You know I have my friend in Louisiana who has been my friend since first grade. You know that I live in central Texas, where it rarely gets terribly cold. Saturday night, our low was going to be in the upper 40’s. I got this text from Sarah:
I started laughing and called her. I said “What are you looking at?” She told me it was her weather app and it said our high on Monday was going to be 21º. I said . . no way! I already knew it was going to be in the mid 40’s.
Then she sent me this.
Then we decided her app must have been in Celsius. She must’ve figured it out and she sent me this:
That’s more like what I was expecting. It did give us all a good late night laugh. I think we all need a friend who can make us laugh, even at things that aren’t really funny. Thank you, Sarah, for being that friend for so many years!

Oh Judy, I know the joys of a lifelong friend. I have been best friends with someone since 2nd grade, and without giving away too much, that would be over 65 years for us! We’ve benn in different states and even different countries, but the exchange of long letters and pictures kept us in touch. Email is something we are both thankful for these days. Luckily, we are both in Texas now and see each other often. I’d be lost without her and feel so blessed to have her in my life.

That’s something I would do to Yvonne! She’s so good to me and always takes things in stride and laughs! It’s great to have life long friends! Special forever!
Susan says
Gosh, that’s even chillier than it has been here! Hope you survive it. =)
Bon says

I just came back from a 5 day trip to a spa in Tucson, AZ, with my best friend Barbara and 7 other women that we have known since freshman year in high school, which was 40 something years ago.. Up until 5 years ago, we all lived in the NY metro area and we would get together frequently.. Now, Barbara lives in Missouri, and I live in north Texas. I’ve seen her more in the last 2 yrs, then I did in the previous 4, since we;re only an 8 hour car ride apart, I feel very blessed to have these wonderful women in my life.
And I was really happy to be in AZ last weekend when the temperature topped out at 52 degrees here on Saturday & Sunday!
