My nurse friend...

I have had a tough week...seems as if things still do not seem as reality to me yet but it will hit soon enough.  I am blessed with many friends.  We are all so busy with life and distance keeps us from seeing one another each day...and time is always a factor.  (another lesson ringing true this week...there never is enough time) 

But one thing I know to be for certain...God has sent wonderful people in my life who are true friends.  These friends are not folks I see as much as I would like...maybe at some point we were on a more common path just to get acquainted....I know we all have this occur in our lives. 

Tonight I want to share about a "sister" of mine.  I will refer to her as my nurse friend.  See, in my other friend circles it takes way too long to explain how we became friends or who a certain friend is...so outside of my friendship with her, all of my other friends will hear me make reference to my nurse friend. 
Some of you may be totally confused at his point...heeheeheehee

Anyways, back to the point of my rambling...weeks like this remind me of why my nurse friend means so much to me.  She always shows up.  The best part is you just pick up where you left off. 

When I was in the hospital with Chloe Jo, in my messed up sick state, I remember texting her from my bed asking if I was going to die.  Your brain is a funny thing...as sick as I was, I still managed my random texting friendship to get me through it.  As bad as it all was, I always knew she would tell me truth whether good or bad.  Living with David and his paranoia about bringing a fragile preemie home to raise has caused lots of crazed questions of what to do so we do not frequent the ER every time something happens.

My nurse friend is a loving wife and mother...she has the absolute strangest phone etiquette with her mother...and is the best BINGO caller girl that I know.  She loves her job.  She sends the MOST random text messages:) (which happen to be one of my favorite things  She also makes me LAUGH OUT LOUD!

We were on the subject of Christmas one night this week...she tells me that her husband said next year they were going with the motto...one thing you want, one thing you need, one thing you wear, one thing you read.  

Tonight's random text...Maybe you could use a red solo cup:)  I ask her r u talking to me?  she says yeah, have you not heard the red solo cup song...I said no, but I'm thinking I should tonight...
Perhaps one of her greatest hits she sings to her poor children...heehee 

I don't know why I felt compelled to share all of the randomness we share.  I don't tell her often enough how much I love her and how thankful I am that she is my "sister".

I am thankful for ALL of my random texting friends...I can't wait to see what arrives in my Inbox next:)  Good night, friends.
