Well, my superwoman shopping star is having a birthday today. Julie, or Jewlz as I call her is the sweetest, calmest and most patient person I know. We spend many a day in a trailer, dealing with questions, ignorance, rules, complainers, parents, kids and volunteers.
But not once have I seen her lose her cool . . . even when I am ready to tear someones head off, she will calmly step in and diffuse the situation.
We are the F.A.R.T. . . . . many people laugh when I say that, but it stands for the Freaking Awesome Registration Team. We have had many laughs, giggles and heart to hearts in that trailer. We have had conversations that we will only share with each other; shared secrets; vented in confidence; laughed at someones stupid behaviour; and worked our butts off.
In the almost three years that we have been confined to that trailer, sometimes for up to 10 hours, we have never shared a mad word, never lost it with each other, never got angry at each other, never had to walk away to calm down. She is a rock that holds it all together.
We have laughed so much we have almost peed; we have held each other when we needed that shoulder to cry on; we were a team. Unfortunately that team will no longer be, but our friendship will never change.
Julie is a friend that I know I can confide in. She is a friend who can tell when you are having a bad day, a friend who always has her door open for you. She is one genuine chicky, and I am very lucky to have her in my life.
So on your special Day miss Julie, I wish you all the love in the world, i wish you happiness and health, i wish you joy and laughter - and I cant wait for my Julie fix. Love you kiddo. Happy Birthday.
