It wasn't bad at all, Mish! She gave her kids $20 each, they wandered around the mall, came back and checked in every hour while we sat and had a wonderful time catching up for three hours over coffee. She's been separated for over nine years. Hubby left her for his "soul mate" (he's on his third one since then) with two young kids. Her and I worked together for about ten years and have kept in touch for ages since then. When I separated she was a major support, we'd get together every two weeks or so. She's been dealing with depression for a while and has a very stressful job. Anyway, enough of that. We had a great visit and she has two incredible daughters, just like mine!
