Wow, so it has been a long time since I have posted. Why???? Well things (like always) have been a little crazy, and I hate to just use this as a space to complain, so I just don't say anything. But something a little sureal happened tonight and I would be a little remiss not mentioning it here.
So follow along with me here. You may not have ever been in my position, but you can't say haven't dreamed of being here.
Here is goes. Tonight was parent's night out at my kids school. That means that you can leave your children there from 6:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. at the school and go enjoy yourself as adults somewhere else. Tonight, we were invited to the home of a friend in Luke's class.
The husband in this home coached my children in soccer last year. I went to high school with the wife in this home. High school!!!
Needless to say, we were not friends in high school. Not even close. Yet here she is, a parent in my school. Things have kind of changed. I am parent club president. Now, I am the big kid on campus. Now she wants to be MY friend. Wierd. Just really wierd. I like her. We have both changed so much. There is so much pain that has come and gone in our lives. Here we are 20 years later. Can we be friends? Somehow, I think we can.
It is all just really surreal. So incredibly strange. What does she think when she is callling me? Is it, "Here I am calling that wierdo Lori who is now Parent Club president at my kids' school?" because that is what I am thinking. "That cheerleader is calling me. How wierd is that?"
Anyway, we had a nice evening. We will invite them to our house sometime soon. Just strange - really, really strange.
