Project 52: THREE

Every week, a group of friends and we have gotten together on Tuesdays to share a meal. I've been participating for seven years now (!!!), and our group has changed so much. TND, as we affectionally call it, has had some rocky times the past several months because of new jobs and aspirations, new families (ahem, Garrett's arrival), and sicknesses. But we're determined to keep it going.

There's just something special about having people into your home. In college, the house I lived in had pretty much an open door policy. My parent's home is the same way. I want that for my family. I want us to be a safe place for friends and acquaintances and neighbors to drop by. I want to not have to worry about whether the house is clean or not (within reason) to be a green light for people to come over. I want people in my life to see the messy, cluttered, imperfect life that I live, not the clean, straightened, perfect life that I selfishly wish to portray sometimes.
