a fish and you feed them for a day, teach a person to fish and they know how to fish, inspire a person to fish and they will feed themselves for a lifetime. <br /><br />Regarding the reading thing, the only thing that jumps into my head is the reading / writing hotline 1300 6555 06<br /><br />Additionally don't forget that you are amazing and wonderful.Appleman1234http://www.applemansigloo.netnoreply@blogger.com
