Foursquare Lady?


Okay, where did my chin go in these pictures? At least you can't see the wrinkles.

I took this last night on my way to book club where I spent a delightful evening with the Chicklits. Every time we meet we say that we DEFINITELY need to publish a cook book. We certainly know how to feast sumptuously. It has become not only a book club but a real dinner club too. It's awesome how women can encourage and inspire each other on so many levels.

This morning Candace came over and we took a spin class on bikes at the Leisure Center and after lunch I set Candy Apples up to be a blogger. Can't wait to see what my funny, witty friend will do with this new avenue of expression. I love following my friend's blogs. Have YOU ever  thought of blogging for yourself? It's really fun. It's a good way to find expression. Bloggers generally blog because it makes them feel good. Don't do it if you are looking for feedback because generally people who read your blog do not leave a comment. The ones who leave comments are bloggers who know how nice it is to receive a comment so they "do unto others."

Tomorrow I meet with the Joy Club who all attend the Foursquare Church. The pictures must be a subconscious attempt to fit in. ha ha What would I do without my women friends? I'm such a clubby kind of girl these days. Just when I think I'll back off  and isolate myself I end up with another gathering and because everyone enjoys it so much we end up putting a little fence around the group and decide to continue to meet.

Here's the latest example! The Sweeter Than Chocolate group formed for a six week Bible study and just as we were getting to know each other it ended. So we've decided to meet once a month to keep up the friendship. There are two other members who are not shown here. We meet in the guest suite at my house and have a wonderful time in the Lord. It's warm, cozy and a place to express creativity. I didn't even know two of the gals when we started and now I love them to pieces. Do YOU have a group of gals to meet with? It's quite simple. Just get started.
                                                                                                                                                      

Here's a book I just bought that is supposed to be quite delightful. They say when you are finished reading it you will want to start a club, so maybe you would find some inspiration there! Maybe I shouldn't even read it, because knowing me I'd start another group. Oh well, you can't have enough friends in this world. That's my motto!
Enjoy your week!!!!

  3. I think Canadians (and landed-immigrants-in-Canada) must be much more sociable or available or something than Americans. But I'm going to see what I can do to get some gals together regularly down here in the States. You inspire me.
