If you love your job, how many hours a week spent working are too much? I think that home and family should come first, so as long as they're not suffering or being pushed aside then I guess that how many hours you work is up to you. Just make sure that you're looking at things from your family's perspective to decide, not your own. I have a SIL that does craft shows this time of year and she works a lot of hours during the day and into the evening. Does her family suffer? Yes, they do. She's too busy making things to cook, clean, or even be home. It's a really sad situation. Her kids are 12, 10, 6, 2.

If you find your perfect outfit but cringe at the price, how much is too much? If it's something that I really like and I know that I'll wear it a lot I don't mind paying a lot more. You definitely need to make sure that you have money to pay bills first.

When you're gifted with your favorite candy but no one else likes it; how much of it is too much? I find that when I have a lot of my favorite candy I'll eat it alot the first few days and then it will sit on the shelf for weeks before I ever touch it again. I have a BIG bag of M&M's that I bought when I was school shopping and I still have quite a few left.

You're at a party and have to drive home... the drinks are flowing and are going down easy... how much is too much? This doesn't apply to me because I don't drink.

Your best friend wants to come stay at your home... how much time is too much? Our pastor has a saying "Friends start to stink after three days!" If you have a lot of activities planned a few days or a week is plenty of time. After a while it get tiring trying to come up with something to talk about. I love having company but I'm always relieved when it's time for them to go home.
