A lunch bunch

Normally I don't post photos of people who aren't "mine" to post but I thought these gals were all mature enough to handle "getting posted." This was photo #1 and in photo #2 a big gust of wind came up and totally gave us that "women in a wind tunnel" effect. These gals are, left to right: MWW, VSG, D_H, GGE, PGB and GCH. I need to get them all a copy of this lovely photo!

At my friend Sheila's funeral, someone mentioned that Sheila had gone to lunch every year with a group of ladies who were also born in Sheila's birth month. So I approached GCH, whose birthday is the day after mine, and proposed that we get a few gals together and "do lunch" in honor of our birthdays. G loved the idea. So she invited two friends and I invited two friends. We all know one another and all of us have spring birthdays. We met for lunch at Ted & Allen's in one of the Tri-cities. We had a great time.

At Sheila's funeral, the thought stood out to me that life is short and I should enjoy and be mindful of and engaged with the people around me while they're around. So, here's to Sheila and her fun idea!
