Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other gold…

I haven’t been feeling that great (just a cold) and have temporarily lost my crafty mojo, so I wasn’t sure what today's bloggy blog entry would be about. But then it hit me: take a moment to write and reflect on old friends and good times. Sometimes life sends you a nice surprise…thanks to the interwebs. A couple of weeks ago I was so happy to hear from my college bff Amy. Unfortunately, we haven’t been in touch for (too) many years. But, now we have been emailing back and forth and it just seems natural to talk to her. It has been so fun to get to know her again and learn about her life. She is super smart and is a college professor on the east coast. I love it.Here is a pic of me and Amy at our sorority initiation in <ahem> 1984. Yikes, yes, kids I was really 19 years old once…A long, long, long time ago. Aren’t we adorable? I think so.

Mz. Amy doesn’t know that I saved the totally awesome, rad, bitchin’ clipboard she made me all those years ago and still admire it! She is quite crafty, don’t ya think?

I am so delighted that we are back in touch. Isn’t it nice to have friends who knew us when? These crazy girls went through a lot together. I am having some flashbacks right now that involve champagne…hmmmm.

Do you have any old friends that would love to hear from you? Make a card! Send a letter! Let me know what happens…I know you would make someone’s day.

I’m so glad you found me again, Amy! Thank you. Smile.
