The girls were invited to a pool party today, and my original plan was to float around in our pool while they were gone. I wasn't necessarily excited about it, but now that the deck is safe to walk on, I wanted to try it out. That's until I got invited to the pool party too!
So, I spent several hours bobbing around the pool with my friend, enjoying some much-needed conversation. She misses her far-away friend, I've been missing mine! We haven't known each other long, but always have a good time chatting. It's easy. No work involved! Shouldn't we all be that easy to be around? I think so.
We both agreed that we're often too busy to find time for friendships. That most of the time we spend running around for our kids and families. Sometimes we don't get to see our moms enough. Sometimes we're not alone enough! It's nice to have friends that just slip in and you can just pick up where you left off, whether it's been 2 months, 2 years or 10! I am blessed to have friends that are willing to be too busy right along with me, and when we do talk, it's a worthwhile time.
So, I am sunburned and got home late to fix dinner. It's defrosting while I sit here and take the time to tell you what a fun day I had.
