Fast and stop. Stop is usually when I'm asleep. Probably not a good thing for me. It is beyond my comprehension that your MBFF would be upset that you are leaving for a vacation so much so that she cannot bring herself to call you like she used to call. However, I think you are exactly right--her little snit is setting the boundary--"If you cannot be happy for me, then we really don't need to interact multiple times a day." Who has time for that kind of contact anyway? It's exhausting. Reminds me of DD and her 18-19 year old self-absorbed friends and their phones in their hands 24/7 texting and being on facebook. For heaven sakes, adolescents, there is life to live beyond the minutia of their "conversations"...!!! Hope you have an absolute wonderful vacation. The kids' rooms look great. I have two speeds.

The one time I can remember really not doign anything was on a business trip I took to WA a few years ago. it was jsut over ngiht, but after the day at work, I got back to my room and literally had nothing to do but relax. I was forced to just BE. It was really eye opening because even if we are relaxing at home, our minds are making lists of things we need to do. I have trouble just “being” as well.
