[QUOTE="Fran, post: 329240, member: 3"] I find that sort of vague plans intolerable. My time is just as important as theirs. I set times and my plans. If they have no interest in sharing theirs, I assume I'm not important enough for them to inform me. I set up my families holiday plans. I'm flexible if something concrete comes up but I won't sit and wait for anyone to decide what they want to do no matter how much of a patriarch they are. In that vein, sometimes I miss some of the family. They have lives and other ideas of what they want to do. It's fine but I'm not sitting and waiting to be summoned. I can't even imagine waiting for the phone to ring. [/QUOTE]
