It Was Time
It was time to get re-acquainted with Lorraine. Lorraine worked for me in the mid 1980s as an assessment clerk in the Watonwan County Assessor’s office. She left employment to be a stay-at-home mom in 1990. We totally lost touch.
We both are now grandmothers and Lorraine is a widow. I had picked up on a random Facebook post of a friend of a friend that it was her birthday last week and decided to pick up the phone and bring the west side of town occupant to our home on the east side of town. Plans to have coffee on the patio went by the way side when the winds picked up and the mid 50 degree temps felt cool.
Lots of chit chat and a pot of coffee brought us up to date with each other. It came about from acting on a thought. Priceless.
