Soon i have to go again, say goodnight to the sleepers on the other side of the globe... but i wanted to post a little bit before going. I do miss family who are far away, and yes, some who have gone before us. When i fix things and even open albums, i miss children who have grown and are So different. I also miss an old friend, that is, a childhood playmate who still seems as happy to see me whenever we manage a few times by accident, as in the bank. However, i have an unpleasant feeling, pls tell me, is this jealousy, just insecurity?!
While she has to report for work, altho not regular hours, i did take the effort to ask her out for lunch some time and she was willing, set a date. Then that morning, i mentioned i was somewhere there, and she quickly responded she had a mtg and could not come. She's a single mom and her only child has been married, so i thot she'd have more free time, but i kept being the one wondering when a lunch would ever push thru. But i dont hear from her. I never want to nag, or appear doing so by reminding or asking again. You'd think we werent old friends, but ppl do change... so i am just missing and wishing she'd remember and ask or do something!
