Whoa Nelly!


So I've pretty much decided I'm a busy person.

I always thought it was because it was so hard for me to say "no" to people. But I've really been thinking about this. It's easy for me to say "yes" because I love to be busy. It's tempting for me to say "yes" because I want it done the "right" way (I guess I would mean "my" way!). But dear Lord, it is waaaaay harder (and way too humbling) to ask for help. Thus when I get myself in an overcommited pickle, I cry out for mercy, all the while complaining, that "people just expect me to do everything"! Woe is me, right? Grow up Lisa! Self-centered and prideful.... help me Lord!

So ... 'tis the season for Baby Showers, Valentine Banquets, table rentals, floral centerpieces, catering, specialty cake selections, game planning, choosing door prizes, organizing volunteers, etc...etc....etc.....

In all honesty, I love event planning. It just happens to be that there are several of them all in a relatively short amount of time. And yes, at the close of this post, I'm jumping on the phone and letting my fingers do the talking .... I will be asking for HELP! **gasp**
