When life gets girls down, we recharge by socializing with our best friends. Guys –they go fishing or indulge in their hobby of choice that does not involve talking about “their feelings.” Women vent frustrations with one another, talk trash about men, admire clothing they can not afford, and spend money on crap they don’t need. I just returned from a two day get away to Madison, Indiana with a girlfriend. We stayed at the state park inn which was beautiful and relaxing. After 12 years of friendship, no matter where we go, we manage to laugh until we cry and shop until we drop. It is nice to know someone so well that just a look on their face explains what they think and you begin to laugh. Thanks to my friend I have a little less baggage and a little more sanity.
