Let the game begin

1. I miss being able to be carefree...Gone are the days of hanging out with firends until midnight, sleeping in until noon, Using the two week plan when it comes to the men (you know, go out with them for a couple of weeks then have a new love interest)

2. I miss having a group of friends that just sit around and talk about silly things and do girl things like hair and make-up. There were several groups that I did this with growing up and we all used to have a blast. Now that we are "adults" we barely have time to grab breakfast with a friend.

3. I miss being able to dance without someone saying "Mom, you are embarassing me!". Dancing is a passion of mine. I used to dance all over the house and sing along to whatever song was playing...I could act Paradise outwhile singing it and dancing to it at the same time. At school dances I'd dance the entire night (unless I was makin out in the corner with some guy) and I had some awesome moves.

4. I miss my trips away to stay with Cheri and her family. She was my very best friend the whole time growing up and we experienced a lot together. I would go stay with her (Kittery) for a couple of weeks every summer and we'd also have our weekends at camp. We did everything...shopped, checked out hot guys, talked for hours about all the growing up stuff. I miss her and wish she could be a more substantial part of my life again...but time changes everything. We are still good friends but we are lucky if we talk once a year now.

5. I miss "Birches" ice cream. That was a little ice cream stand between here and Skowhegan and they made the absolute BEST ice cream in the world. Every weekend my mom would take us for a treat and we would get our favorite flavor (mine was their Chocolate Fudge Ripple) and sit under the birch trees (hence the name) and eat to our hearts content and we never worried about what it would do to our waistline. I didn't have many good family memories but this was one place it always seemed just perfect!
