TN - The Best Friends

I have to admit my friend Barb did start

out as an acquaintance and soon became a best friend.

 So many things happened.

As I was decluttering and destashing I found her Gregg

shorthand book that she lent me.

It seems that my great grandmother kept a "calendar" daybook,

etc., and she did it shorthand.

Well, isn't that cool we had that it common.

A skip or two in the generations but WE BOTH KNEW SHORTHAND.

I loved shorthand.

However, even with Barb's book I was unable to translate

my great grandmother's shorthand.

Shocking I know.

I returned her book because A. I promised I would, B. We're doing the

full time RV thing and she needed her book back and C. I needed

to let her know our future plans.

We are the type of best friends that can go for long periods of time

without contact and then SHAZAM pick up where we left

off without missing a beat.

So when she received her shorthand book, and my explanation thereof,

we made a date to get together.

It was a fun time a Chili's in Ellenton (our halfway point)

and spent hours there catching up over lunch and

a strawberry margarita.

It was so much fun and SO VERY needed.
