Laughter is Very Good Medicine

Even if it hurts to laugh! Hard to injure the jaw and still try to giggle. :) Worth it though! My family keeps me in stitches (no pun intended) most of the time, but I've also been visited by a very good friend the last two weeks. He's on tour with How to Train Your Dragon's arena show and only can come home and visit every few months. I have known this man for 21 years! We've gone to all the same schools and shared a lot of the same friends through all those years. We made the most of his two weeks here, even though I was a bit limited from surgery. We had campfires and lots of wine, visited our favorite haunts in town, delighted in fancy dinners and dancing. We talked all hours of the night, until my jaw was too sore to go on. :) He is a truly wonderful friend who has taken very good care of me through my surgery both being near and far. As the years go on, and my good friends get less in number, I'm left with a few golden, kindred spirits and he is one of them. I'm a very lucky girl!
