(((NNP))) Anniversarys are still hard for me and I've been divorced 2 years! Mine would be next week. I had breakfast with my ex last month (I am now out of state, but was back near him visiting my daughter). It was a healthy thing for me to do.....he is still not happy! I blamed myself for so long even when I knew I had been the best wife I knew how to be.
I would like to borrow your goals....all but the last one since I have no sons.
I know I will be sad on our anniversary date in Aug. Someday maybe it will be just another day, but not now. I still mourn the loss of my marriage, and that's ok...
I wrote just another day, but I didn't treat it that way. A friend of mine in Chicago got Cubs tickets that day -- late April -- and I headed there for the night.
So if it's not "just another day" yet, do something special for yourself.

I like to buy myself flowers.....just the $4 bunch at the grocery store, but it still is a treat!
Last year I was a bit mean and sent my ex a message on what would have been our anniversary telling him I was enjoying an egg mcmuffin instead of eggs benedict which would have been our traditional anniversary breakfast. Don't think he "got it".
I did something for myself last weekend Mat... something totally out of the ordinary for me! LOL I took the state motorcycle safety course... all three days that he was home!
