Wednesday Moment

Holy cow - a friend dug out some oldie pics. Here's my gang at the Jersey Shore right after graduation.  L-R  Me, Terri, Trish, Helen, Joan

Young, thin, and so freakin' naive. We had no clue, but we laughed and we still are. Sadly, Terri passed away this year.  But the rest of us are now chatting via Facetime. We always pick up where we left off. We do book club. We laugh, and we express our current fears, hopes, and give virtual hugs.

I am very fortunate to have this group of ladies as my friends. They are my roots. They are my soul.  They count for far more than a Wednesday Moment.

  1. That's amazing the rest of you are still friends and talk often. I've lost track of most of my high school friends.

    1. I'm the only one who moved far. Everyone's in the area, one's in Jersey. I'm someone who keeps friends - gotta work at it.

  3. Oh, you are all adorable. I'm so sorry you lost Terri. It's amazing that you're still going strong together, though.
    Is this your spitfire group that had fun with my Trumpeter book? Regardless, I love you and your tribe, Joanne.
    Thanks for sharing this gem.

      And it's a small reunion right now on Facebook - I'm seeing faces I haven't seen since graduation day.
