Lexi's Creations Challenge #51The challenge this fortnight is to create a project using the theme 'Just a Sentiment' Take a quick trip over to Lexi's site for all the details and we would love for you to take part in the fun!
We all have dear friends in our lives, some old, some new and each and everyone is a gift. I just re-connected with a very old friend who I first met in grade nine. It was such a joy to see her after all these many years. We had graduated together, moved to the same big city, lived as roommates for many years when we were single and too poor to pay the rent by ourselves, toured (hitch hiked) the British Ilse's together ( as as very young adults ) and shared a multitude of memories. Some good ,some bad, but shared none the less. Time brought changes and we grew apart to live our separate lives. We remained in contact usually through annual letters and cards at Christmas time and the odd phone call. Bless her for those phone calls as this fall we finally decided to get together. It is hard to explain how much that meeting meant. Some people you cherish through a lifetime, she is one such person and until I saw her I did not realize how much I had missed her..
