The carpenter said yes, but in time it was clear that his heart was not in his work anymore. His workmanship was not as precise as always and the quality of some of the materials he used was not the best. He just wanted to finish the project. Instead of focusing on what he was doing and taking responsibility to build the best house he could, he neglected to stay true to his own high standards. He focused on his retirement instead of on the project. When the carpenter finished the house, his employer came over to inspect it. After he went through the building looking at everything, he handed the front-door key to the carpenter. This is your house, he said, This is my gift to you. The carpenter was shocked!

If you've been caring for your loved one in your home for some time, or if your loved one lives alone but is no longer able to care for themselves adequately, you may have considered getting outside help. Considering home care doesn't mean you don't want to be a caregiver anymore or that you don't love your spouse or family member; Though your loved one may wish to live at home, they may not like the idea of having outside caregivers come into their house. You may need to help your loved one understand why they need help and why this option is best for you as well. When you talk with your loved one about the possibility of choosing home care, make sure you listen to their thoughts and feelings. Put yourself in their shoes--it's not easy losing independence and freedom. Be sensitive and empathetic toward them. You might talk about burnout and how this will eventually happen to you if you don't get outside help. When this article was published, Price got offers from the media including Morning Edition. The day she was interviewed by Diane Sawyer for 20/20 the interview was taped for the following day's show of Good Morning America.

Don't hate yourself for having the thoughts. Gently change the thoughts to more life-affirming ones. Praise Yourself. Criticism breaks down your inner spirit. Praise builds it up. Praise yourself as much as you can. You're shy about your smarts and get easily embarrassed when someone points out how seriously you think about things. Aries may be a sign associated more with brawn than brain, but if you can acknowledge that the mind needs regular workouts--just like the body does in order to improve--then there's no limit to the hurdles you'll clear. Aries Mercury/Pisces Sun:

Make sure you hear people out before answering, because you tend to jump the gun. Relax and breathe so you can really take in what they have to say.

It's as if you walked into someone's home and every piece of furniture, every accessory was bought in the same store and assembled exactly the way it looks in the catalog. Of course, there's nothing wrong with having your house look like a article ripped from the Pottery Barn catalog (and for some, I realize, it would be a dream come true).

You have one, even if you don't recognize it yet! Don't shop for head-to-toe outfits, and don't hang complete outfits in your closet. Instead, buy a fresh new piece that speaks to the current fashion moment, and make sure the color and style mix well with at least two pieces you already own.
