Reconnecting
I had a jam-packed day of reconnecting with old friends. This morning I went to see Emily (hi Em!) and her darling little girl. We had a great time catching up. Hadlei had a fun time with Em's mom. She even got a manicure/pedicure.
Em and I got to reminiscing about our days at FHS and we were wondering about our friend Ama. So we googled her. And we found her! Em being the crazy chick that she still is thought that we should call her. So we did! When Ama got on the phone Em said,"This is going to sound really strange but do you remember Emily Oakes and Jessica Caughill from Faith Heritage School in Syracuse,NY?" Ama said she did and we both said,"Hi! It's us!" She was so shocked to hear from us. We swapped emails and phone numbers and all that good stuff. Hopefully we'll be able to keep in touch. Shelle let me know if you want Ama's email. I know she'd love to hear from you,too.
Can't wait until you come back in December. We'll have to go out to dinner!
I also got to go out for a GNO with a friend that I hadn't seen in an obscenely long time - like 14 years! We were best friends when we were in our early teens but stupid things got in the way. Thank God for maturity. We tried to go to the diner but it was overrun with teeny boppers and there were no tables available. So we headed up the road and ended up at Chili's. We spent hours talking about the past decade - man that sounds like forever. We had so much to catch up on. We probably could have talked for a few more hours but it was getting late. That's ok because that will give us an excuse to go out again.
Stacy - I am so glad that we were able to reconnect again. We were the best of friends when we were younger and it would be wonderful to get that back. You know I'm here for you whenever you need me - day or nite. Can't wait to get out and do it again!
I have learned quite a bit in the last few months about friends and friendship. Whether you guys are near or far - Stacy,Shelle,Emily,Sheri,Lisa and Nic - I am thankful to have all of you back in my life. You guys are the best :)Labels: friends
