Do you spend special times together with your girlfriends?

Aug 1st is "Girlfriend's Day....

Do you have special girlfriends that you love spending time with? What do you do together that makes the time so special?

Not so much these days. Mostly I spend time with work friends or family.

I have a couple of friends that I do things with, we go out to eat or just hang out. One of my friends and I went to see Mama Mia together, it's a great movie to watch with your friends. We don't get to do things together often but we do make it a point to do it every couple of months.

I meet with 4 other gals every two years who are from other areas. This year we met at WIs Dells. We see the area sites, go shopping, gab and have lots of laughs. We met over the internet 10 years ago and we stay in touch by emails. We will meet again in 2 years, God willing. We may all be using walkers by then but we will still meet.

I have one dear friend here about 10 mins away from my house we try to get together once a month and go to lunch and mess around. She is my oldest friend in VA oldest in time I mean.
My friend Susie and I try to get together at least once a month she lives about 45 mins from me now. We also go off each year in Oct as her b'day is 16th and mine 17th so we "vanish" from nite of 15th or early morn of 16th till late on 18th. We laugh a lot have a great time together tho' she is just a year older than my oldest child. But neither of us think about age. To me it is just a number and always has been

My friends and I usually go out for a meal and coffee between semesters. I don't have much time during school. We talked occasionally by phone.

My best thing to do with my close friends is to visit as we don't get to do that often because of college and/or work. For right now, phone calls , and emails are how we usually keep in touch.
I am completely content with going the house (mine or their's), and visiting when we can. Although if we get a chance to, I like to go out for brunch with coffee, lunch with Dr. Pepper, or dinner with tea.
Never went to a movie with one though, maybe when I get done with college and get my life back.l

My best friend still lives in my hometown in Maine. We get together as often as we can but it is never often enough. We do talk on the phone, especially when we need a friend to lean on. I miss her!!

I have a couple other close friends here in NH. We go to the movies together, talk on the phone often, go out to eat. I don't know what I would do without them. I love my family dearly and love spending time with them but it is also fun to go out with my girlfriends and just do girly things.
