M to the rescue!

Really, I have the greatest bestest friend in the whole world. M is just so amazing and she makes me happy. How many people know that just saying 'bracelet' can make me crack up? Or that glass in oatmeal is deadly?! And why I crack up when people ask 'Round or square?' And don't even get me started on potatoes!

See, she just gets me. Talking to her tonight was exactly what I needed.

The little children that I adore were driving me up a flippin wall today. They didn't want to take a nap, or listen, or sit in time out... They were a couple handfuls for this mommy. And because my life isn't a bed of roses, the day was a long one. So after I ate my so-so dinner, I left the husband and kids in the living room, grabbed the phone, and called my M.

I got to unload on her, chat about things in our lives, and laugh. We are really good at that. Really.

I honestly don't remember why we started talking when we first met. I do know why we became friends, though. I think we got to be as close as we are because one of us quoted Harry Potter, or spewed off some random Irish fact, or we might have made snide comments about someone else... Who knows?! I just know that a little over four years ago, she lucked out and got me for a best friend!
