I realised something today. I


I realised something today.

I don't like shopping!

For years I have dutifully followed Lesley from clothes shop to clothes shop...and from changing room to changing room.

I always did so because I thought that I SHOULD...dutiful husband stuff and all that.

But...today I realised that I didn't have to do something if I didn't want to. It's not always an easy decision to make...believe me!

So - from today...

If I don't want to go shopping...I won't.
If I don't want to go over my in-laws for dinner...I won't.
If I don't want to watch some rubbish TV program...I won't.

Now - this may seem harsh - after all life IS about 'give and take'.

But...why should I do something that makes ME unhappy?

Trying to do something for 'appearances' sake is not a good enough excuse for me from now on, I'm afraid.

There are only so many hours in a day - so why waste them on something that you don't have to do!
