It was my antiversary yesterday and the first few hours weren't easy. I was quite emotional about dropping off the kids at school for the week. I didn't like the symbol of my failed marriage and my part-time parenting. I've never thought it would be me and sometimes I still have a hard time accepting that it is my life. I went back at lunch time to drop some stuff for D7 and held them both in my arms. D3 asked why I had tears in my eyes and I eluded the question. The afternoon and evening were better, but my productive streak is over.
WW kindly wrote me on that important day to tell me that... they hired a hot new secretary at their office that looks like Joan Holloway (Christina Hendricks in Mad Men). I replied with a video of said character who tries to adapt to modern technology. My thought was more wondering if OM would go after her, like he went after WW when she joined the office...
I've been thinking a lot about writing a letter to WW, without even sending it, but strangely, I lose interest as soon as I sit in front of my computer. It spins in my head, sometimes obsessively, yet it bores me when it's time to actually do it. Oh well.
Still dragging my feet on the D paperwork. I should really get to it next week. Sigh.
Sorry you are struggling w/ the memories the Anniversary triggers. I'd just tell your kids that you are sad that you don't get to spend more time with them because they are so special to you, and that love them so much. Make it a moment to strengthen your bond with them. It is what you are feeling in a significant way, so share it with them.
Maybe you should ask WW for an intro to the new secretary. Just saying...
