FUCKING THREE!

Day 523.

I wrote today to my sister about a wedding that we are invited to. 

I wanted to say that we were all invited. 

I hesitated several times as I could not bring myself to write the number of us that were invited.

I could not bring myself to write that we (and I hesitate now) that we were three.

THREE! Fucking three!

I am still in a family of four, so I wrote that we were all invited.

All of us are invited, and the groom, my emotionally intelligent godson, who continues to send Christmas cards with Luke’s name included, would agree.

Although when I went through the business-like counting of his guest list (I am doing the calligraphy) I noted that Luke’s name was absent. It’s a working document, so of course it was.

Another omitting his name is one thing. ME omitting it, in an email is quite another.
