Ladies who Lunch - The Healing Effects of Girl time

On Friday, I was lucky to see two of my most cherished girlfriends for coffee/tea...which turned into lunch...which turned into shopping....and included a 6hr girl talk pow wow.

It's horrible how life takes over and it takes a 10+ email thread to set up lunch for 3 little ladies.  During our girls gone-not-so-wild day together, we covered everything from bra clips to kids (too early/too late?  We decided there is never a perfect time.)

No matter how much I love spending time with Makoto (I've even introduced him to the world of spas), there are some things that only my girlfriends will understand (like how devastating Sex and the City II was....why...WHY did they have to do another sequel?!?!?  It almost ruined the entire series for me!). 

It's easy to take friendships for granted, especially when your girlfriends are so unconditionally loving and supportive.  But there is no replacement for spending time together.  There's something about sharing both laughs and intimate details of tough times with female energy that is so healing and supportive to the soul and completely irreplaceable by any other therapy.

Call your girlfriends today and tell them you love and appreciate them!
