It’s been said that if you have 5 really good friends over the course of your lifetime that you are really lucky. How lucky am I that I have pretty much had the same awesome group of friends my entire lifetime?
Don’t get me wrong: I make new friends all the time. My attitude isn’t, “Sorry, but I’ve reached my friends quota and am not accepting any new friendships at this time.” New friends are great… but these lifetime friends are exceptional. (And no, not that sappy estrogen channel.) I’ve known most of these girls since jr. high and I don’t know anyone who keeps in touch with their childhood friends the way we do and I certainly don’t know anyone who sees them on a regular basis. (Perhaps it’s a Norco High, 1985 thing…?)
I’m having a rough week, and seeing them last night for a Girls’ Night Out was the best stress-reliever ever!
No matter what life brings, I know these women will make me laugh, will be there for me when I need to cry, and will tell me when I’m being a jerk (I’ve been known) I would do anything for them – I love them to pieces!!!
(There are a few that make me laugh more than others…)
