I know I have not been keeping up with the A/Z thing, but better late than never. Today is the letter “P” which I thought would be good place to start back in b/c “P” is the letter that my name starts with, Patricia. Sorry I messed up, it’s the letter “N” today…
Maybe a little music would be nice. Whenever I hear this song, I think of my sister’s.

My life has been a very interesting journey. One that I would classify as not your run of the mill life. Nothing boring about or dull about it. When I was raising my kids, I had 5, and they would complain “I’m bored” I replied it’s a good thing to be bored. I would’ve loved to be bored.
It was a pretty normal start, I was #4 out of 4 girls. My oldest sister was born in 55 and I was born in 59 so mom & dad had their hands full with 4 girls back, to back, to back and done. There was a set of Irish Twins in there, the first two.
We were all in highschool together which was not so much fun for me. Every time a new school year started and the teacher would do roll call, for me it was, “You don’t have a sister named, blah, blah, blah do you and I finally said no.” I learned they didn’t have such a great rep with the school staff, who knew.
Then the wedding’s and the babies started and yes more drama. Besides the 1st and last grand baby, there was at least 2 of us PG all the time for 10 years. One year a baby was born in February, June, November and the last one in March. Dad was pretty much a coo coo bird with all the baby drama.
We all had a pretty good time growing up together, it’s family what can I say.
One last thing, when we would be the “Monkey’s” a group from the 60’s I was Peter Tork, the last one who know one even knew and when we were the Beatle’s yes you got it I was Ringo. Whatever, I think they saved the best for last 😉 …
Another coincidence … My best friend that I’ve been with for around 45 years also has 4 sister’s in her family. We definitely know the drill. She was #2 and I was #4, but we do know what goes on in a family full of sister’s…Happy Tuesday, AtoZer‘s…
