Over the Thanksgiving holiday I sent off an email to my oldest first best friend, Barbara. We go back to kindergarden days...
Like cats, we were often bosom buddies...
And like cats, sometimes we did not to speak to each other, though our school lockers were side by side...
Barbara lived in an apartment building, which I thought could not be more glamourous...
The apartment was furnished rather grandly in my eyes - like a palace...
Meanwhile Barbara thought my house was wonderfully homie and that we were the classic American family...what?
Barbara is an only child and her clothes closet put me in a state of awe...
No hand-me-downs and all those ballerinas! Oh
Sometimes I had dinner at Barbara's...
And it seemed as if the cook made lamb chops (my favorite) daily...
Barbara and I were both artistic so we had lots in common.
There was a third arty musketeer in our class, Mary Ellen. Together we landed all the top assignments you can land in the 4th grade like painting the Halloween windows etc.
We've all become artists in various fields.
From the earliest days I use to walk Barbara home, and then she would walk me home, and then I would walk her home again.

Are you in contact with your first best friend?
