Hey girlfriend! How's the hair? (ha ha)
Geez together with Alms it must be atleast 15 years huh?
I can't image how our friendship has turned out,
we are so different, but so much alike.
I'm so glad that I had a chance to get to know you,
you have definitely put "color" in my life.
Though there's some distance for you to start a new life,
you're always in our thoughts we hope everything is alright.
I wish you all the happiness that you truly deserve,
Don't let the one arm bandit get all on your nevers. (ha ha)

Coffee Klatch
Keep the coffee warm. It's a good day for talking.
You share a secret and I'll share one, too.
I have dozens. I've been saving them
for you to hear. Our lives keep us
too far apart for too long these days--
children and husbands and mountains of laundry
to be nurtured and loved and caught up with
before we care for ourselves, for our friendship.
It's always there, though, a strong, silent heartbeat
hidden in our routines. So I'll bring the coffee cake--
or maybe you'd like danish-- and you keep the coffee warm.
It's a good day for talking.
-Poem by Laurie Creasy

Hoping someday the three of use can get together again
