Thus far, my get-a-way to Colorado has been nothing less than perfect. Brandi and I have had the best time catching up. I have to admit that I was very nervous upon arriving. Twenty years since saying goodbye after graduation, and twelve years without seeing each other is enough to make anyone nervous. Our lives are very different than it was all those years ago.... but I feel like our friendship has picked up right where it left off.
We spend yesterday pouring over old photos and high school memories....and so many to memories that we both had forgotten. Big hair days, old boyfriends, and drunken nights of chaos, drama, drama and more drama. Later, we enjoyed a girls day out complete with a chick flick, shopping and nice relaxing dinner. It really is what I needed after a super stressful week.
Today, our plans include more girl talk... you can never get enough of that. We do have plans to meet a few other high school friends tonight for dinner tonight. It will be a fun evening full of memories, laughs and I'm sure good company.
Tomorrow, I will head home...back to the kiddo's and hubby. As much as I enjoy some "me" time, I am very anxious to be home in the company of my family. I will admit that as hectic and busy as my life gets...it is my life and I love it!
I am so glad that I made this trip and we are absolutely going to do it again without letting 12 years pass us by. I am so happy that time, family, and life in general has not changed our friendship. It's like someone just pushed pause on the remote for 20 years......

I know exactly what you mean...I have two high school friends that are just like that...the pushing pause thing :) Anyway, enjoy yourself! I'm glad you're having a great time.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised you two picked up where you left off-you were pretty much a member of the family back in High School :)
