Last year I got OM a Christmas present. It was one of those stockings with chocolates wrapped in black foil to look like lumps of coal. Blew X away that I had gotten him something "in the spirit of the season", her words, and caught him off guard. I got a kick out of it too. I wonder if he ate the chocolate or was too afraid to.
I also surprised X by putting Christmas lights up on her (still legally our) business last year. I did that Thanksgiving Day when I didn't have my kids. It kept me busy and from feeling lonely or sorry for myself.
I can't say I didn't feel a little stupid when I did these things but they made me feel good.

"The answers are within you" (can't remember who). Unfortunately, so is the bullshit.
