For the Love of Friends

July 4, 2016 by dorannrule

Janet at Nat Brg2

I have been in another world for over a week now, reveling in the visit of an old friend who came to visit us from Arizona.

We met when our kids were little and we were all young, beautiful and full of energy.

Bill and I think Janet is still young, fun and beautiful no matter the time elapsed and no matter that now we tend to nod off in the middle of conversations!

We have had her here for nearly two weeks! And we have been talking, talking, talking, and catching up on our lives.

It’s wonderful to meet up with old friends Dora. One of my School friends found me on “Friends Reunited” just think we hadn’t seen each other since school days, so we were around 14 yrs old then.. So we have changed , put on a BIT of weight hair greying and so on, but still recognized each other, and once we got into chatting we never stopped reminiscing about old boyfriends etc., Great fun. She came to Crete only 2 years ago and we still keep in touch. Glad you had a wonderful time with your lovely friend.

Hi Rita. I was thinking of you with this post since Janet was one of the children in London who were sent out of the area during the Blitz. She lived with friends of the family in a small village in Lincolnshire.

Has Janet left? If not, please come in the store before she does. You are right – she looks beautiful!

Think of it as exercising your jaws! I hear that tightens the jowls quite a bit! Enjoy!

It’s always great to met up with somebody from our past. Time to talk about the old times, back when without child or grandchild raising eyebrows.
