The last two days have been filled with so much joy and laughter for me. Days like the ones that just passed make me happy to be alive.
Long ago, in another life, I held parties at my house. When parties were not planned, people knew if they were driving by to stop if they had the time. Most would find me outside next to my colossal maple tree, enjoying the fresh air while I knitted to my heart's content.
Those days are long gone. My life has taken a different path than the one I was sure was the correct one. People stopped coming by my house to visit. People stopped calling, and I did too. My life became too hard to plan when I never knew if I would be well enough to follow thru.
I do not really blame the friends I had. They wanted answers I didn't have.

As the years moved on, my health kept me inside more and more. It was not a change I wanted but one my body needed. Over time I became used to being alone a lot during the day.
I talk to many people on Hive daily, but typing for twenty minutes is very different from someone talking to you face-to-face. Somedays, I am just too tired to type. On those days, my friends are willing to voice with me, and I am always thankful for that!
If I get tired, which is happening more often, I tell my friends 'Good Bye!" They know they will hear back from me when I have energy.
Over the past two days, @Grindan came to visit. She flew into town yesterday and will be here until Monday. It feels good to laugh so much each day.
One of the things Grindan had said to me was how she didn't know how to do girlie things with her long beautiful hair. Most who know me know I love playing with makeup and hair. It's the enjoyable part about being a girl. You get to play dress up your whole life, and no one thinks it's weird.
After Grindan went to sleep last night and the dishwasher was running, I watched some hair and makeup tutorials for punk-themed ideas on YouTube. I noted some cool ones I found and went off early to bed.
Once Grindan and I were awake simultaneously, we watched a few videos. I didn't have the twenty tiny rubber bands most of the hairstyles needed. We kept looking until we found a cool one that should work with what we both had to use for hairstyles.
We had many laughs trying to figure out how to do the hairstyle. At one point, my being three inches shorter than Grindan made the whole process way too funny. She had to get on her knees so I could see the top of her head. Ultimately, we both loved how her hair turned out, and I wanted to share how beautiful she looked.
Being around someone all day has been tiring, but I would not change these days for anything. When you spend time with someone when it gets quiet, you do not need to fill the air with noise. You know you are with a true friend. Life doesn't get any better than that!
Help someone smile today. It can not hurt you.

Some say.
Life is like a cup of tea. It is all in how you make it.
I say life is like cups of tea. It's who you share your cups with.
Don't miss the moment.
But after that moment. you do realise. Hubby will never let her set foot near you again.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
And very true on all parts!!
This article reminds me that life is beautiful when shared with family and friends!
Wishing you the best of health and safety always. God bless☺️

Oh James, the best part is finally meeting someone that understands why you have to nap for 2 hours at 10 am :D
Humans adapt or die and I am not read for that 2nd choice. Far from it but people like you and Grindan and so many others on Hive make my days worth getting out of bed for. They "get' me. and for me that is priceless!!

Awwn... friends and family are actually all you need in life..PS:love what you did on her hair😉
Thank You!! and yes!! I agree!
Thank you for coming to read my post and your great comment!!
You're welcome!!!
I laugh at the part you said,
I am three inches shorter than Grindan so she has to kneel down just so I can see the top of her head!😍😍😍
Life is really so much fun when shared and experienced with a friend or friends. No man is an island and no man stands alone. Well, I guess some does it but it's different when you have someone to share the excitement with someone.
I too am just like you as well before. Having friends over at the house, having get togethers, going to places.... But one day it just stopped because everyone had different stuff to do already, some had bf's and settled down.
But I am glad I am not alone because I have my eternal companion, my soul mate with me. It's just me and him now, we are like two peas in a pod because our son is off to college.
We are both each other's shadow.
Oh btw, I love Grindan's blue hair.
It's like looking at the blue skies and blue ocean.
Be well my dear and try to find happiness in small things.
You have a new friend from the Philippines!!🤗🥰
THIS makes me very happy to read!! Yes, everyone needs another pea to share their pod with!!
and I know! I loved all the colors in her hair!! It was really hard to get enough good lighting to show how beautiful it was though. Blue seems to be very hard to photograph!!
Thank you for your great comment!!
Absolutely, having someone around and making you laugh brings in so much of new and good energy. Good to see you in these positive vibes @snook
It has been so much fun these past five days. we leave to take her to the airport in about 30 minutes. It is going to feel weird with her gone now. But now I have all the fun memories to look back on too!! :D
awww beautiful history to read, i'm really glad that you got visited and had good times again, human kind is a social one, we often need interactions with the people we love, at least once at week it is good for us!
i'm really happy for you snook!
THANK YOU!!
we really had a fun week!! We leave soon for the airport. I am sure her Hubby and children miss her very much!!
It's so good to be with friends! Glad you were able to spend this time doing girly stuff. I've never been really into hairstyles or makeup, but now I have a daughter who is nearly done with cosmetology school, so I've let her practice on me and let's just say it has been "interesting."
I want photos!!!!!! That sounds like so much fun!!!
It was a very good 5 days. So happy we got to spend time together!
I got a new computer, and don't have all my photos on it yet. I'll try to remember to add one here if/when I ever get it all figured out.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
LOVE the Purple!!!!!!!
You two are liddle love fairies and it made my heart really happy that you had this special time together.
@snook I hear you and I see you, beautiful soul ❤️
@grindan you are just too beautiful and adorable 😊
Treasures both.
aweeee! Thanks Nicky!!!!
we really had a blast together. There will be a few more post coming!
Love it :)
It's so cool to see real live humans online these days. Especially when you've gotten to know them a bit. Very special
I'll look out for more 😊❤️
I'm glad you two had such a wonderful visit ♥️ Hopefully you will feel better soon

THANK YOU!!
You deserve so much to smile and have friends around you @snook ❤️
And I understand life doesn't always go as we wish and sometimes we loose friends along the way.
But for me I can't imagine life without you in it, it doesn't matter when or how long we talk... I just smile everytime I see you.
You are such a Light, and inspiration.. More than you know.
I am soo happy that you got to spend time with @grindan 🤗 she is a sweetheart and I wish I had been there so I could hug you both 🤗❤️🤗
Real friends are precious and they are a reminder that we never alone.
I soo wish I lived closer to all of you, but someone had fun putting me here and made me grew up far away 😂 Hahahaha
But I Will make it to you one day 🤗❤️🤗 love you so much
Exactly!!!
Someday you will get the biggest hug that I do not know if I will ever let go!
