September 1, 2010 – 9:48 am

FRIENDSHIP Be a Better Friend Day 1 of an amazing Month of Friendship!

I love the anticipation of special moments. Presents to open, laughs to share, smiles to greet me and arms open to hug. I embrace the hope of good things to come. New friends and the lessons they’ll teach me, trust that my true friends will be in my life for a long, long time and hope for cures for my friends’ cancers (we’ve got to have hope, right?).

As a friend, I want only the best for my friends and love knowing they wish the same for me. As a friend, I want to accompany them on this journey through life – through the highs and lows, around scary Read More »

August 13, 2010 – 1:57 pm

Friendship Flower Gerbera DaisyWhat’s new girlfriend?

When was the last time you took a new road? Ate foods you’ve never tasted before or made a new friend?

Life is an adventure. It’s a wild ride through our 20s, 30s and beyond. From the changing landscape of relationships to possibly marriage and motherhood; physical, financial and emotional swings; to the lessons learned along the way, it’s generally not for the weak or whimpy, and definitely not for those traveling through life alone.

Thankfully we have our girlfriends. Old friends who have Read More »

Be a better friend – in the Highs and Lows

July 30, 2010 – 10:15 am

Friendship Girlfriend Molly with Girlfriendology flowerEver have one of those weeks? HIGH highs and LOW lows – and everything in between?

Last week my DH (aka: ‘dear husband’) was out of town. My plan was to diet, exercise and do lots of work. Reality: I did pretty well on my eating healthy (he wasn’t around to spoil me with carbs!) and got the treadmill in a few times as well as a bunch of dog walks. I did work lots but maybe not quite as much as I anticipated.

Why not? My girlfriends. I had a happy hour with Tina, Becky and Lynn. (High high) Wine on the porch with Anne. Another happy hour with the Cincinnati.com LOL Bloggers (thanks Chris & co.!). I had meeting with Bridgett and went to a movie with Penny. All HIGH highs. It was a wonderful way to enjoy the week by reconnecting with so many of my favorite females.

The big HIGH and LOW came on Saturday. I attended a Read More »
