I think it is more that you are a responsible adult that just happens to be efficient in everything you do so people decide to throw everything they can at you. Since you love people you automatically want to help everyone so you do it. Your servant heart is a precious quality about you that I hope you never lose. However, this rarely gives room for taking care of yourself and that is where the balance needs to come...Gma, you have reproduced an amazing woman!! Love you mom.

You want everything to be/go your way so you micromanage everything you can to make that happen. By the way, you have had control issues even when you were very little. Do you feel like your life is spinning out of your control? If you can take the attitude that only God is the doer and he is using you as his instrument - it will be easier to surrender to the impulse to make detailed lists to have stuff go 'right' - realizing that all is right in God's world. Just a thought. love you more. Mom Looks to me like you have control issues. You want everything to be/go your way so you micromanage everything you can to make that happen.
