BACK TO BED-read

I think I should try to go back to sleep. I have a busy day ahead. I went to bed close to 12 and I got out of bed about 5:30. Trouble is I am busy all day so think I should try for some more ZZZZZ’s.
I would like to go on the treadmill.
I am going to my Faberge and decoupage class. I think I will be he only one there. The class is from 11 to four.
At night I play bridge.
Last night we went out for supper with very old friends. Hubby was friends with them when he met me!
Anyhow they got engaged just a few months before us.   We all got married. Then they had their children. We each had three. Our second was born just a few weeks after their second. Both boys! As children they were very good friends. They bought a city house close by a few weeks after us. She always worked. I never did.
They bought a country house nearby. They still have theirs but we sold ours many years ago. Now we are getting old together. Tomorrow he is going into the hospital for a bypass operation so we went out for supper to distract him although it was his wife that needed distraction.
Last but not least they just bought a condo in Florida which is in the next building to us.
The sad part is I never had much in common with the wife. She always worked and I never did. She is a very materialistic person and I’m not. She is still doing renovations  in her house. Their friends were always wealthy and they struggled to keep up. Hubby and I are down to earth and so are our friends. Last but not least I use to be religious and they NEVER were.
I think now I will make more
 of an effort to be friendly as it seems meant to be. By the way her husband is an absolute doll.
So it’s back to bed. If I don’t fall asleep I will get on the treadmill as soon as my hubby gets up.
Have a super happy contented day.

Its funny how you become friends with couples, but usually it is just ONE of them that you really like! In this case with you, it sounds like the guy. Its true that its nice to make the effort to be friends with her – it sounds to me like she could learn a few things from you! 🙂 I hope you got some more sleep. I’m going to try that here in a minute!

Old friends are the best.

It amazes me, when I hear of a person having a friend for so many years! We have moved around so much that we don’t have any friends we’ve had for anyways near that long. Military families (as we were) usually don’t. I hope you have a great time today! hugs, Weesprite

Why is it so difficult for us women to get a decent nights sleep? Your friends sound lovely, so nice that you still keep in touch after all the years.

It’s good to have old friends even if you don’t have a lot in common anymore, it’s good to share some fond memories of the past.

Yes, old friends can be good company.
