I can't believe it has been 30 years!! Went to my class reunion with my best friend from high school Maureen. I was soooo nervous!! I don't know why. We looked at each other and said "What do we have to be nervous about? We're still alive, have good lives, and are nice people!" So we made our way into the hotel. "Who are all these old people? Certainly this can't be our class reunion!!" Wrong!! As we looked at the name tags a glimmer of recognition started. What to say? So original "So, do you live around here?, Do you have children?, What do you do for a living?" then there is always this awkward silence as you try to conjure up some fun memory from the past to re-link you together. I did get to see my friend Doug who was my neighbor and our class president. He and I walked together at graduation, and my friend Karen who has MS and is now in a wheel chair. I wished I could see a lot of these people more often because sharing those growing up years is a bigger part of your life than you realize. Well, I am going to make a very big effort to get together with my friends and make new memories together!!
