Skool Lunch Closed Down

The Skool Lunch just down the street from my office closed down a few weeks ago.  But this wasn't just another Skool Lunch.  This was the Skool Lunch that Ashley and I would eat at at least once a week when she lived in Salt Lake.  The Skool Lunch where I still felt like I was hanging on to the last threads of what my life used to be.  The Skool Lunch where we were still best friends.

I don't know why this is bothering me so much.  I really can probably count on one hand the number of times I have eaten there in the past year.  I guess its more of a final door closing thing for me.  I miss my friends from Logan so much, especially Ashley, Lindsey and Clancy.  We are all doing such different things now, all in such different places. 

Sometimes it throws me for a loop when I think about how much has changed in just the two years since I graduated college.  Most of the changes are so great, and definitely becoming a mom has been the best change.  But some of the changes are sad and for me the saddest is not all being my best friends anymore.   

I have made new friends since moving back to Salt Lake  and am so lucky to be close to Bree and see her as often as I do.  I know that as time goes on and situations change I will make new friends and lose other friends and that is okay.  I am grateful for all of the people I do have in my life but I think a part of me will always ache for the best friends I used to have.
