Old Friends

So its that crazy time of the year when you catch up with old friends, or at least try to get in touch with them, do some shopping.

One of my longest friendships, Rebecca lives overseas and is here for a moment, but has family illness to take any element of relaxation from her holiday. So yesterday I visited amidst box packing, taking a picnic lunch. The bizarre thing is that its more relaxing to see Rebecca overseas than at home.

Another of my friends, who I sadly don't really see anymore is not well and I wonder about our destinies and think how different life might have been if he had chosen a different partner.

Then there is revisiting the stores to take back items bought in the heat of the moment. My daughter must have been on a toy frenzy when she wanted a bratz doll. As when we did our clear out just before Christmas she packed all the old bratz away and they are ready for the next toy world or at least e-bay. At least we have a store credit now for another day.
