High school BFF from Steinert High School in Hamilton NJ found each other on Facebook.
Joanne and Nellie (that's me) grew up within a block of each other. The elementary school was closer to Joanne's than Nellie's.
Middle school is a blur at this time. And then High School....
Steinert High School in Hamilton NJ - GREAT friends for the 4 years.... Joanne was a bridesmaid in my wedding - just 2 weeks after I turned 20 years old (WHAT was I thinking???)
Joanne and I lost touch. 10, 15, 20 and more years went by.....and then one day I received something on Facebook from her!
So many lifetimes have happened in between but...
when Joanne & Sean came to the Raleigh NC area to look around at housing, I was the Realtor they chose to work with. Old BFF's stand strong! Even though we'd not talked in years, she still trusted me! She knew that I would share all of my knowledge of the area. She knew that I would tell the truth & not just "sell" her something.
You should have heard us - it only took 30 minutes before we were back to "normal" - kidding around, giving each other a hard time, laughing & sharing our lives.
And thank goodness it was them that I was with when the car ran out of gas on I-40 !!! Unreal! I'm moving along at 70 mph and the car starts puttering.....I get into the way right lane.....I'm stepping on the gas and the car's slowing down! WHAT is going on???
The fuel tank says 1/2 full. The lights are still on. The radio is singing......
Thankfully I was able to pull over to the shoulder. Tried starting the car up. NOTHING! Sean chimes in "maybe you're out of gas".
DUH!
SURE AM GLAD THAT IT HAPPENED WITH JOANNE & SEAN IN THE CAR, AND NOT SOMEONE I HAD TO 'IMPRESS' FIRST TIME OUT LOOKING AT HOMES!!!!
