Girlfriends are always in the Plan

If there was a message I could take away from 2015 it would be this, Our plans may not always go according to THE plan. Sometimes you just have to learn to go with the flow. More than one in this year has the been my lesson but recently this is what my girlfriends and I did earlier this month. It had been a moment since we last got together so we planned to go to a nice restaurant and do a gift exchange. one girlfriend was having some difficulties with some prior engagements and wanted to reschedule but she suggested that the other two of us still went. The other was just home relaxing and comfortable waiting for the word so she could get up and ready. I was already to go but in the back of my mind thinking about my budget. No, this was a group effort, it was all or nothing. How could we still spend some time together, have girl talk and exchange gifts? We decided to just go to one of the ladie's houses. We didn’t have to be in a hurry or get all dressed up. We could stay in our sweats, snack on some cheese, crackers, veggies and wings, sip on some sweet red wine, decompress with just us girls and then have our smiles back on our faces because of the positive vibes and lovely energy that we experience when we all get together. Being in that setting was not what we had planned on doing but it was most needed. Over the past 10 months the company of these two ladies has been the completion of my inner circle. Unique in their own way, we have a bond like no other. They have helped me feel welcomed at and at home in Kentucky. They have been some of my biggest supporters and shoulders. We group chat about things that happen in our lives on a daily basis and we always make sure to leave one another feeling uplifted and loved. So I guess the message I want to leave you with is this, I am okay with change. With this years’ unexpected change I have encountered some of the most pleasant surprises. My year has transpired in an unimaginable way for me. I have no complaints for the events that have taken place this year and I look forward to many more joyful experiences. I know I will take these on with ease with the support of my two trusty girlfriends.
