She tried calling me tonight, but I didn't pick up. And I won't listen to her message until the end of this period of time (see my progress status— a 5% increase every day, more or less). Zero communication was my plan, but it bolstered my resolve to have just had a lengthy discussion with a friend about this when she called. I have so much empathy for others that it can be hard for me to honor my own needs without feeling guilt. Good for me for respecting my needs tonight!
