Creative Friday

Hooray for Creative Friday! Jill got here earlier than usual today, and stayed later than usual as well, so it was a nice long day of that good old Creative Friday refueling. I love that even though we spent several hours together on Wednesday and had several phone conversations this week, we still have plenty to talk about. Dare I say the well never runs dry?

Today I worked on birthday tags -- man, I love it when Jill has a great idea for me. Jill brought a bunch of frames from her photo wall and swapped out the photos (she calls it demoting them, which just has too sad a connotation, let's think of something better, shall we?), she cut several sets of good mail labels, and she readied 10 pieces of good mail! Wow.

Jill, always keeping up with her correspondence. If she ever stopped sending good mail, the U.S. postal service would take a huge hit!

Side note: Jill said she wouldn't leave until I made a doctor's appointment. I need to make a doctor's appointment. I've been needing to make one for some time now, and it's been on my to-do list for weeks. I need a new prescription for my anti-depressants. I need to go. So why have I been avoiding it? I can't say exactly, but it's times like these when I need a friend like Jill to give me the push I need. Check.

Seriously the cutest reusable shopping bag ever, anywhere (I defy you to show me a cuter one!) -- she bought it at the PTA Conference. I'm trying to convince her to put together an order because I want some!

Creative Friday: free therapy, good music (ooh! she brought me another new cd today!), laughter, productivity, good food, support, a tangible energy boost -- could there be anything better? (Incidentally, we tried to figure out just how long we've been having Creative Friday, and we couldn't pinpoint it exactly, but we do know that we've been doing it at least semi-regularly since Landon was a baby, and he's almost 10!)
