Friends

This was given to me by none other than "Anonymous" Cathy. I don't remember the ocassion, if it was Christmas or what, but I do remember she gave it to me as a gift. I love it also. Both these plaques (this one, and the one I showed you yesterday) have a good home in the window over my computer.

Cathy and I have been talking again for the last couple of months. We talk, via the computer just about every day. We've been getting along swimmingly. We live an hour apart now. But we have discussed getting together for coffee. We seem to have both mellowed out and grown up. We don't antagonize each other like we used to. It's the way it should be. It's been relaxed, comfortable, mostly happy. I think we've both been transformed a bit. Just by life. Life is too short, too short for fighting, arguing and bickering.

I've always said "you get what you give" and "what goes around comes around". It wasn't that long ago that I discovered that's what Karma means. That's what Karma is. I may be slow but I do catch on eventually.

Cathy was showing me Christmas photos of her place, the tree, the decorating and what not. She kept pointing out stuff in the photos that I had given to her. I had forgotten these things. At the same time, I have a pile of stuff she has given to me and every time I look at them I think of her. It's mostly pieces of glass which has added to my collection. I treasure these things. I'm gonna put together some photos of all the things she gave me.

I wish I could be taking photos of spring flowers. All I want for Easter this year is one or two of those Hyacinths for my kitchen window. They smell gorgeous. SW gave me a white one in a pot a couple of years ago. I put it in my front garden and would like to have more of them. You can buy them in pots around Easter. Easter is going to be early this year, it's in March. Again I miss doing all the kid stuff. Last year Mr. Man showered me with gifts for Easter, don't know where that came from. Like I say, this year all I want is a couple of Hyacinths. Or is it Hiacynth? My spell checker isn't working. Gone are the days of hiding chocolate eggs all over the place. Gone are the days of all the fun kid stuff.

Well Aunt Flo came to visit me today and I am just experiencing the worst cramps. No amount of Advil is helping. Those 2 months without it could have been enjoyed if I wasn't so worried that something was wrong.

So I'm glad me and Cathy are getting along. It's nice to have someone the same age to talk to. And it's nice to not feel like you have an enemy. I'll post the pictures of my glass collection some other time. Have a great day.
