All of y'all are crazy. I mean that in the nicest possible way.
If you are reading this and you are not in the habit of reading the comments, start now. They are way funnier than the show.
The coffee's on. It's Friday.
I forgot to take the trash out again. That's annoying. I could run out in my flannel pajamas right now and drag it down to the curb.
Who thinks that will happen?
The garbage trucks used to come after 9 on Friday mornings. In those days I could get up, have coffee, poke around the house, and then remember that it was trash day. But not anymore! Now I have to take it to the curb on Thursday evening if I'm gonna do it, because these industrious men come around between 6 and 7 in the morning! If my alarm doesn't wake me on Fridays, I bolt out of bed at the crash and bang of the garbage truck slamming the neighbor's cans around. Then it's too late and I climb back into bed anxious and angry.
That is no way to wake up on a Friday.
On Friday, you should wake up happy.
Praise be to the Most High, the weekend is upon us! (and the angels sing)
The only thing bad about the weekends, is that they precede another week.
But I won't think about that now.
Today I am going to the gym with my sweet friend and cousin, Jenine. We hardly ever get together anymore, but we used to be inseparable. I am very excited to spend some time with her!
Friendships are funny that way. I was just chatting with Celise about this last night. The people that I see frequently, are the people that have kids my boys play with... And women who train in martial arts with me, or come to bible study.
You know, women who run in the same circle. (I just re-read that line and chuckled because I really do run in circles!)
Like Patsy, she used to live on the same street and our kids loved to play together. Then she moved a few miles and the kids got older...and BAM...I never see her. It's odd.
When I am 50 and my kids have lives of their own, it will be interesting to see what my friendships look like.
Kara and I will still be in the same bible study, with a room full of new women. We'll be asking one another "Where did all the old group go?"
And then we'll wear gold lame on that cruise.

Ok, I can tell you are not taking me seriously here - no where do I see:
Buy Swiss chocolate
on your list of to do's, today! You should count as exercise carrying trash anytime you are lugging bags of wrappers to the street for pick up.
It would also be hard to think you friendless when you always have a fine assortment of Swiss chocolate on hand. Perhaps those relatives and friends moved closer to those whom did have the desired assortments on hand.....? Nothing like being nearer the source when you need a quick hit of Lindt or Tobler.
And being 12 hours off my schedule today - I hope the local store is still open - I think I need a Lindt with hazelnuts. So, I shall depart, cane in hand (if you didn't read the ending comments to Kelly's postyesterday, you don't know why!) to sniff the volumous candy aisles.
I can alway exercise tomorrow...... My doctor will be proud to know I did.
Can I come on the cruise?
Of course, you should know that I will not be wearing gold lame.
But I will bring swiss chocoate.
