The Icing On The Cake

I have never said good bye to so many people, so many times! Usually when I move, there is a dinner, or going away party and I go. I suppose this is a testament to the community I live in now, and partly it is because I have so much family and we are close, but I do have a good friend too and I will miss her.

I cannot remember the last time I met another woman who enjoyed the same books and movies I do, or who likes to discuss politics, or history, or current events that I am interested in.

Friends are the icing on the cake of life. Families spring from the same batter, and neighbors grow up around you, but a friend like Barb is truly a gift and I am more than grateful.

She is a huge blessing in my life.
