Friends

Last night I had dinner with 7 wonderful women that I made friends with 3 years ago thru the football boosters. One of those women was my sister in law, two of the women I had been aquainted with throughout the years, one of the women was a common denominator in my life as I went to school with her brother and her mother was my mail lady when I was younger, one I had met several years ago but never had contact with until 2005, one married a clasmate of mine and the other one I met thru the boosters.

No matter how I met these women, no matter how long I have known them, and no matter that one of them is a relative, they are all very extradorinary women! They are women I am proud to call my friends and women that are very independent women, who when asked to help out they bent over backwards to help!

As we go through life we never end our life with friends we began our life with. Sometimes we are blessed to have friends stay with us through out our lifes! I have been blessed that way with a few of my friends! And we all know that when that common dominator that holds us all together disappears (my nephew and their sons graduate this spring) we all go our seperate ways, no matter how we all say we are going to stay in touch.

Now that our one commoan dominator has disappeared we have a new common denomiator-friendship! Last night was our first group dinner date! It was nice to sit and talk and get caught up on each others lives now that football is over.

I thank God everyday for these wonderful women, and my sister in law for bringing me into the boosters, so that I could reconnect and make new friends with these wonderful women. They have brought such joy to my life and made me a better for person for knowing them.

I thank all of you and look forward to our monthly dinner meetings!
