>I love her to death, but she is very blunt and overbearing sometimes...If I don't answer the phone she calls twice or more a day.<
It seems to me that she's not being too much of a friend by being blunt or for that matter, not giving you much space if you don't call often. Does she have a life? Sorry to be so blunt, but why would you want to keep a friend that's causing you so much stress? What I would do is just ask her to please stop calling, because it's contributing to your stress. If she is a good friend, then she should understand this. If not, then maybe you should re-consider the friendship.
That's great news that you & Devin had an outing. Surely during this transistional time with a new baby & you requiring more rest, your friend wouldn't mind a couple calls a week. I would just tell her that daily calls are more than you can handle @ this time. No need to stress or be stressed by it, Yavonne. Good luck! (((hugs))) jan
*hugz* Yavonne - I also agree with Jan - just let her know that a lot of phone calls are causing some stress and are more than you can handle, but let her know that you do consider her

Yavonne, I am sure she would understand, as Jan said.
