Girl's Night Out

Over a year ago, I organized a 'club' if you will for the women in my neighborhood.  It was just a chance for us women to get together without our kids and without our men.  We were always hanging out together, but still needing to keep an eye on our kiddos while they played...or having to go inside to make dinner and do the bedtime routine.  So this 'club' was our chance to hang out once every 2 months with just us ladies.  

I started the group after learning about a woman who died in our neighborhood from cancer.  I never even met her.  The fact that she lived so close to me, and I didn't even know her...didn't know she was suffering from cancer...broke my heart.  Maybe I could have provided some support in some way to her?  Maybe she could have passed on some life lesson to me?  Maybe I could have provided some help to her husband after she passed away.  

So before I left, some ladies from this group went out to dinner to a really good restaurant called Cap City Diner.  Not many of us could make it out that night, but so glad that the ones who were able to make it showed up.  I'm gonna miss ALL the ladies of our 'hood.
