Friendship...Makin' Halloween Great?

Today I had a chance to go to lunch with Tara Barber at Pizza Hut in Afton. She's been a very good friend to me & always takes an active interest in whatever is going on in my life. I enjoyed being able to be around her bubbly personality once again.
She's had a busy day & I appreciate her taking some time out of it to have lunch with me.


I've learned a lot about resiliency from watching Tara. She's a wonderful person & uplifts others despite whatever she's personally going through. It bothers me to see her struggle, but she always seems to find a way to bounce back from adversity which I have a great deal of respect for. I'm grateful to her for all the times that she's helped me & that she continues to look for ways to include me in her life.

Jamie & Tara really have made the last two weeks enjoyable for me. They've certainly provided me with a lot of hope & joy that I wouldn't have had otherwise when I've needed it. Both of them may have "tricked" me into being their friend, through their kindness to me, but it really has been a treat for me that they'd consider me as their friend.

Looked like her "old friend" had a fun time. I did as well. ;)

You're too sweet Shan... don't worry about me and all my drama... it's just part of life... albeit it's a lot stranger than everyone's life generally is... but it's nothing compared to what you and others have gone through!
