[quote=Anonymous]Timely post. The 1 year anniversary of my father's death was Wednesday. I was expecting it to be really difficult and structured my work day with that expectation. I spent some time thinking about him. I wrote a Facebook post and tagged his profile in it. I had a cup of coffee using one of his mugs with the urn containing his ashes. I cried a little. I had been thinking about how to handle that morning, and this was what I came up with. It worked okay. Honestly, I think I psyched myself out about how upset I was likely to be, and then when the day came, it wasn't that bad. My brother first pretended he didn't know what day Dad died, and then he basically got really drunk. He lives across the country. My sister reached out to both of us saying some kind of memorial platitude. I don't know that either of them did anything structured like I did.[/quote]
