New beginnings with old friend...

My apologies to those who actually ready my blog for my longer than usual absence. The routine of getting back into school mode and the starting of Flag football have had me rather occupied ( Among other things). I thought I would get back into my bloggy grove with a very unique story that happen this weekend.

On Friday, I met up with an old friend ( I don't mean old as in 10 years ) but it has been about 6 years I believe ( roughly ). Before I worked for Apple I was an Asst. mgr in retail. I worked retail thru my pregnancy, and with the horrid things the company did to me prior to leaving, and the train wreck of things that happen during my Maternity absence, it was easy for me to decide a career change was in order. One of the girls who was working in the store at the time this was all going on was Nicole. There were so many qualities about Nicole I absolutely loved, but was not sure she was in on all the craziness that was going on. We worked together quite a bit and soon realized that she too was effected by all the madness and was not in on the scheme of things.

I went on leave, Nicole worked at Papyrus and also became pregnant with her first child, Taya, or Tater Tot as her mom calls her, which Andrew thinks is the funniest thing right now. The last time I saw Nicole before Friday was right after Taya was born about 5 years ago. I don't know how, but in the midst of life and starting families we lost touch for a bit. I found her on FB/Myspace and well the rest is history how we are reunited. You would think this might just be a story of 2 friends finding each other on a social network but I am not so sure about that...

So, Friday...Andrew and I went to her house. Andrew played with Taya or Tater Tot, while Nicole did my hair and got caught up on 5 years worth of life. When I arrived ( after being 45 min late from being lost! Soooo my fault! ) Nicole begins asking me about where I lived exactly. I explained over the phone that I would be taking Grantline down to El Dorado Hills and then would hop on 50 the rest of the way to her house. knowing I lived in Rancho Cordova, she asked where exactly did I live. Now, being a fairly new community and being hidden at that, not too many people know exactly where Sunridge Park is, but know of the community over, which is Anatolia. I just said I live by Anatolia. She says well I just bought a house in Sunridge Park. At that point I would of LOVED to have seen the look on my face when she told me that! Of course I was like OMG I live in Sunridge park!!! Turns out, her and her fiance will be moving into a house down the street that is across from mine at the end of November! I tell you I still can't believe it. It's the strangest thing. And here when I saw her I was thinking it took 5 years for us to see each other again, when is the next time we are going to be able to get together!! Forget about that! We are going to be neighbors! Ironically we will be going to Tater tots B-day in a couple weeks, so we will see them again before they move here. And what is even more awesome, Taya and Andrew will be going to first grade together next year too! Seriously I need to be pinched! It's like our friendship was destined! * lol*
