Summer is such a great time, a time for teachers to recuperate, and a time to be with friends that are rarely seen during the school year. Met a couple of friends week before last, and we talked for over four hours.  We had been trying to get together since February and had a lot of talking to do.  This week, I met a friend I hadn’t seen in ages for coffee/tea, and she said they might have to post bankruptcy.  We hadn’t talked in months  even though she is dear to me.  It was great to catch up and talk for a couple of hours.

We had our neighbors over for pizza Thursday evening, and then a couple of friends came over last night.  (We ate really healthy!  She brought delicious chicken & veggie soup, and I made a mixed greens salad with baby portabella  mushrooms and then a fresh fruit salad for dessert.)  So, summer is a blessing because it offers more time to get together with friends and let them know how much they mean to you!  It’s a shame when life gets so busy that it’s hard to get together with those you love!
