Friendships

I have 2 best friends and the 3 of us have been friends since we were 12 so 30 years now. I love these women! All of us only live a few miles apart and it is great! The thing I love about our friendship is we can be in a room of 100 people and one of them will look at me and we both know exactly what the other is thinking. 2 of us have gone thur divorces together which made it much easier knowing you had someone going thru the exact same thing. We did everything together. Her kids father lives in Texas so her kids when they were younger would go to Texas for 6 weeks in the summer. She would then come and live with me for those 6 weeks so she would not be alone. We had a blast! When my kids were at their dad's house we would go out and party! It was great! We often referr to that as the crazy summers! We had theme songs for each summer and it just cracks me up to think about it now. I am the only one who has lost a parent so far. My one friend has lost 2 brothers tho. It is just weird all the things we have gone thru. I am so thankful for their friendship. We fight like sisters but absolutely are always there for each other.

Ok so I am the most hormonal one out of the 3 of us and always have been. I am not ashamed of that in any way. It is what it is. When I get PMS I am a monster but the people that love me just know that it won't last long and just deal with it. My one friend admits to having it too but not to the degree that I do. She also admits to having symptoms of premenopause. I also admit to that as well. My other friend tho... she nevers gets PMS or has no signs of premenopause. I think that knowing you have it is being much more in tune with your body. So because of the weather lately we have been going to the show alot of the weekends which has been every weekend since Christmas. We have seen Marley and Me, Bride Wars, Mall Cop and Bedtime Stories. Well the friend that never gets PMS has always been the one who never crys out of the 3 of us. Every movie we have seen this month she has cried at. We were watching Mall Cop and I look over and she is sobbing. I was like WTF???? Her response "it is sad". I said "it is a comedy"???? This month she has also called me at work crying like 3 times over things that normally would never make her cry. So I said to her last weekend "you don't have any signs of premenopause?" she says "oh hell no I don't get that shit" so I said "let me see you cry more now than ever and you even cry at a comedy WTF I think that something is up with you" then I also said "you called me at work crying about having a tooth ache"? So we came to the conclusion that she does have these symptoms just never realized that is what it was! I was like "HELL YEAH WE ARE GETTING OLD LOL". Seriously tho, I love these women with all my being and I appreciate their friendships more than I can even explain.
