A little over a year later my dad introduced us to marykay who had 2 kids of her own.
younger than me,a girl and a boy we where at a picnic,i got along with the girl but the boy was a wild thing. well seems like not too long after that they got married and moved into our house.
so now i had another sister and a brother,boh younger than me lost my status as the baby in the house. shortly after this happened marykay called me and told me i had to call her mommy or i would get a spanking.So from that day forward i called her mommy.So there was six kids in the house now got very crowded,3boys in 1 bedroom 3 girls in the other bedroom.I had 2 older brothers and 1 older sister.then 3 years later the younger brother eddie was playing with matches in the upstairs closet and started a fire so we lost everthing in the house had to move in with my aunt and uncle and 2 twin cousins.my first real big problem with markaythat i can remember was while we stayed there.i had borrowed my cousin barrets for my hair and while at school i lost 1,well when i got home i had hell to pay,marykay was furious she started slapping me in the face so hard she gave me a bloody nose.i think thats when i started hating her.
me and the younge sister diane always got treated the same as far as clothes, gifts, privleges even tho i was 2 years older. and i can remember we where gong somewhere and was told to get in the carwell eddie and diane was playing with the gadgets in the car like the lights etc,and killed the battery but when it was found out marykay grounded all of us she said well its for doing things ive probably done before.so whatever they did wrong i got in trouble too.
There was never pictures on our walls of my mother while i grew up,its like she was forgotton.
i had my best friend living across the street her name was mitzi. most of the time my older sister pat would babysit us and my older brothers jimmy and michael had to work when they where old enough,had to pay room and board.Marykay would compliment her own daughter diane and most times put me down.5th grade i met the new kid on the block her name was cindy her and i became real close we went to the same school while mitzi went to catholic school.
so cindy and i became best friends and the made mitzi mad not because she lost me as a best friend but she wanted to be cindy's best fiend so we had my of fights over that.
then mitzi announced she was moving to another town in a nicer house with a wtbar even we where wow thats kool,only to find out its a bar with a sink,we laughed bout that for days.
