TOGETHER – another fun day at FMF!
I’m an introvert. Extreme introvert.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t like being with people,
especially my family.
It’s just better together.
And after the togetherness, and I have to take a break from
the noise, I think back and feel wonderful
Because we were together.
Together with my Turany family at the cabin by the lake,
fishing, watching my dad smoke bass, eating lots of good food, taking naps when
I wanted.
Together with my immediate family, camping, going on lots of
trips to the ocean, Yellowstone, Canada, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, Prescott,
Mexico, Wisconsin Paulsen Country, swimming, eating lots of good food, trying
out the new restaurants in Phoenix, shopping, reading, cooking.
Together with my brother going on adventures in the
neighborhood, catching lizards, building Indian ruins in the back yard, playing
in the water on irrigation day.
Together with my best friend, Connie, talking at her house
for hours until her brother told us to shut up, learning crocheting and
macrame, swapping hamsters, surviving grade school.
Together with my best friend, Cathy, in high school,
marching and concert band, fending off the evil note writers, walking around
campus, NOT talking about classes, going to swimming parties and Farrol’s Ice
Cream Parlor.
Together with my small support crew in college, Cindy,
Edith, Steve, Bill, Mark, Vicky, Kim, … commiserating about the tough classes,
joking about the professor who thought he was god, visiting each other’s
houses, eating meals together, watching everyone else get engaged.
Together with my best friend and husband, planning life,
doing fun things, raising kids, taking trips, struggling with bills, rent,
mortgage, job loss, sickness, troubles, fears … life.
Together is what I look forward to – all my best friends
together again – in the final happy home.
