It stormed and rained and the wind blew in Phoenix on Thursday evening, but Esther, Elaine and I still managed to go to Chandler to Eve's home for hours and hours of conversation, laughs, sharing, excellent food and snacks, and to meet Eve's friend, Mary who lives in Sun City. What an evening! We were two hours late getting there because of the weather, but did get there by 7:00 pm and stayed until 10:30 or later. I am not sure what time we did get back to my home, but Elaine drank her first glass of clay and took samples home, and Esther and I stayed up talking and putting the pictures we took on the computer, plus Esther had lots of laundry to do-so we did not go to bed until 2:00 am! We all agreed you could not have more fun with five women together than we had last night-it was a fantastic and fun evening.
We all loved Mary and are thrilled to add her to our circle of friends- she enchanted us with her stories and her life, as we all shared our lives with each other. Eve's home is beyond words to describe, and very elegantly decorated- her unique personality shows all through her home and gorgeous back yard. It was an evening to remember and cherish. Thank God for friends! And GOOD friends!
Esther and her daughters are taking a short trip today and tomorrow and she goes back to Washington DC on Sunday. So this fun, busy, and great ten days of her being in Phoenix is about over, but we had a wonderful time! We shared four fantastic evenings and dinners with friends, plus hours of talking and laughing.
