Friends, Fun, Laughter - Good for Your Health

Yes, this pic looks pretty old. In fact, it is almost 35 years old!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you pick me out with my straightened hair? I am sure you can. This is myself & 3 other friends from high school.

This is also 35 years old & was our high school graduation trip to Yosemite. You can see that the gal on the end in the first picture is not here (not on this Yosemite trip either) & another gal is now in this pic. She is another friend from high school who now lives in Australia. Yes, there I am again with my straightened hair!

Here are 3 of the friends with Half Dome in the background. Those were the times when the park was not booked up for the season months & months in advance! Good ole 1975!
So, that lady there from Australia, she is already in the states right now. Come this weekend into the beginning of next week, there will be a high school reunion of the 5 of us! Those in the Yosemite pics & also the gal next to me in the first pic on the end.. the one as short as me!
This is the first time we will all be together at the same time in 35 years! Amazing!!!!
So, yes, there will be friends, fun & laughter - all good for the sole & for our health. Yes, I am going to find a way to work out! You know me!
I do want to let all my loyal readers know that although I am going to do my best to read your blogs, I may not have the time to comment for a few days. I WILL HAVE POSTS UP THOUGH & am crazily putting together some in advance & also will be tag teaming with a couple blogger friends so I will have plenty for you to read!
Of course I will take pics so you can see the "after pics"! :-O
Just so you know, although I did go camping those many 35 years ago, I am a baby now & like my hotel rooms!
Also, I LOVED my hair straight & in fact pulled it straight for years up until "the change" started happening on me & my hair wanted to come out more than grow - on my head that is. Hair grows everywhere but where you want it to as you get to my age! YIKES!
So, I will have some cool posts for you to read but I may not get to commenting on yours or even my own until mid next week. I will try my best though. I want to make the most of this friend fest!
I know - you will eagerly await the after pics!








LOVE the photos and yes.
indeed.
I am perched on the edge of my seat waiting.
have an amazing time.

One thing you and I disagree on (forgive me); this is one weekend when I truly believe working out should be a very low priority. Live, laugh, enjoy, have fun!!!
