Why do I have to be a people pleaser?
Since my m/c I only missed one day of work. I went to my parent's house for dinner last night. I am going to a baptism on Sunday.
Today my friend is coming over (I am working from home today and she is dropping by) and we were excited about it last week. Well, I am not too excited about it now. I just don't want the company and she has a newborn. We were supposed to get pg together. She did. I didn't. She had her baby. Then I finally got pg and had a m/c. Ugh! It's nothing personal obviously, I just wanted a day on my own to cry.
The only thing I cancelled on was a session I had for Saturday. I do photography part time. That would have been the one thing that would have actually cheered me up but I thought all these events would have been too much. So I cancelled. I wish I didn't. I really love my photography and now I am just more bummed out.
So, I am working from home today waiting for my bff and her little baby playing River by Sarah Mclachlan. Over and over.

Take the time you need when you need it.
Saying no may hurt others temporarily, but healing yourself is most important.

Perfectly said. True friends will understand if you need to distance yourself right now.
