Friends

I just got back from a girls' weekend in St. Charles, MO (near St. Louis). I miss weekends like this-I don't get to have nearly enough of them! It's hard having your best girl friends scattered all about the country! I can tell we're getting older (ha!). We originally had plans to go out Saturday night to a restaurant in an area called "The Hill". I researched and found a great place and everything. About 3:00 that afternoon, we decided to stay in, order pizza, and play Texas Hold 'Em and watch a movie. J's boyfriend taught us how to play. He won. We also played some Chinese checkers. We watched a movie, but when 2 or 3 of us dozed off around 11:00, we called it a night! That's my normal bedtime!

"May there always be work for your hands to do, may your purse always hold a coin or two. May the sun always shine on your windowpane, may a rainbow be certain to follow each rain. May the hand of a friend always be near you, may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you."

"There are many types of ships. There are wooden ships, plastic ships, and metal ships. But the best and most important types of ships are friendships."
