Happy April Fool's y'all! My mom called me this morning and proclaimed "We got an offer on our house!" and I was so excited for a hot second, until she crushed my soul (ok, not really, but still) by saying "April Fools"! I'm so gullible, but I was really hoping someone wanted to buy their house which would've meant they were that much closer to being in our town, but alas, she has a twisted sense of humor. It seems all those I love do. Not sure what that says about me!
Anyway, no pranks on my end today. Just wanted to share a quick note. So this week I had a 40 minute phone call with a sorority sister who I hadn't talked to in about 10 years. She'd read a blog post I wrote and wanted to find out more about something I'd said. It was so fun re-connecting. I've also been emailing and facebooking with friends who I haven't seen in as much time, if not longer, and say what you will about Facebook being a time-suck, but it is such a great way to get in touch with people.
Life really is about connecting with others. It's not about the money we make or things we have. It's about how we feel and how we use our time and how we use our time to make others feel. It's warmed my heart to know that something I've said on this little space of the internet has resonated with someone else, which is why I will continue to overshare until the cows come home. And since I wouldn't know what to do with a cow if it did come home, you get to keep getting TMI from me.
And I'll leave you with this great little message another friend left on her facebook wall today:
