Dear Amanda and Julie

Guess what? I haven't been away from home overnight since September. If it weren't for going to work and church and walking Charlie, I might have holed up completely in my house, nary seeing a soul. I'm not used to having to plan my own social life.

The other day Betsy and I realized the lack of fun activities in our lives recently. We decided to plan something on Saturday. But, we had trouble thinking of something exciting to do in February. My first thought was to call Amanda and see what she was doing.

Eventually we took Charlie on a walk downtown. But we must really have had the doldrums because we didn't even stop at Heather and Holly for chocolate or ice cream. Later we ordered a pizza and watched a Sherlock Holmes mystery. Whoot-whoot.

Girls, we need help!

  1. Oh my! I do wish there was something we could do together! I miss you. Maybe you could invite Caleb over for a visit, or aren't you that desperate yet??

  2. If we were there, we could have another delightful tea party! Although it might be hard to get back and forth today...I hear y'all were due for a huge winter storm. That's one thing I don't miss all that much...

    1. Yup. I got half a snow day today, which I am spending in my PJs grading midterm exams.

    3. For me, but not for the teachers and students who had a midterm scheduled for today.

  3. Amanda--- what can we do??? I'm sure we can figure something out even though we're not in MI.

    Amy, how about you call Lydia and find a time to visit LAKE MICHIGAN and do some girl time SOON! I miss the Land of Big Water (a term the guy at Choma Garage just reminded me of this morning). We have a lot of water here in rainy season, but it's nothing like those glorious lakes in Michigan!

    Life's been crazy here lately... I think I need to find my way to Macha, or just out of town for a couple days, soon too. We could meet part way-?
