Best Fran

I’ve known for a couple of months that my best friend was moving out of state, I’ve mentally prepped. I have encouraged, supported, gotten excited for her new journey. Then last night she confirmed the date.

In 7 days my very best friend, my sister, my family, my support system is leaving the state.

I was okay… a bit in shocked but over all okay. Until this morning when I realized it will be my first holidays without her in many years and went into a spiral. Luckily the spiral included moving furniture around at 8am and vacuuming a lot lol.

My best fran Saturdays will be done this Saturday, for a long while.

It still hasn’t fully hit me yet, can’t lie, very worried about when it does finally hit.

I am so beyond excited for her and this new journey. I really truly am. She is so deserving of all the greatness and this new chapter has been long time coming. I am so excited for her new start, her fresh start and her brand new, divinely guided, journey. ❤

I will however miss the crap out of her.

This individual has given me something I never thought I’d have and something I prayed for a long long time. Unconditional love and friendship. The kind of friendship that has weekly meet-ups, pour it out over cards and wine, conversations about anything/everything, trust and loyalty to the grave, Thanksgivings together, and even a relationship with each other’s kids. We separated for a chunk of time due to a relationship I was in but we reconnected 4 years ago and picked up right where we left off.

I literally prayed for a friend like her and have been so blessed to have her in my life, I feel so honored to have this kind of friendship. I know distance will only be a pebble in our road but damn, I’m going to miss her.

She is my only support and family, she is my emergency contact, my go-to, the person I celebrate the highs and lows. Obviously, this is all aside from my son. It will be difficult to be so far from her and Saturday nights will never be the same.

I look forward to our FaceTime pour outs over cards and wine, FaceTime celebrations over the highs and lows, and excitement over her new journey, but it won’t be the same.

Damn, I’m going to miss her.
