We are just back from Lunch Bunch and a quick stop at the grocery store.
The ladies weren’t at the restaurant yet when we arrived, so we just drove past and jumped into the grocery store and out again, going back to the restaurant. They were there.
This was truly one of the best Lunch Bunches I remember. My long time friend, Linda, is a widow now. She and her husband had two boys and two girls. Both of her daughters were with her today. They are both truly lovely people. One lives in Greenwood and the other lives in Nashville. The one from Nashville said her husband had retired and that she planned to start coming to see the family here every 6 weeks.
We had good food and fun conversation with lots of laughs. These two ladies are very busy. Both are very young looking grandmothers. One has 6 and the other has 4. They are both very active in their grandchildren’s lives. It was fun to hear what they’re trying to keep up with on a daily basis.
I was a ‘good girl’ asking for chicken tenders and eating 1/4 to 1/3 of them, and bringing the rest home with me for tomorrow and the next day at lunch, whereas before I would eat them all at the restaurant. (Can you see me patting myself on the head?) :0)
It was good that we hit the grocery on the way to lunch because it rained lightly on us the whole way home. It’s a good day to stay warm and dry inside.
Best of all, we shared good hugs when we first got there and before we left – healing for the soul to be sure. Friendship is priceless.
