I Get By With a Little Help from My Friends…

…and this morning, my friend was totally Starbucks and its spinach feta wrap (MY LOVE), coffee and a banana.

I’ve been busy, stressed and over-committed (partially my own fault, partially just a lot going on) lately, but I’ll be damned if I don’t keep trying to stay healthy, even if it means spending more money than I should on takeout. I’m trying to enjoy the commitments that are fun, get through the ones that are obligatory responsibilities and live in the moment.

I’m also accepting I can do anything I want, but not everything I want. So, I can have a weekend chock-full of fun activities, but it’s not fair to Bailey to leave him sitting on the couch all weekend. So he’s going home today for some quality Grandma and Grandpa time.

Do you have trouble asking for/accepting help, too, sometimes?
