Baby steps to mortgage freedom for beanielou.

beanielou

I have made the decision to take a wee bit of a step back from the FB in the New Year.
Not a big step but a bit.
In March when we all stepped up to the plate none of obviously had any idea that everything would still be much the same all these months later with as yet no end in sight. I personally cannot continuw with that level of commitment for who knows how long.  I make no apology. If I am honest it has taken a toll on both my mental & physical health.
I have made the right decision for me because I matter too.

If it's right for you, then that's that, beanie - and it even *sounds* right for you.  You struggle with meeting your own needs, it's not surprising at all that you need a break from the intensity of the fb for a bit.  I know you want to help, but it won't help your fb users if you grind yourself into the ground.  Sending many, many positive vibes, to you and yours.

Good decision for you I agree. It’s been very full on, you can’t carry it on indefinitely. I know that decision won’t have been taken lightly xx

I’m so pleased you’ve made the right decision for your health and well being Beanie. 

You do so much and you need to do what’s best for you. 👍

I'm glad that some of the responsibility will be taken by someone else Lou.  The old saying about flogging a willing horse to death is, unfortunately, true, and you deserve better.  (((hugs))) XX

The FB have been lucky to have you doing so much through the Pandemic , time to pass it on Beanie . 

As SA says I am sure the decision was made with regret.

Good, I am very pleased.  Much like oxygen masks in a plane you have to take care of yourself first Beanie.  You have done so so much this year for them.

It sounds like the right decision for you Beanie and time that someone else took over some of the responsiblity. You've served them well and will continue to do what you can I know, but if it's affecting your well being then it's definitely time to take a step back.

Happy New Year's Eve  🎉🎉🎉.
