Just random thoughts, events, and daily grind of my life for all to enjoy, loathe, or whatever...

Good evening, my darlings. Here we are once again coming up on the end of another week. Just one more day to go. This morning, we had a french toast breakfast at work. One of our drainage plancheckers came around on Tuesday asking for a dollar from everyone and this was the result. It was so nice. Well, come on in and let's us have a nice visit, shall we? I have refreshments as always, so what'll it be?
My brother posted a picture on FB of my niece and nephew. (I warned you, I like to write about them.) The picture was just precious. It captured quite clearly, my niece's adoration and love for her big brother. It was so sweet is just about broke my heart. I'm so looking forward to them coming for a visit in May. We shall have a fine time.
Something else I am looking forward to is a reunion with two very dear friends. I haven't seen them since the 10th (sophomore) grade. They were my life line that year. I went to church school from 6th grade forward. Our local church school only went to the 9th grade. My mom didn't think I could handle boarding school yet, so I packed up and went to live with friends of our family in Napa, CA. That is where I met these two dear souls. I don't quite remember how it is we came to be such good friends, I just know that we were. About half way through the year, the people I lived with (who were like second parents to me), went through a divorce. When I heard what was happening, I felt like I had been blindsided. They were the couple least likely to, ya know? These two friends may not realize this, but they kept me going during this time. I was rarely ever "home" after that. I (and the couple's daughter) stayed with friends and people in the church. It was a very crazy time. They kept me sane with our every day, teen-age insanity. They made me laugh when I was crying inside. Their friendship held me together and I am grateful for it. This July, I will be traveling up north to spend some time with these two great friends and I am so excited. I just want to laugh and reminisce...and reminisce and laugh.
I have been blessed with great friends from my past and I have been blessed with great friends in the here and now.
Make new friends
But keep the old
One is silver
And the other gold.
I hope you are as blessed as I am. Ok. I'm done.
Sweet dreams to all...
