I Get By
November 18, 2010
Friendships are one of my dearest treasures. My family is spread far and wide, my husband is as supportive and caring as a spouse can be, but a grrl needs her friends and you know what I mean.
Without friendship, the last year would have been pure hell. Friends encouraged and sustained me, strengthen my resolve, and gave me a reason to go on (they still do). Whether near or far, through phone calls, emails, texts or comments, I felt the love. I still do.
Friends and friendships bring hope and joy to life.

Beautiful mosaic! Although, what's up with all the NORma photos? Sheesh. (just teashing you know). Anyway, I couldn't agree more and I am honored to be your friend. Truly, your friendship has been a wonderful gift to me.

I love your posts! I love it that I actually recognize people in your lovely pictures, thanks to my visit to UT a year ago, and your welcome to me to your knit night for a couple of weeks! I love it that friendship can span the miles, thanks to technology. You're right in all you say. Thank you, Margene!
