more than 1 quick (~1 min) phone call every hour/1.5 hours is too much IMO

funnily enough I DO use dairy, just need other forms of calcium rich foods that aren't also counted as sugars. Will research

I eat dairy but it tends to count as sugar too (boo, I'm way over) so I want some alternatives. I drink a fair amt of milk!

OK, so we can still wear pants, with a nice blouse and a cute shoe. More makeup than normal. SoCal is mellow-dressy.

also, not sure what time she goes to bed, but sometimes a temporarily very early bedtime (5:30/6) can break the cycle
