Girlfriends rock

In all the rain on Monday, and after completing most of my errands with my sister, Barbara, I had dinner with a friend of long standing. Gail and I met at the University of Houston in the early 60's....somewhere down the path, our ways went in different directions and we lost track of each other. When I returned back to H'town in the late 60's Gail and I had a chance meeting at a Shriner's function. We were able to pick up the friendship - even better than when we first met. Through the years, off and on, again different paths, and just within the last year we have once again picked up our friendship. It is very comforting to have a friend that you can do this with. There is an unconditional caring about each other and we laughed most of the night away. To not have to make the trek back to Montgomery, I spent Monday night with her. It was like when you were young and you had a slumber party or such, today the kids call them "sleep-overs".

I'll be visiting another friend and her husband in December. They live in Arizona, and that will be another blog.

today's thought from Dick Francis - "Everyone jouneys through character as well as through time. The person one becomes depends on the person one has been".

enjoy your day and SMILE :-)
