I like this! And it feels so "me" - I have only 2 "REAL" women friends that I would talk to regularly - TJ and Steph. However, with it being summertime, we don't talk as much as during the school year. With this group, I have received quilting advice, family advice, love and support through tough times, and I know that, een if we aren't talking in "real time", somebody will respond when I post a message. You guys are as much my friends as people that I have actually met in the flesh and blood.

Larisa, you made me jump when I read this. My sister's name is Steph and her son is called TJ. Seeing the names together I was sure you must be referring to my family, and I had to read your message a few times until I was sure it was just a coincidence!

talk about coincidences!!!! Nope, not your family. TJ is a 38 +/- yo woman who I admire very much (she is a stay at home mom to 6, with a deep foundation in her faith, and always seems to be able to help me get my head in the right frame of mind), and Steph is my "strange friend". She is 45, I think, and just as wild and crazy I when she was a teenager...what a hoot...she is the one that cheers me up and makes me laugh. She's also the one that can help me see the funny side of my complusive need to separate candies into color piles (finally figured out this started when parents were going through their divorce).
