It's next week..the first time alone after 17 yrs..
I'm not sure if I should pour a glass of wine for one - toasting the better days long past or just let it fade into oblivion & letting it become just another insignificant day on the calendar..
*sigh*..next up - The Holidays (WOOHOO!!!)

Life sucks rotten eggs..!

I personally didn't consider it an anniversary because we were separated and in the middle of divorce so I didn't consider that we were a couple and truly married.

Don't toast a marriage that is over. Instead keep yourself busy that day and let it become an insignificant day on the calendar. Do some positive things for yourself.

Go somewhere, do something that doesn't hold any memories. It's what I did last month when mine came up. It worked pretty well, at least while I was out doing that part. Home alone afterwards well...not nearly as well. But hey, at least part of the day was good when I was expecting it to be all bad. :)

I have about 2.5 months before I cross that bridge....I hope by then I will be able to handle it with dignity and without sadness.

If I am lucky, I will get so busy with work that it will pass without me noticing......a guy can always wish.
