The Cat's Meow

Hello, reader!  And Hello Kitty!  I only worked half a day at clinic today, and luckily so because I was able to be home for a special delivery.  I have never received or even been in the same room as an Edible Arrangements fresh fruit bouquet, and today that changed. :-)  I have a big audiology-related event coming up (no, not graduation...one more year to go!), and this was to wish me good luck.  How sweet, huh?!  Literally- and figuratively-speaking...

Pictured is my very thoughtful friend and me when our deployments to Iraq overlapped and we saw each other in the sandbox.  A time when my friend & I were "Hear 4 U Always" in a different sense...

Friends for seven years and counting...he was nice enough to make it out to my White Coat Ceremony.

I'm "Hear 4 U Always"...and apparently I have a friend who is here for me always. :-)  I hope you are blessed with such great people in your life.  Now that I've noshed on fruit for nourishment, time to hit the books and study, study, study.  But as my wise friend wrote in the card, "remember to take time to smell the roses". That thoughtful suggestion should be adhered to by all of us all the time. :-)
