Ahh… friends…

friends2

I wasn’t feeling 100 percent when I went to work this morning, but I’ve gotten used to that in the last couple of weeks as I’ve been getting over this annoying bout of pneumonia.  I ended up leaving early and coming to work from home, as the fever decided to catch back up with me and I was burning up the office.  Suffice it to say, I wasn’t in the best of moods when I left work.  I hate getting sick.  I just want to do what I normally do, and no matter how much I tried to “power through” this… it’s not letting me.  So of course, I posted a whiney comment on my facebook.  And in true fashion, as they always do, my friends rallied around me.  Both with a mix of taunting and sarcasm and caring and sweetness.  Which I’ll admit – is the PERFECT combination to make me actually do something.  So what did I do?  I posted some lovely sarcastic wit back at them, stuck my tongue out at them, and then called my doctor. 🙂  I’ll be DAMNED tho if they are gonna make me take some weird funny essential oil cures or heaven forbid – drink water! ACK!  😀  hehe.  But I love them.

Good friends.  Where would I be without them?  Lost, for sure.  They kick me in the ass when I need it.  They motivate and inspire me when I need it.  They bring me chocolate, wine, silly stupid movies to watch and Kleenex when I need it.  They let me spoil them rotten and love them in my way.  I made a friend a little present today.  She needed some cheering up and I knew a quick sketch would do the trick.

Had her laughing and happy again.  Something that took me 10 minutes to do, and I made her day.  I love that!  It’s a total inside joke – which made it even better.  (yes – that’s her in the sketch).  Sorry J – if you read this – I couldn’t help but post it here.  But the joke will stay between us, I promise.  🙂  Now – of course she’s having it made into a t-shirt which is just even funnier.  Funny how my friends are sometimes just as close to me as my family.  I’d give them the world if they asked.  (so long as they share in the glory of being ruler of that world dang it).

Well folks – I’m off to go get the kiddos to bed, then cause a bit more trouble.  🙂  Goodnight Neverland!
