I’m not one for drama. I never have been. I never could deal with all that girl drama that starts as tweenagers and ends, well, never. I love, love, love my girlfriends and can’t survive without those relationships, but they are drama-free. I shook loose all of the jealous, catty, manipulative, self-centered, mean girls that ever entered my life and I have been left with the most amazing circle of supportive, genuine, smart, funny and down right fabulous women. And while I haven’t seen or even talked to many of them as of late, (family crisis will do that to you), I know they are there for me and I know that they know, that even in the midst of said family crisis, I would be there for them in a New York minute if they needed me.
I got to have lunch with a couple of them yesterday. Well, ironically, we didn’t even eat. We were too busy planning our trip to San Diego for our 40th birthdays! There are 6 of us who will all turn 40 in a 3 month period and we have all been friends since college.
In some ways my life is a total mess right now. I am a thousand pounds overweight, stressed to the max and although the thought of leaving Medium for 5 days terrifies me, I am so excited for this trip! I really need it and can’t wait to spend some good, quality face time with my girls!
San Diego or bust!

I can help babysit! When is it?
So true about the girl drama that never ends even when you get older – unless you surround yourself with other non-drama chicks! 🙂 I am so excited for you!!!! I completely know and understand the HUGE benefits to a girls trip!!! I LOVE my girlfriend trips! It is a MUCH needed source of nutrition for the mind and spirit! Can’t wait to read the posts that will come from that trip. 🙂
