I've yet to see a client that is "not worth my time" (or my companies time). What do you bill at? If it is reasonable, it should be "worth your time". Now, if you don't want or don't need the money, that's another thing, but business wise, if she's paying what you are asking, it is "worth your time".
Imho, anyone that says otherwise wants to continue to be a one person shop or freelancer, and that's fine, but that is different than a business.
If you feel you aren't getting what you put in, then you should be charging more. Even two hours, of easy work, can be decent money.
Find a someone else to do it, add a fee for your management and getting the work, and viola, you have a "business" and are no longer just a freelancer. The best part is you make money doing nothing AND you keep a client happy.You just need to determine which you want to be.
[the only exception I'd see is if you are just so amazing that you can dictate what you get paid and only take projects you truly want....I've met one or two people that had that luxury, ever]
