Things that other people seem to do with ease send me into a panic so I've had to really simplify my life and say 'no' very often. My husband told me he didn't like living in Perth because he felt pressure to go out and do things all the time, as if putting your feet up occasionally was a crime.<br /><br />I'm enjoying your 'less is more' posts.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07193896306650823769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307360448382903712.post-23287328304252109192014-02-11T10:42:06.958+11:002014-02-11T10:42:06.958+11:00we also have to remember that different people hav...we also have to remember that different people have different levels of madness...one woman with 2 kids may be coping less well than another woman with 5 kids or 8...and that is ok...some women are more domestically inclined than others and, some (like me) really struggle to stay on top of (or even nearly on top of) housework...<br />Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08214211692143307829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4307360448382903712.post-12553284617635446002014-02-10T21:30:12.081+11:002014-02-10T21:30:12.081+11:00But my question is always 'at what cost?' ...But my question is always 'at what cost?' And what I'm so very slowly learning is that while comparison can help us share life together, it is also dangerous because we & our families are all soooo different.
