Life's Musings in the Middle of the Week

Friends are the backbone of life. Without them, life would be boring. It would be dull. It's only Wednesday, and I have enjoyed being with so many friends already. Sunday I met Meg at Panera's to learn about the changes at the district office concerning media specialists in Pasco County. Retired, those changes don't impact me, but they do impact others who are my friends. Good luck to you all.

Monday I participated in my Tai Chi class at the Palm Harbor Library, interacting with friends made in the past 16 months as a member of the class. Monday was also Leah's birthday - which we celebrated tonight at Chili's. It was also Samantha Slusak's service and funeral. She was only 23.  Devastating. To lift my spirits, I visited my Mother-in-Law, who is my Mother and my friend.

Tuesday I visited my other Mother, Mater, who made us soup for lunch. I was a little late because I visited River Ridge to hug a couple of the teachers who contributed to my MDA walk on Feb. 9th. Thank you, Diana, Mimi, and Grady - friends even after my retirement. Mater's daughter, Roxie, also contributed - my sister/friend. 

Today was another Tai Chi class, but first I attended the SENIOR FAIR at the St. Petersburg Coliseum with dear friends, Gene & Lou. We also had lunch with my best friend in the whole world - my husband, Michael.  Ken, another friend, and expert in lighting video productions, came along with Michael to meet Gene & Lou, and eat with us. Tonight, Leah and I celebrated her 24th birthday at Chili's and now I'm awaiting my best friend's return from a night time gig at USF, manning one of the cameras at the BasketBULL game. 

What will tomorrow bring? More friends, more adventures, and no chance of dull or boring moments.
