Mother earth Sarah called this morning to say that this was last minute but she wanted to ask if I was free this afternoon to come to a party to say goodbye to her pinkie toe on her right foot. She had a fall down a flight of stairs on her way to an AA meeting a couple of months ago. She was sober which makes this seem even more unfair. Some how in the fall she basically killed her toe.
I knew that Thursday it would be removed and was thinking I should at least check in on her to see how she was doing. Ends up , she is at least emotionally healthier than the rest of us. He husband served us sparkling cider and a variety of nibbly things including 5 kinds of dips. There were toasts made to the lost toe. A poetry tribute was given.
This may have been the most cheerful ,odd little luncheon I can recall being part of in a very long time.
