Thursday was instructive. I got a text from one of my friends that her sick mother wanted her to pay off all her debt. The question was... should she, since she wasn't doing good. I am literally on my way to work but I text while driving to answer their question.

Once I answered the question... in the way they wanted.. I was dispatched. I wanted her to look further into it and give me more information and she said she was happy with my answer.

I appreciate the thoughts but I don't think this is like a vacation kind of thing. The truth is that I got to deal with the elderly parents when everyone else was out partying. Now, when I want to be out partying... everyone else is dealing with the elderly parents so... in a very real way, it kind of just extends the whole thing.
