July 10: Old Friends

It is fascinating looking back on the journeys my life has taken me on, and the people I've met along the way. One of the most remarkable people I've met (originally we met in Wisconsin as high schoolers, and then we reunited in Massachusetts as adults) moved to Tennessee a few years ago, and I haven't seen her since then. She came up to Massachusetts for a visit, and I was able to meet up with her on Saturday (and her husband, and her new baby!). In addition, a woman who used to attend the church that my friend and I worked at in Needham was there. It was a delightful little reunion, catching up on how our lives had changed since we last saw each other. Even though it took over an hour to get there, and socializing has been hard since the pandemic, I pushed through my anxiety and had a delightful time. It certainly helped that the house where we met up has about a dozen adorable free range chickens, including a silkie (they're the ones with little poof balls of white feathers on their heads) named Stevie Chicks! 

With delight,
