A Nice Surprise

This morning I was painting our bedroom when the phone rang. Talk about feeling saved! It was my oldest friend, I will call her Kinder Buddy because that is where we met, kindergarten. She is in town! Her husband is at a conference so she came along for fun. We met at Maggiano's for lunch and then shopped all afternoon. It was so much fun! We chattered about our memories of our childhood. We were in Girl Scouts together (her mom was our troop leader) and we spent time together often. We chatted about slumber parties, kindergarten, our families, etc. I couldn't help but wish for a moment that I never left Texas. That was such a SHITTY move. I remember thinking about all my great friends in Texas and wishing I could be with them each day I went to junior high. I think I masked it well. I "moved on" because that was the only choice, but I can't help but miss that great place in Texas. Kinder Buddy and I had a great time horsebackriding and watching movies all night.

She lives in Lubbock, Texas. Can you imagine? We giggled about my decision to move to NC and her excitement about leaving Texas ASAP...even though she just bought a great house with a kitchen that would make Hubby cum! Ha!
Happy Monday!
