So, at this point I think I just need to send out a form letter. It will make me feel so much better.
Dear Friends,
It's been such a long time since we've been able to sit down and catch up. I think of you so often, and I pray for you daily. I almost picked up the phone to call you today, but got distracted by something and the window of time slipped away from me. I know that you watched my kids last, had us over for dinner last, picked up my son from pre-school last, called me last, e-mailed me last, sent the last Christmas card, and numerous other things. Please know that my lack of response has absolutely nothing to do with the depth of our friendship. Thank you for continuing to call me and for always telling me "it's okay" and thank you for saying you understand. If you're ever in doubt whether I value our friendship, please know I do. Please assume that I'm missing you as much as you miss me. Know that I don't think, for even one second, that I have more going on than you (so many people say that to me), it's just different kinds of things. Most of all, thank you for your unconditional love and friendship and your prayers. These are the things that give me the most encouragement.
Love,
Jen

Dear Jen,
Meltdowns are allowed (or at least I hope so because I have them, too.) When you are burning the candle at both ends things are going to fall through the cracks. Good friends will understand. I do, anyway, and I'm sending you lots of good thoughts and prayers of support. Keep hangin' in.
