SISTERS DATE
Making Time for the Important Things

It’s almost the end of May and sadly, I haven’t done the best job of sticking to my new year resolutions. But there’s one resolution I’m proud to still be mainting: our monthly “Sisters Date”.  Since our work and personal schedules are so chaotic, my sisters and I agreed in January to set aside a day once a month to spend time together.  Sometimes it takes 100 text messages back and forth to find a mutually convenient time for everyone and then another 100 texts to finalize the plans, but when it finally happens, it’s worth every second. We have yet to skip a month, which is pretty miracilous since we’re notoriously “flakey”. I’ve never had a large group of girlfriends and I think that’s because I’ve been spoiled with two wonderful sisters, whom are the best friends any girl could ever hope for! No one gets me quite like they do.

Charisma - Such a great idea!

I have a weekly Skype date with my best friend who lives in Cali and a weekly walking and talking date with my best local friend. It really helps to know that I will have an hour with each of them every week, even when things get busy!

Elly - Love this – I find that time with my ladies (sisters or friends) is always welcome, and always ridiculously fun. Also, nom! Olives! :)
