    What does that have to do with them not giving her a break?

    You're right that she does really love them, but she also deserves a moments respite to relax and spend time for herself. I feel a little bad about whatever she has to deal with now especially since she just ran herself dry with the trial and everything

    Lol, no, I didn't get it. I was confused. It's okay to joke. I think it just went over my head.
