My BFF



On the Beach at the Jersey Shore

Meet my BFF.  We have been friends for about eight years.  I hired her to assist part time with some office work at my current employer's place of business.  Little did we know we would become fast friends.  We are very much opposites in many things.  I love bright colors, while she is a true black, white & brown type of girl.  She has her own Harley (I affectionately call her Scoot - short for Scooter trash), I would never ride on anything with less than four wheels.  She is athletic and played on a Men's softball team.  I do not have one ounce of coordination in my whole body and really don't like sports of any kind. She is very outgoing and makes friends very quickly. I am rather quiet and reserved.  It takes me a LONG time to warm up to people.  She is divorced and does not have kids.  I have been married for over half my life to the same man and am a Mom to two lovely girls.  She has tattoos, I do not.  Despite all the differences we are BFF's.  We have the same silly sense of humor & "get" each others stupid jokes & antics.  We both have weight issues, although Scoot can diet & exercise to get into shape - me- not so much.  We both love to shop together even though our tastes in clothing are not quite the same.  We take an annual trip for "girl's weekend" to the beach.  Last year we went to Vegas for 4 days instead of the beach - We had a blast!  She is my "person".  She does not judge, she just listens.  We are different, but we are the same.  She is the sister I never had.
