February Prompt #7
7. Tell us about your very first friend.

Ahhh....This question kind of sucks for me...I do not remember the first 8 years of my life other then flashbacks and stories I have been told over the years. I blocked it all out, actually in therapy to try to find out why....There are bits and pieces that I can recall...it truly sucks, especially now that Dad has passed, my mom and I do not get along, so I guess I will never learn more about my childhood then I know now. That is sad.

I had friends I am sure, I vaguely remember playing outside with the neighborhood kids but honestly, I was a latch key kid at age 10. I came home everyday and locked myself in our apartment per my moms rules..I had to do my homework and chores before my mom got home. I spent A LOT of time alone...to myself. I used to read a book at all times. I remember reading the Babysitter's Club series. I was kind of a loner. When I got to high school I had a couple close friends, I was on the dance team for a year and then I joined the work program at school and from 10-12 grades I went to school only for 2 hours in the morning and then I worked a full time job at a jewelry store in the mall, making more money then any student in my entire school.

So as you can see, I lived a VERY sheltered life, my mom (aka:Satan) truly raised me in a bubble, I have just in the past 8 years experienced things in life that I should have years and years ago...horse back riding, fishing, camping, and all sorts of things...just now experiencing them because of how sheltered I was raised.

Now that I am a lot older, I do wish I could remember my childhood, figure out WHY I DON'T remember...but I have made friendships as I have become older that make up for any that I did not have as a child! gardengirl and Patrece ~ Author Icon are 2 of my 4 only friends. And that is just perfect for me! It is not the quantity but the QUALITY!! And let me tell you...these are friendships that are the ones you value and treasure for life!


Loving my new fairies!!
