Good morning y’all..

That up there is my sister Bees. She has been my bestie since college, 25 years ago. I remember how we met very clearly. I was about 23 years old and she was about 19, and I was with my foster sister Lorie who enrolled also, in the CVP program which was a program for young adults with learning disorders, find a job or whatever… so, I was looking for friends, and behind me these three girls were chatting about music, in particular BSB. I had an interest in BSB and Nick Carter since the mid 90’s… so I turned around in my chair and introduced myself to Bees, and the two Lee-Anne’s. (Lee-Anne Wachtel now Alter + Lee-Anne Arrobas)

Bees who’s real name is Colleen Feeney became my bestie within weeks. I flunked out of college, due to the fact, I had to take care of my nephew (Lorie’s kid) Mathew, and I had health issues as well, so, we kept in touch by e-mail, until my evil foster mother had a stroke, and my foster brother Doug took me in until I found shelter at the group home I’m in now. I phoned up my ex and asked him if I could have her number and then I left a message for her, and we re-united over the phone and later in person. Bees is the one that got me into B’s. So I am pretty lucky.

Today she is the closest thing I have to a sister.

We celebrated 25 yrs of knowing each other on the 26th of August. Everyone is amazed that we’ve been friends for so long. 🙂

Today I get my first $50. I need to budget this. I can do it. I know I can. My mom is doling it out to me each week. That was Dave and Heather’s idea.

I really need to see a dentist. 🙁
