I realize that I have the resources of a professional woman who cleans my house, a professional therapist who cleans my brain, a very involved partner, a mom down the street who is there for any emergencies.

I feel like not just saying I don't have time is basically suggesting that time will either arrive and give it unto you or it will not. But that's not how time works. So for me, I don't say it because it allows me to actually realign my values. Like it's either I haven't made time or I haven't prioritized that yet, or I'm going to invest the time next week in that. Or-

That's not a priority for me. It gives me the agency of it to not suggest that like, oh, there's just a dearth of time and I am expected to do all of this and I can't. It's like, no, you can do whatever within your resources as they are for any given person. Just do with your time what you place the highest and best value on. Yep. That's not to say that you should maximize every bit of time.

That's the opposite of what I'm saying. I perfectly respect people who are saying, I invested a lot of time this week in my family. I'm prioritizing my kids' practices.

I mean, I really don't like a passive aggressive CC on an email. Do you ever notice that where people think they're like telling on you or something by CCing someone on the email and you're like... Nope. Nobody. Nope. We're not doing that here. Um, yeah.
