JEANIE'S GLASSES

I have a best book friend. Well, really, she's a best friend in general. Jeanie and I have been best book friends since we were children. We would do anything for each other. I would give her my favorite book if she asked for it. Or if I knew she wanted it.
Jeanie and I eat lunch together about once a week. We e-mail and send snail mail. Priority mail. Sometimes I get mail from her and the ink isn't dry on the postmark when I get it our of the box. We send each other sacks, books, pencils, food, paper towels, things that cost more to mail than they do to buy.
She feeds my cats and rabbits when I'm gone. She gets my mother's mail and takes her brownies.
Jeanie gives me wonderful presents for my birthday and Christmas. Or just to give me a present for no special occasion. We like many of the same things, clothes, books, food, people (not many), places.
But Jeanie would not be caught dead in St. Vincent de Paul. She says she drops off donations at the curb but I would bet she mails them.
I love St. Vincent de Paul. I find the most wonderful things. Yesterday I bought 3 striped glasses. I posted a picture of them. After reading my blog, Jeanie e-mails to tell me that I have bought her glasses. She had packed them in her last donation box. If I didn't like them so much, I would mail them to her.

LOL, you're really friends, huh?

When my friend and I send SMS to each other, we always do it at the same time. Sometimes we comment each other about the same movie we'd like to see, etc.

That's friendship! lol

Have both a good week
