I'm home for the first time in probably more than 15 years. My sister is here as well. My mother has gone crazy this last week preparing more food than the four of us will ever eat. This year has been big. Off work for the first time in years, my poor cat Henry passed away from a sudden illness, which I couldn't bring to write about here at the time. This time has been about healing for me. This time tomorrow I will wrap up the year by baking a turkey, and I haven't cooked anything serious in months.
I have long thought about friendship and discussed it with Melody quite a bit. Maintaining and keeping good friends is so difficult. This year I have been concentrating on trying to be a good of a friend to those who are my friends (or wish to be) as possible. Sometimes it's hard to tell if you are the one forcing it though or is the other person just going through so much that it seems they are pulling away?
