"Did you hear Ellen is retiring?" I asked Mimi about our dear mutual friend at bowling this morning.
Mimi was the assistant principal at our school when Ellen started there back in 1992. She was also a mentor when Ellen moved from the classroom to admin, and a colleague when Ellen was hired as the other assistant principal at our school. As it happens, Sharon, our principal from that time, and Susan, our Director of Counseling, are also in the bowling league; reconnecting with them has been one of the top reasons I've enjoyed bowling so much.
Mimi's face lit up at the news. "No!" she answered. "I'm going to have to give her a call and congratulate her!"
A little while later, I heard her talking to Sharon and Susan. "We could have our whole admin team here!" she beamed. "Wouldn't that be something?"
Their smiles were as wide as hers.
