I really think we have to separate from society somewhat to feel completely happy.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17480046958714954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8631126949164443203.post-55280583752035231752009-11-02T21:49:13.176-06:002009-11-02T21:49:13.176-06:00Another "first child" here. I don't ...Another "first child" here. I don't think I expect perfection in my life, not in the little day to day things. Yes. I like clean and orderly, but a little bit messed up doesn't throw me out of whack (or in need of prozac!) <br /> I think you made a good point about the less money you have, the less stress, even though that really doesn't make sense. I guess it only goes so far - if you get too far down the "less money" spectrum, then you have more stress again! <br /> I don't have enough money to sign up for all the extra curricular activities, or decorate my house in the latest fashion, or try out the trendy restaurants, which in turn, keeps me from being overwhelmed with my life. <br /> However, I do struggle <i> always </i> with finding imperfection in my body. I am brewing a post about that...Andysbethyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04005340108039880872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8631126949164443203.post-5706636236695019102009-11-01T22:07:16.552-06:002009-11-01T22:07:16.552-06:00nicely said, but I have no answers either!

At the moment, my house is a wreck and I can't function. Tomorrow I will be cleaning, cleaning, cleaning! I've never been medicated either...very loving Christian upbringing, and we didn't have much in the way of worldly possessions. I'd say that has a LOT to do with it. Perfectionism is commonly found in first born and only children as well.
