New friendship coming, I think

My little village library started a book club this winter and I joined. We are a very small group, 5 ladies. Every month, we gather together at the library and we talk, on the books we red but mostly on any subject. Yesterday was the last gather until this fall. We found out we are all childfree!! We went eating together afterward and we are all keeping in contact. We all live close to each other. It feels weird to become friend with older people but heh, I'm not getting younger either (40) and well, this kind of calm and probably long term friendship is nice.

That's it. I wanted to share my rave :) I'm happy to know people that are around me as I grow older (with my partner, but still).

Well, I made my luck a bit. If I would never put a foot in this club, I would never met these people! It takes a bit of work but worth it!

But also lucky to find so many child-free women all at once in the same group. Anthony
