Day 18: Joy in a friends phone call

Mid-afternoon, after my kids were home from most of their daily activities and finding self-entertainment of their own, I picked up my book, not realizing how tired I was and tried to start reading.  The next thing I know, I am nodding off and hear my cell phone ringing in the distance.  After digging it out of my over-full mom purse, I see that my friend had just called and was able to catch her as I quickly called back.  She just called to get an address quick, but before I knew it almost an hour had passed by.  I love it how minutes fly by when you are catching up with a great friend, one who knows about your present, past, can relate and celebrate your day to day life with you.  Today, my post of joy is that surprise call from a friend that brightened up my afternoon.
