SA - It's OK to cry, it shows your sensitivity and caring...I get easily emotional as well, sometimes it bugs me but I would rather be emotional then being a "cold fish".
You are a teacher? Wow... you get to have summer off with your kids...lucky

If the weather holds I'll be haying on the 4th. H has asked S26 if he can run the baler, so he'll be here. I help toss and stack the hay in the mow so will not have to interact much with H.
I figure a nice dip in the pool afterward while watching the fireworks that we can see from my place. Then a cookout/camp fire and a couple brews with friends will round out the day.
Nothing exciting, but if it works out it will be a good end to a long day!
Good, insofar as planning goes. Not that I'm counting, but this makes the 6th Holiday since we split up, Easter being the first. I'm in a much better place now than I was then.
I know it serves no purpose, but I still wonder if he thinks of and misses the holidays we had. Even the small ones, where he & I did something alone. He's got to be feeling this one. We always had a cookout and fireworks for all the kids. But, now he is playing Dad to her two kids.
