All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down

By Constance Rigney, February 26, 2021

Stephanie and I have some stories….In days gone by, we’ve been road dogs, travel buddies, wingmen, and accomplices.  Sometimes making fast friends, and sometimes quick getaways.  Often causing a joyous ruckus.

We have spent the better part of thirty years as best friends.

I hung up my dancing shoes a little earlier than Steph, settling into married mama life.  She continued to travel the world, be the life of the party, and evolve into one very badass criminal defense attorney.  

Wildly successful and unencumbered.  She would always tell me that home ownership was not for her; she didn’t need to be tied down to anything.  She was still footloose and fancy free.

Then, one day, I got the call…..

“I’m ready to buy a house,” she said. And, she was!

We looked at only a handful of houses before a sweet atomic ranch caught her eye.  Low maintenance, one level, no nonsense.  It was perfect.

Boom!  In a matter of days she beat out the competition, and sealed the deal.  We moved swiftly to closing, and with a great agent on the other side, the transaction was smooth as butter.

Now Stephanie not only has a house, but a big ‘ol pitbull named Gordy. Formerly abused and abandoned, Steph has brought him into her home and her heart.  It has been such a wonderful match!

These days you’ll find Stephanie in her beautiful home, with her lucky dog, living a much more domestic existence. My rowdy friend seems to have truly settled down.

But, there is still that twinkle in her eye……

Congratulations on your home, my dear friend!  I am truly so happy you have crossed over to the boring side 😉
