Regular Get-Togethers

There's a few friends and I who have made a point to get together on the same day at the same time every week. Having those regular get-togethers is SO satisfying to my social life, and every bone in my body feels content. There's M and Li where we watch the Hills on Monday nights. During the summer it was the Bachelorette, and these last few weeks it's been a movie with constant girl chatter over it so we haven't heard a word. Then there's Kristn and her baby boy who comes over Tuesday afternoons to swim at the pool where we alternate weeks for snacks and drinks. Now there's a Mom from Justinbustin's and Shawner's school, who I really enjoy, and her son, where we've gotten together the last two weeks on Monday afternoon to swim at the pool and drink wine, once at her place, and once at mine, and are considering keeping it going through the school year. At least until the weather cools. Another friend, Jen, and I don't always get together on the same day but manage to get together every week any way by working around each other's schedules.

Knowing I'll see the same faces I love to chat with and spend time with every week somehow makes my weeks easier and gives me something to smile about each day, especially the days we get together!
