"Ladies Who Lunch"



The other day I was wanting the opinion and advise of a friend. I thought about who to ask. I realized all my friends are book club friends. That didn't alter who I could ask. Their opinion was just fine, I didn't have anything to hide from them. It made me grateful that I had made so many good friends from what started out with four women , one of them my daughter, forced to go out of my fear and shyness. Now, I won't kid anyone, I don't know everyone as well as I do some, but I feel like I could meet anyone of them on the street and have a conversation. That's not bad for someone who lived and worked here for six years and didn't feel like I had a friend I could ask to lunch. Pathetic isn't it? Well, no more! I got it goin' on! I'm one of those women sitting in a restaurant surrounded with others laughing and it's somebodys birthday. I got in on the fun! The Book Club is for more than just reading. It can be a birthday, a baby shower, help when you're moving, a party for Christmas or ... men and mostly Ladies who Lunch.
