Feel like I'm living the movie Groundhog Day...

Good job. It's very likely she will miss this if she follows through with her agenda.

I have the same thoughts... yes she has a lot of friends, but few of them are "deep friends". They aren't the type who are going to sit and listen to an hour's worth of nursing stories. My mom, who was a nurse, always said there were only two types of people who would listen to nursing stories - your nurse friends and your husband. I listen because I enjoy her and her stories, plus I do care. When we're apart I will probably have to work on not picking up the phone if she calls to talk or responding to that text, or being more judicious in doing so.
