Not Me...Ever part 2

[brownidmom]

It is good, Gardener. I felt better on my drive home today than I have felt in so long. At peace with myself. Once you make peace with yourself, everything else is just cake.

Well, this is all very good.
Honor the day, if not celebrate it. That's very good. Most on these boards who choose not to celebrate sometimes - sometimes - settle/compromise by "acknowledging" it. Honor. I like that.

Hijacking my friend's post on my other friend's thread. How's that?

The woman I talked to today has been separated from her H for 5 years now. She said she always celebrates her anniversary in some way every single year without her H. Seemed kooky when she first said it, but then I thought about and realized if I hadn't married him, I wouldn't have those two awesome young men I just sent to bed and need to go upstairs to hug and kiss before they fall asleep. And I meant every word I said on the day we married. That promise was to GOD as much as it was to H and myself. I have lived up to it. And it just came to me, I should HONOR the day. And I will.

And the movie with the boys, well they started taking us out to the movies a few years ago on Mother's Day, then Father's Day, etc. Tonight we picked out Olive Garden for lunch and Where the Wild Things Are for the movie. I am looking forward to it.

Serenity, sorry for re-hijacking your thread in response to our friend's hijack of of my original hijack!!!
