Today

Today my ex-choir teacher's husband died. It was an epic decision whether to send flowers, to not send flowers. My mother suggested fruit. I think...I will send fruit. I will put Robbie's and Sarah's names on it as well as mine, as it has been decided that group condolences are always more convenient. Now to find out what should be said; it should be non cheesy, uplifting, not denoting pity but giving sympathy. It should be something important.

"You were really important to all of us as we grew from children into women. Our sympathies in this difficult time, and here is a healthy alternative to flowers to ease your pain." HMmmmmm probably not gonna cut it.
