cellio | (no subject)

Earlier tonight (before dinner) I saw my friend Jan for the first time in about two months. (I know her from Temple Sinai, and that's where I saw her.) Her father died a few days ago, and this was the first night after the shiva so she came to services. (I am also frustrated that I didn't know this before tonight, or I would have tried to visit her, at least for the minyan.) Sigh. This has not been a good year for my friends in this regard.
