Glad to hear you have arrived safely. Hope your time there helps to keep your mind off H.
As for your anniversary... my thought is to send a short email back... short message like "hope you are having a nice day, thinking of you" and then go out with your friend for a few glasses of wine and an awesome dinner.
All the best, MM
