A long time ago, another place, another time, with strange, but loving people, my sisters and I became known as "January and Company." I had absolutely NOTHING to do with the name but everyone knew it meant me, beth, beka, and whomever else I could con into helping us pull off some wild scheme...
One time it was an old-time christmas musical where we dressed up
in long skirts and made the guys wear paper top hats.
One time it was singing christmas carols with buck teeth made
of lemon rind (sp?) at a perfectly respectable senior adult dinner.
One time it was selling spaghetti dinners to our town to raise money.
Whatever, whenever, however, I know two sisters who will ALWAYS
be the "company". They will ALWAYS make the crazy things I say
"Yes" to actually happen. They will cut or paste or color or sing
or roll tiny bits of asparagus up in cream cheese covered roast beef
+
to make cute pinwheels, or make an 11 layer, 3 tiered, chocolate
cake with strawberry cream cheese filling.
They NEVER get all the praise and accolade they deserve
because when it's "January and Company" as much as I say
"This never would have happened without my sisters"...somehow
the "company" never gets told how good they did, or how much they
were needed, or how it would have been impossible without them...
And they were good, and they were needed, and it was
only possible because they were there to help.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU
p.s. could we possibly create another name soon...
and also get our pic taken together b/c I can't find
a recent one of us all 3 together and it's anoying...
