I found an old Friend this week!

I still have one missing but, this was so exciting to just be fooling around on my "linkedin.com" searches and run across an old buddy from the "cellular days"_those were the 1980's for me. She is still out there doing it and here I am settled into a new, after 18 years, not so new business! It is fun though to re-find people that were once so important to my life. We had dealt almost daily on the phone together for awhile while I was still in Chicago and it was a nice surprise to find her name and contact information in the linked in website. By the way for those of you who are looking for a way to find old contacts that is a good place to start. Go to www.linkedin.com and join for free, then search for old business connections and even old friends. Perhaps they would be willing to send you business even today. Sometimes I think the best friends we have ever made are those we made in our early years. So if you like the idea, try that site and then try one called www.fastpitch.com both work the same. I have done more with linked in but like the structure of fastpitch!  If you have others I'd love it if you would share them! 

There is still one friend her name was Luanne India, from Medinah, IL in the early 70's. She will remember Doris if she ever hear's that I am still thinking about her silliness after all of these years. Some people bring rain to your life some bring the sun. The sunny ones stay in your heart! Enjoy!

Doris, that's wonderful! I've thought of searching for some high school friends. The internet is an incredible tool, thanks for the links .

Oddly enough I just stumbled upon my college roommate from 1976 this week on Linkedin. Over the last 32 (GOD, it's that long...) I often talked about his involvement in my hijinxe's back then and always wondered how he was doing. Low and behold he works 5 minuets from my house. Small world. We're playing golf in April. Ought to be a blast! Linkedin is definitely worth the visit. Thanks for the other site. I'll try that too!
