As my boss always says, "Set your boundaries"
This was an IM sent to me from the guy across the cube aisle...having
overheard me telling my own boss how much I LOVE my job & how busy
it's keeping me lately & how much I don't mind that it interferes with
my home life.
anyway...as i was driving this evening, on my way to the grocery, a
thought popped into my head. i spend my entire day trying to make
people happy, only to come home and try to make my husband and my
daughter happy. don't get me wrong, i don't mean to imply that i do
so at the expense of my own happiness, we all know i'm selfcentered;
everyone should be ;)
and then, when i got home, i found an add that had come in the
mail..."you've taken care of everyone else, now let us take care of you"
i swear the universe is telling me to take some ME time. even if it
isn't, i'm going to believe that it is. :)

Self-care is so, so, so important! Because if you don't take care of you, you get resentful and angry and burnt-out...and then how can you take care of anyone/thing else???
SO very important to take care of yourself so that you can take care of others. I'm all about myself.
