Things I…OK, Maybe I Didn’t LOVE This Week

Monday, January 16th, 2012 in About Me

This week has been… uh… interesting? That cannot be the right word. But I am too worn out to think of anything else. Earlier in the week I had plans to make fresh beans (from dried beans, you know) and on the way out of the house to the girls’ dance class (which lasts two

Sunday, January 15th, 2012 in About Me

Didn’t you love all those posts? I DID! I already have another idea for another subject in a couple of months. Anywho, I already have a “Friendship To Do List” after reading the posts: Work on making good impressions (I get sooo nervous with first impressions, and if I’m in a group of people —

How to make friends as a grown woman I have experienced something intriguing in the past five years or so. It is the social media friendship vs. the face-to-face friendship.

Making Friends as a Grown Woman You know what? I’ve always made friends easily. Blame Connie (my mom), who never met a stranger she didn’t try to send a Christmas card to the next year, or a family reunion she didn’t want to attend.

DO be friends with sexy flight attendants because when you’re traveling home to TX from NC and you’re all giddy from just having spent 11 days with your Lover who had just been deployed for 7 months, that sexy flight attendant WILL tell the pilot to make an announcement over the intercom telling the ENTIRE

Making Friends as an Adult I need friends. The older I get, the more I realize I need them.  There was a brief period in my life when I didn’t think I needed them as much as I do.  I met an amazing guy and wanted to spend every second with him.  It didn’t take

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012 in About Me

This subject of lady friends has been on my mind for the last few weeks, since Vanessa asked me to write up my thoughts on the subject. I don’t have buckets of besties. I have a handful of great friends. The ones that are hard to offend, quick to help and slow to judge. They
