Your time or their's

Gas, grass, or ass...

Ah, a golden oldie; wonder how that would play with today's pc crowd.

I usually like to help friends. I'll even offer my pick-up to help them move. We travel a lot, so I'm often not available. And I don't hesitate to say, "That's too heavy for me", or "I'm going to sit down for a minute and catch my breath". I don't hesitate to say, "We are going to xxx so I can only help until noon", or "I can't tommorrow, but I have time next week." I am not embarrassed if xxx is watch a movie or sit in the spa. If my plans that are in the way of helping a friend are not a one-time event, I might discuss changing our plans with DW after I get off the phone or have the conversation with our friends. But our plans are our plans and they come first. That's why I retired early.
