We participate in R&M's Thanksgiving dinner every fall. Each time, I look forward to seeing one of the regular guests, Debi. She's fun, cute, interesting, and owns and runs a bookstore. She was all excited about the voice lessons I'm taking, and wanted a referral to my teacher. I wanted to get together with her more often than just once a year, at Thanksgiving.
She died in her sleep Thanksgiving night! Aaaah, how could that happen??!! I must follow up on my instincts to get together with people I meet while they're still here. I regret not knowing her better. I resolve to spend more time with friends, and be and make better friends.
