The Wild Thing: When a friend just knows...

When a friend just knows...

I have a little friend that knows me heart and soul...

...let me set the stage...
You walk into an antique shop(The Junk Asylum)and are totally struck by something so decadent that you must have...
but then you weigh the reality...
electric bill
cool stuff
truck payment
cool stuff...
you get the picture, right...

...sooo, I walk into Sister's Garden the next day and right in the doorway is this fabulous Victorian door embellishment that I drooled over at The Asylum...I knew it!!!
However...
there was a tag with my name on it...Barb had purchased it,
but had purchased it for me...OMG!
Barb and I have been buds for nearly 15 years at Sisters'
helping each other in the various ventures that it requires to keep a biz afloat.
She was there when I turned 50
and 60...
there when I divorced
and for the death of my 'X'
she was there when I moved to Florida(tears)
and when I moved back(more tears)
my Grandson
and her Grandson
we have history
lots of history...but...
what we really have is true soul history and
that will be with us today in this life
and beyond...

Thanks Barb...
I love you Sister!
