There is whole back story behind this I'll spare all of you from, but a project I'm totally not into will be discussed and I'll have the pressure of having to speak my severely rusty Mandarin Chinese to a native speaker. I'm not up for the performance anxiety. Hubby knows I'm not into this project he's roping me into, either.
I wish my husband would let me be for a while.

Oh dear!
I love my H, too. Very much so. He has been away for almost a week and will return tomorrow. Although I will be glad to see him, the break from his expectations has been very helpful in just letting down and getting into relaxation. Mine works a full 40 hrs in just 3 days and is around for 4 days a week. He tries to honor my needs, yet sometimes everything feels like just too much!
Thanks so much for sharing. I can identify.
