Quite a Day
Yesterday, I decided that I should start back to church. So on Sunday,I told God it didn't mean I was over being mad because I'm not but I felt it was time to try. I didn't want to talk to anyone so I got there 5 minutes late and sat in the back row. I lasted 6 minutes, but it was a start. The pastor's wife and another lady caught up with me before I got to the pickup and I had to stop and talk to them for a short time. After going for coffee and visiting the cemetery I came home. I wanted to take a shower tonight so I had to do a load of towels. I did a little cleaning and my son and his family came by. When they left Violet decided to stay with me. We do alot of silly things and laugh a lot. I walked her home and got back to my house at 6:00. I had been home most of the afternoon and my keys were burning a whole in my pocket. So about 7:00 o'clock, I returned some movies to a sister-in-law. When I left her house, I wasn't ready to go home; I wanted company, but I didn't really have much to say and didn't feel like talking. I had been thinking about my friend, Sherrie. We both worked for the State and I hadn't talked to her in quite awhile. I called her to see if she wanted to go for coffee and pie. She did so we met at Marie Callendars. Sherrie is perfect for those times you want some company but don't really want to talk to anyone. You don't have to worry about keeping the conversation going; just need to say "oh" or "wow" a couple of time. She never finishes a sentence; she just stops halfway through one and starts on something else. So, 3 hours later, I had only got a couple of questions in but it was just what I was looking for and the cherry pie was great.

i"m glad you got out and had a good time.
I know what you mean.....my best friend and I will sometimes go shopping or drive over to the beach and just walk. Not all that much talking, just some company with no expectations and no schedule. She knows that I don't really want advice, I just want to put my mind in a different place for a few hours. And we always have dessert, too. Something chocolate.
