At my job I am over our office expansion in Wichita Falls. I usually travel to that campus about one time each week. To help break up the drive (it is about 2 hours), I sometimes go to Bowie (a little more than half way) the night before. One those occasions, I spend the night with my Uncle and Aunt and 99% of the time meet 4 girlfriends for dinner.
Sandy: we have been friends since kindergarten and have remained close ever since. Kristal: we attended church together from 6th grade on and also were very close--then and now. Deanne: we went to kindergarten together but separate elementary schools, so we did not become close friends until Junior High. She was my first college roommate...again--we have remained close. Courtney: she lived behind me--horse pasture separating our two houses but would meet at the fence on a regular bases. She is a great friend. During the most recent dinner (Courtney was unable to attend this one) our lively conversation turned to the fact that we are so very lucky to have such lifelong friends. We have been in each other lives for decades. Every time we get together it warms my heart. Needless to say we laugh. We have been part of each other’s lives for decades. How many people can say that? We do a lot of “remember when” and 99% of the time we are laughing at ourselves. Our conversations have turned from cute boys and making the drag to hot flashes and colonoscopies. But we refuse to admit we are older….of course we are so surprised how some of our classmates are starting to look old….but not us….we are ageless……….except for the hot flashes and colonoscopies.
