Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I am feeling pulled in to many different directions and having to deal with way to many upsetting emotions right now.... and I do not see an easy way out, for it is my family (sisters, nieces, husband) that is leaving me feeling this way and I am honestly just trying to help out those that are in need of help.... but I am drained.

1.) How does one say NO to a single mother with three kids, all under five, when she needs someone to watch them so that she may provide food, shelter and clothing for her family?
2.) How does one say NO to a teenager when her life is falling apart, and her own parents are only contributing to the emotional stress, and you have been the Aunt that has always been there?
3.) How do you not get mad or upset for your needs seem to be left behind.... even though this has been the nature of the beast for almost ever?
4.) How does one find their own SANITY, and keep it, when others need / want your help?
