Now Playing: "It's My Life" by Talk Talk on Awesome 80's

Sometimes life hands you an unexpected gift. I had one last night when I got a phone call from a friend I hadn't talked to in a couple of years. I've known Jeff since I was 15. He was my first boyfriend, and even after all these years, we've stayed friends. I consider him one of my best friends, even though we haven't talked much in the past few years. But when we do talk, it's like we've never lost touch because we pick right back up where we left off, which for me, is a gift in my life.

Jeff also had me looking at a few things in my life that need changing. Sometimes a person just needs a friend to point out that certain things in life shouldn't be harbored within the heart, but let go. And Jeff is one of the few people that I'd actually listen to when that is pointed out. So now I have a bit of interior work to do, which won't be easy, but as it was pointed out to me last night, keeping hold onto those things is a waste of time and energy. :)

On the fiber front, I've done a bit of fleece washing, but nothing else. Suddenly, it has become hot and sticky here. The best thing I can do each afternoon is take the kids outside to the pool, and relax. Yes, it's a tough life. hee hee hee
