Personal Post: Grief

I haven't slept for two days. I've not slept well since I found out about Kathi. I can't believe she died this morning. I feel like I can't think

Send what you would have spent on flowers. Twenty-five dollars should be fine. I would contact the funeral home and ask if they have a fund set up. They should be able to help you figure out where the money should go.

I've honestly never sent money to a funeral before, or flowers. I've gone to funerals before, but not many as an adult. Contacting the funeral home is a good idea. I wish I could be there in person, but this has got to be a halfway decent compromise.

Thanks, lady.

I am so sorry. It's SO hard to lose a friend and feel so helpless. It sounds so immature, so elementary, but it's not fair. if there's anything I can do, seriously, anything, tell me. I want to help you and be there for you in this tough time--you've had a rough few months and if I had a wand I would take it all away. I know it's not enough, but I'm sorry

Thanks, babe. If we could just hang out soon, that would help immensely. I feel like I've lost so much in the last few months and I hate that it's been MONTHS since I've seen you. I wish I was more flexible.

I was thinking about you and Carol a lot lately. I know you two were closer than Kathi and I, but I'm so concerned for Zach and don't know how to help him. :(

I'm so sorry I didn't even think to give money to you for your mom. Kind of like the time I was invited to a bridal shower and didn't bring a gift from a registry but instead picked out some bridal bears. I just didn't know these things. I'm an ass, and I'm very sorry. :(

Thanks, honey. And I will get you the most badass camo bridal bears that have ever been squeezed into a tux and under a veil.

I wrote a check for $50. I don't remember if you posted this before or after the text I sent about donations. If you write a check, it's supposed to be made out to Amos Funeral Home, with Kathi's name in the memo line.

I also haven't been sleeping very well since finding out. Hopefully, being in Vicodin Narnia (due to your wisdom teeth) will help your sleep. *hug*

Thank you. I think I posted this before I received your text message--we ended up settling on $25. That's all we could afford, unfortunately; we just don't have any additional to spare right now.

I've slept really well that last few nights. It must be the Vicodin Narnia. :)

I am so sorry you lost a friend. Especially with all the other weight on your shoulders right now.
