Saying no is tough - but you gotta ask yourself, "who are you really afraid of disappointing?" I find that it normal works it's way around to not wanting to disappoint myself. I fear that if I say "no" then that person will in turn do something to "get back at me". It's a bad habit, and a really hard one to break. You've got such a big heart, Karla, shower yourself with some of the love you show everyone else!!! Happy New Year!!
