@evacide - Ooof. Nail on the head with this one. I feel this completely.
-
@evacide oh no.
@joncamfield I am so lucky that this is my life, but also I need to say no to more things.

@evacide was thinking "well, I"m pretty good at not doing that" except this morning's dream was ALL about having signed up for too many things
