spend more time with my friends

I’m not sure if it’s really all about the more friends the merrier!

I’ve went from just a few close friends, to a lot, and I’m working my way back down to a few close few again.

Sure, Derek & I have a TON of friends. I just don’t consider them the ones that I would want to hang out with all the time, or the ones that know “everything” about me type of thing.

I think that it’s more of a tons of distant friends, like on facebook, and there is just still a hand full of friends that I/we want to hang out with on a more personal basis.

Derek and I have found that we are very happy with just being together, and mixing in friends from time to time. It’s just what kind of couple we are, and we won’t apologize for it.

Friends are a great thing, I am blessed to have so many, I guess I just don’t think that I feel the need as much as before to have quite so many, but my goal was to spend more time with the ones I do have, so as for that, than I guess you could say that, yes, we do that!

I’ve spent years alone with just my husband, and with divorce it didn’t get any better. Now that my soul mate and I are back together after 13 years, we spend a ton of time with our friends. So with love comes a greater appreciation for life and friendship! It’s still a goal though.

I have made some friends this summer, and lost one or two, but the ones I do have I’m spending more time with. It’s nice that it is summer, but I hope to carry this on well into the fall and winter months so I don’t have a long cold MN season like last year. Still trying to keep in touch with people weekly so I don’t make anyone feel like that are not important to me and my life.
