My amazing friends, this is for you

It's hard to be my friend and I'm aware of that.  I don't live right down the road and I never have.  Anytime my friends want to hang out we have to plan things out in advance so we can all be there and I can make sure I'm not going to be at the farm.

Some of my friends I have known for many years and others I have known since college.  Either way you all put up with me and that is always challenging.  I work weird hours and I'm always the one to leave the party early because 4am comes way too soon.  You all understand how I feel about the farm and you understand that I work a lot.  I just want you to know how much I appreciate all of you and the things that you do for me.  You always consider my schedule when we make plans and you also consider my drive out to see you.  All of my friends are at least an hour away from where I live.  I know it's not easy and I don't get to see you as much as I would like.  I'm thankful that you have stuck with me through all of the years and all of the stupid things we've done as well as all the things we've accomplished.  We've gone through graduations, weddings, countless jobs and boyfriends.  I love you all and can't wait to see where the future takes us!
