Meet My New Friends

Do you want to meet my friends?

One of them you’ve met before when I blogged about Half Dome. See my old posts in June for stuff about Julie. The real her is being unveiled in the heat of the summer!

I imagine some of you are wondering why the heck we moved to Oakhurst. I wish I understood God’s plans. I don’t. But let’s just say, it’s been one year since we moved here and quite an adventure finding people who we might like to spend time with. One of my old friends who has known me forever said to me when I was whining and complaining about the lack of companionship, “Why don’t you just be yourself?” Then I met Denise. What was God thinking?

This is part of my sad reality. I am actually thinking of asking for a guitar for my 41st birthday so I can be like them....yes, my new friends. If this makes no sense, pop some popcorn and check out their video blogging. They are so silly. They are so goofy. How did I pick them? Or maybe, and here’s the scary thought, maybe they picked me! Or worse, maybe God picked them for me because God knows how much I needed laughter in my life.

The other sad truth is that I wouldn’t know anything about blogging and haven’t had any connection to the bloggedy blog world if it weren’t for my super silly, goofy godly friend, I left far far away in Colorado... Jill.... who loves me so much and inspires me so much.....she taught me HOW TO BLOG!

God has a sense of humor. You can tell by watching Jules and Denise’s blogs. Enjoy... and Meet My New Friends.

PS - I have supporting roles in each of their video blogs... Jules’ Friday entry (8/15) and Denise’s on Thursday (8/14). Maybe I’ll win an an Oscar to go with Jules Grammy.

Be yourself, an original is always worth more than a copy!

Friendship is a promise made in the heart, unbreakable by distance, unchangable by time.

Over the past three years I have had two of my very best friends move. I understand compleatly. This summer has been very lonely, so many of my "friends" belong to clicks that I am not apart of. Praying for you to find even more great friends! Nicole

You are fabulous and we certainly are glad we attached ourselves to you like little ticks.

By the way, We all have matching hair. I didn't realize this until I video blogged!!!!!

God has made me the type of person that only has a few close friends. But, to those friends I am fiercely loyal and love them tremendously.

You are the BEST "yourself" in the world! I just wish you would get yourself back to my part of the world!
