Cindy, thanks for the words that I could do anything that I put my mind to,
but I just learned my limit and that is with sewing! I made myself crazy
and finally this inner voice said "Wait a minute, you offered to cut out
material, why did you bring material home to sew when you don't know
how?" It was then that I knew that some of the lessons from the books
I have been reading are paying off.
I looked at the Shephards outfit that I had been slaving over and knew I
couldn't face doing anymore! I called the head of it (who also is a tailor
and owns a tailor business) and I said I can't do this. This is giving me
a headache and I don't need that right now. I reminded him that I agreed
to cut material, but that asking me to sew outfits with no patterns, no
instructions and no help when I don't sew was more than I was able to deal
with. He was fine and said okay, did you cut them out and I said yes and
he said bring it to church tonight and I'll have the girls whip them up
tomorrow. No problem..
Now my friends, I have stressed over this and nothing but this for a week
and why? If I would only follow the advice so well laid out in the good
books on cancer that I read, I could save alot of stress and that is what we are
to relieve ourselves of, right?
I have many things that I do well, but sewing is not among them and I just
learned that it is okay for me not to be able to do everything and to say no,
and I must admit that it feels very freeing!
Hope all is going well for you today my friend, and don't look for any
pictures! LOL! God bless you, Carla
