If someone phones that I don't want to talk to right now or a number I don't know calls, I don't answer. They can leave a message if they want to or not. I'll get back to them when I feel like talking. There are days when I just don't feel like talking. There are times I don't want to talk to certain people. I have a friend who keeps inviting me to her church and I don't want to go, so I'm not answering her calls right now. There's lots of times when I don't answer the phone. I will answer if my kids call or if 2 of my best friends call. Anyone else, probably not.
