I fully agree with you on this one and back in my separation/divorce a big part of GALing was looking incredible. It's a huge boost to the ego.
This advice is something I used to recommend quite a bit on the separation board. I know it drove my husband absolutely crazy to see me looking so great. Also, sometimes I'd come home while he was here with the kids (just wating for me to get back) and I'd pull phone numbers out of my pocket and dump them in the trash. He'd get this concerned, sort of crazed look. It was priceless.
There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
