lil_me

hope she's feeling better soon toochoosey

pigpen I am sure you are nice sometimes..look at the effort you put in with this thread for example..I'm never nice with a bee in my bonnet but of course I know that sometimes I have to be nice, if you don't compliment when things are right they don't know what to do more of, so I usually make sure I compliment when appropriate, you get listened to more I find when using the 'well that's great but....' approach.

pigpen

List is done.. you knew what it would be

NO SCHOOL TOMORROW!! WOOHOO!!!!!! Teacher training for the littlies, the older ones are all going though..

Who HASN'T made the obligatory smear appointment????? This is way more important than stupid batteries in smoke alarms..

I thought blimey - that has a sicilian ring about it - but I'm only joking... I'm truly grateful but don't like to feel I'm beholden or, in fact, feel I might be considered taking advantage (which I'm not.... but I feel...) - does that make sense?

Not sure what the answer is, but I would feel the same way.
The other problem is I would then feel even more uncomfortable about asking for help again.

lil_me - thats just what is required at the school - I dont think you are being hard or nasty - its plain fact!
