When it comes to loved ones especially I tend to think about all aspects of an issue which can lead to worry. I'm not as bad now as when my kids were younger and still lived at home. Everyone always tends to think I'm laid back and calm, which I often am, but when my mind starts working it can really go into high gear sometimes.<br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a>Arlee Birdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453833569907892604.post-21590000323549194752012-05-15T23:28:00.340+01:002012-05-15T23:28:00.340+01:00I am an over thinker.

Some things don't bother me and I can be quite relaxed and chilled about but if I make a mistake or I think I've done something wrong I just keep over thinking things and worrying about it. Hubby would say I over think things too. <br /><br />xxKate Rigbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453833569907892604.post-67183261805252031492012-05-15T16:49:06.127+01:002012-05-15T16:49:06.127+01:00So glad it isn't just me!
