Crazy how we got here

  These girls...though I haven't gotten to know Miss Josie as well as I knew her momma, I do know her well enough to know that she is one of the sweetest girls around.  She has been Valories friend forever just about.  Which isn't really a surprise to me as her momma and I were friends back in the day.  You know..."back in the day" that seems like only yesterday but really is more than 20 (maybe 30) years ago.  I got the pleasure of hanging out with them this past Friday at the local High school football game (because that's what you do for fun in this sometimes too small town).  We probably did more chit chatting than we did watching the game. but it was fun.  Some how or another we got to talking about being in band (which my girls like to pick on me about being a band nerd) and I couldn't remember if Josie's mom finished school in band or if she quit after the first year.  For some reason I could not for the life of me remember that little tidbit
