[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH left DC and I this fall, divorce is barely underway, and we are fragile. A friend invited us over for Thanksgiving with a big group of other families. Then this friend decided to make everyone go around saying what they were thankful for. She went first and I was next to her and was last. The 6 people before me alternated saying they were thankful for their family and thankful for their husband. I’m not sure what I even said. I was the only person there not in a couple but only about half the guests know about what STBX did, so it wasn’t ill-intentioned but was still a gut punch.

DC was at the kids’ table at least.

I can’t get curl up and watch a movie tonight because I have a meeting with my attorney tomorrow to prepare a ton of stuff for a court hearing next week, and I have to clean up my kitchen from making the sides and pies that no one ended up eating. [/quote]

Sending love to you tonight PP. Even if you can't indulge in some self care tonight, make a plan to do so tomorrow after your meeting. Hug your DC and tell them how much you live them. Think about how you are going to fill your home with love now that it's the two of you, and how you are stronger and better off without someone who can't appreciate you.

And no you aren't the only one are going tonight. I'm there too. Holidays are hard when life isn't looking or feeling great. But we'll get through it. We will.[/quote]
