I was part of generation X for awhile... I think. If generation X were those that graduated college in the early nineties. Then generation Y came along, not sure what age defined that group... and before I had a chance to figure that out, I turned forty. This blog is about me, and what I'm doing in my forties, working, parenting, embracing the moments of generationforty.

Friends, No Ice and Napa
I like ice in my water, but am fine without, a girlfriend that I've known since college, prefers no ice. It was my other girlfriend who mentioned that when we were together for a girls weekend earlier this month. The three of us vowed, in 1999, to get together for a girls weekend every three years. It's 2014, and it's happened twice; there were a couple of visits in between, but husbands, kids and an occurrence of cancer were involved, so those don't count. What does count is uninterrupted girlfriend time to take note of small things (no ice), and pick up where you left off; even if it takes a few moments, or glasses of wine, to remember where. What counts is casting aside all the multitasking involved in the daily life of being a mom and wife, so that you can just be a friend for a few days. What counts are friendships that are timeless, and friends who are priceless. Thanks ladies for your friendship, endless generosity, and therapeutic shoulders. Oh, and of course... Thanks for Napa!
