[quote=Anonymous]I bet she is seeking validation, but it sounds pretty obnoxious. Does she not understand that most people who work do so because they need the money? Wouldn’t we all love to spend a few hours a week volunteering and the rest of the time relaxing?? Stick is half-joking responses - “So jealous of the book and coffee! I’ll be reading expense reports in the office until I’m 70 unless I stumble upon a pot of gold!” Okay that was super lame but you get the idea. A friend of mine has both sets of grandparents nearby and a ton of money. We have no family and not nearly as much spare cash. She and her DH take many, many weekends away. She was telling me how it’s so important for my marriage and I should really plan at least one over night a month with DH. I eventually had to tell her that unless she was offering to have my 3 kids for a weekend, she had to stop with the vacation talk because we just can’t afford it. [/quote]
