We both look forward to this time all year. We have our favorite St. Vincent de Paul store to shop in, Goodwill, sometimes we see a good movie and lunch is always at the Hong Kong Buffet! We giggle and laugh thinking what “high-society” this is! Through the year we have a little Packer pool going and use this money to treat ourselves.
Clerks in stores often ask where we are from especially when they see our delight and fun as we shop...like two country bumpkins in the big city for the first time! When we tell them we come from 3 hrs. away and our hometowns are many times larger than this little town, we all laugh. What stories!
What camaraderie and friendships do each of us have that give us life and nourish our spirit? What friends fill our hearts? They are special! Life would be awful dull without friends, family and others who nourish our spirits in ways we wouldn’t trade for the world! What friend might you have in order to go to "the big city" to spend some time with?
