[Bishop's Fantasy?]
This is MY story and I'm sticking to it!Also Annoyed

I am just plain irritated tonight. I had that stupid headache all day. My husband was supposed to get home in time to take my daughter to Vacation Bible School. Yeah, right. I passed him as I was on my way to church. Oh well, what did I really expect? It's been a whole string of bothersome events strung together.
Shake it off, suck it up, and rub some dirt on it. All is not lost. I spent some of the time my daughter was in VBS sitting outside talking to a friend from Sioux City. Right before we ended the conversation, I could her a catch in her voice as she told me she misses me. I just about lost it. I miss her, too! I've missed our phone conversations about books and life and things we've learned or observed. I've missed cooking with her. I've missed our long, leisurely lunch dates. I've especially missed her hugs. That lady can hug like nobody else I've ever met. When she wraps her arms around me, I feel like the whole world has been shut out for just a moment and I'm completely safe and warm. She's got eyes that pierce right through a person, but a smile that shows she loves you, no matter what she sees. Sometimes she's a complete contradiction, but always I love her.
Maybe that's the real bother. Worrying that those relationships will get lost in transition. The truly special ones that challenge me and comfort me and remind me that I'm loveable. Stupid sometimes, but loveable all the same.

is it worse to have no friends, or to not be allowed to see the ones you do have?

So nice that you were able to spend time with your friend. :)
Friends like that are priceless!

Sounds like you need to make sure you dont lose her in transition! *hugs*

What a great friendship you have in her. Sounds like she could melt the annoyance away.
