23 Years and Counting...(12.10.17)

It was my senior year of high school in 1994.  Jewell Drewry came up to me to tell me about a meeting regarding some college tours.  Since I wasn't exactly sure on where I wanted to attend, I felt I needed to be there.

So I begged my mama to head over to Rev. Anderson's church on "Fed" (Fayette) St.  Some people from Greensboro came to recruit kids for the tour.  After begging my mom again to pay the fee and let me attend, and convincing Mr. Talley to not count me & Jewell absent for attending, I packed my bags to meet up at St. James Presbyterian Church. 

It was there where I fully met the Sanders family and the start of my friendship with Phylishers!!!

She has been my friend, my babysitter, and my sister since then.  And now baby sis is about to turn 40.

Her mom orchestrated a surprise dinner cruise for Phee and her friends/family.  Somehow, her cousin convinced her she was going to some private event where Michelle Obama was speaking.  She was extremely surprised, and we had a great time.









We all picked cupcakes with a letter from Phee's name.  We had to pick a word that described her using that letter.  I ended up with "I".  My word was "ignant (slang for ignorant).  Of course, I mean it in a good way.  Phee is that one friend that I know I can just be completely ignant with, and we can be silly.  Loves me some ignant Phee!!!




And one of the best parts was that I didn't get extremely motion sick!!!  There's hope for me and boats after all.
