This past week I was fortunate to visit with several friends that I don’t get to see very often. On Tuesday, I got lunch with my cousin who lives in Michigan. Thursday night we had family supper with all of my aunts and uncles on my dad’s side and most of my cousins. Yesterday morning I sat in a coffee shop in Hastings, NE with a teacher friend while I waited for my car to get new tires. And this morning a friend from college was in town for a family wedding and I got to have coffee with her for a couple hours.
