I just read Draz's post on friends and BFF's... I guess (I know) I am really lucky because I have 7 women at least who I consider to be BFF's (not including some family members)... They are all friends in different ways and for different reasons... 3 from elementary school, 1 in Florida (one of my godsisters) and another 3 whom I consider to be my BF's here in Richmond... I just treasure them so much - all of them - it's tough work to keep friends going strong, but worth every second. And I love that we ebb and flow, like tides d0 - some I only talk to a few times a year but when I do it is like we pick up where we left off without a stumble... others I talk to weekly and then some daily... I remember so clearly growing up my dad telling me when I left to go to boarding school that it was going to be my responsibility to keep my friendships strong. I kind of understood that then, but I really do now - I can't wait for them to call me or email me, if I want them to stay strong friends, I have to make the effort... Easier said than done sometimes - and I drop the ball a lot, but I really am so thankful for all of the friends I do have. I know that they will be there for me (and are). So thanks to all of you who know who you are!

I am glad you had a great weekend Sarah!
I am about 45 minutes away from St. Augustine although you will probably not have any spare time. I just wanted to let you know in case you did have a few minutes to meet for coffee or something.
I am so sorry for your loss---(((hugs)))
Looks like you all had a great time! I have family that lived in Maryland and it was just such a pretty state.. Have a safe trip to St. Augustine!
Looks like a great place. Glad to see you enjying yourself
I am south of SA and normally it would not be a problem and I would have happily driven to Jacksonville but unfortunately, I have a 3:30 appointment with an Attorney regarding my fathers estate and that is about 1 hour south of where I live in Ormond Beach!
Let me know your plans for the July Memorial Service and I will do my best to move heaven and earth as I'd love to meet up with you and I am not afraid of driving so don't worry about that!
I love MD crabs! My family used to go to OC every year for vacation and it always involved multiple all you can eat crab trips! I am so glad that you enjoyed your weekend! <3
You look great, Sarah. And I couldn't agree more that friends are key to keeping life sane.
I'm very sorry for your loss. I hope some time with your family and friends helps you.
I wish I was there to hug you...be well...my sweets.
I'm so sorry for your loss. He sounds like a wonderful man. Big hugs.
Lovely to have chill time! Looks like it was very nice!
