Friday already?

Phew another hectic week! Finally finished work for the school holidays and looking forward to catching up with things at home, taking a few trips, hopefully some writing and generally relaxing from the stresses of the last few months.



Also this week I am celebrating catching up with a friend I have known since I was 11 years old. She is coming to stay for a long weekend later today with her daughter. Looking forward to spending time with her. Hoping the forecast thunderstorms stay away so we can get out for some fresh air on the beaches.

Just a reminder for anyone who doesn't know to check out Write Club , brainchild of DL Hammons. You can win a hefty Amazon gift card just by voting! It's also a great way to take a look at other's writing samples and learn from them.

Happy weekend everyone!

  2. It's wonderful you're seeing an old friend. I still keep in touch with a few of mine, but truthfully, I don't have much in common with them anymore. I have more fun with my online writer friends. :-)

    1. It's tricky, people do grow apart sometimes unavoidably. I have some great online buddies too!

  11. Enjoy seeing your friend! I'm always really jealous of people who have had friends that long. I moved every two years as a kid, so I don't have a lot of friends now that I've known forever...

  19. It's nice to know that you've kept in contact with a friend from such an early childhood. All the changes you must have seen throughout the years with them and what a special bonding for you both. To think that you were only 11 at the time and now she's there with her own child, amazing. Hope you have a great time.

  25. I love my long-time friends. Being with them is like putting on sandals after wearing those ridiculous stilettos. Comfy and safe.
