On my mind This week has been an unusual one, because my usually quiet apartment has been blessed with the energy and laughter of my best friend, Hieyam. She’s staying with me for a few weeks and this is the first time in years that we’ve spent this much time together. Hieyam and I have known each other since we were babies and no matter where we have lived, our communication has never stopped. When she and her family moved to Oregon, we became pen pals. I literally sent her letters with handmade puzzles and drawings in them. I would like to think she kept them all and definitely did not throw my precious art away. That distance was draining for our impatient pre-teen selves and luckily she ended up moving back to Arizona years later. We still never lived together though, even in college but we got to spend time together on campus and at my apartment.
