BECKY


(sigh)

Becky's another 1/4 of my "select sisterhood" and one straight arrow, this woman. I've been trying to remember if I've ever seen a drop of alcohol in any form pass her lips and I don't believe I have. This I don't understand. I respect it, but I don't understand it. LOL
I HAVE, however, witnessed her puffing on a cigarillo! LOL again!

Beks is into homeopathy, has a vast knowledge of this, believes in it. She researches alternative palliatives but realizes there are times medical science has to take over. She's down-to-earth, funny, sensitive, caring. There were many times the past couple of years when Beks' ears had to be screaming for a rest from my divorce woes, but she never complained......not once. I knew I could call on her (or any of the sisterhood) and they'd listen and listen and listen. I needed that outlet to vent, and they were always there. Becky told me recently that I was "crazy" during that time, and I probably was. The fact that they're all still my friends speaks volumes of their endurance and commitment. I'm very fortunate.

If I were to articulate one aspect of Becky's personality it would be "dichotomy." She's such a practical, by-the-book individual that it astounds me when she lets loose and does something outrageous or says something risque. But that's what makes her so much fun........you THINK you know what you're getting, and then she throws you a curve -- and it's hilarious. I'm thinking OVERHEATED MONKEYS, Sister! LOL

To you, Beks.
