I have this friend. I've known her longer than anyone else in my adult life. We started out as roommates my freshman year at BYU, and we quickly became besties for life!
When we were in Utah the girls and I stayed with her and her family. She is the dark haired beauty on the end, sitting by her dark haired beautiful daughter!
Well Sarah, I wish you had been with me today. Not for the first time. But when I ran into the Cadillac Escalade in the gym parking lot, ruining the guys hitch cover, you could have talked to him while I cried in a corner.
As it was, I cried the ugly, sobbing cry while I tried to write down my information.
It's funny how having another grown up with you can make it better when you aren't feeling especially grown up, you know?
I tend to have really strong women for friends. Meaning, stronger than me. I'm morally strong, I make good strong decisions. But when it comes to mini emergencies where I feel like an idiot, not so much.
The best would be to have Jeff with me 24/7, to protect me from feeling sad. But he has to work, darn him. So my sister, or a friend would have been nice today.
I hope you all have someone you can rely on, that is there when you don't feel strong, but instead want to curl up in a ball and suck your thumb, you know?
Oh Amy, how I love you!! And I SO wish I could have been there. Because after all was said and done, we could have gone and gotten a Diet Pepsi and Dove chocolate and had a good laugh about the whole thing.
ReplyDeleteAmy, I ran into Don's truck today! I want you to know it is Ok to make a mistake! We all love you and we are all human!
