Yep, “toxic people,” that’s the one thing I can’t be rid of just yet – family – a mom with Alzheimer’s and the deadbeat kinfolk who are mostly useless (though I’m dealing better now than I did a few months ago with the deadbeats, at least; mom’s another story). Anyway, I look happily forward to the day when being “free” will happen naturally (or so I keep telling myself). The key for me is not to get overwhelmed and to slow down. Funny, I thought yesterday about a “no soliciting” sign for mom’s house, since I can’t get her to move in with me, and God knows who she might invite in or give money to these days, ha-ha.

Problem is we often adapt instead of questioning and analyzing.

Good reminder of activities we may not recognize as “time sinks”.

I just point to it and politely say goodbye.
