Saying "no" in a firm, warm, but no-nonsense, no disputing-it voice, has got to be the all-time most difficult thing in the world to do. Once you do that-- everything else is a piece of cake. More or less.

Of course, you do have to keep doing it. But I've heard it gets easier. And I've even heard people don't mind. They may even like it, because they suddenly know what your limits are, and can work with them.

Dinah. I"m so impressed that you've begun to do it. I'm not at that point yet--although I do phantasize about it. Maybe I'll even start someday.

Meanwhile: Congratulations! seriously.
