16 years ago today I thought I was marrying my life partner, my best friend, and my future.
Today is a very tough day for me. I was suppose to work tonight and I took the day off...I am sick with a horrible cold and sore throat..so the kids will be at school today and then off to their Dad's tonight and I am going to have a "ME" day.
It is so hard NOT to give so much power to a "date"....but for years that date brought so much happiness and love for me.
I have to breathe, feel the emotions, and let go.
Refocusing....
I see my love in 6 days and I can't wait.
I received my third card yesterday from Dan. Cheesy Valentine's Day cards...love them! Last year I took all of the two weeks worth of cards and collaged them...not sure what I will do with this years.

I know what you mean - the power of the mind is crazy strong.
Have a GREAT me day! I need one of those soon
So my thought would be to help take away the power of a date that brings you sadness is to do something that would make you smile at the memory instead. I don't have the tongue piercing anymore and yes, the failed engagement is still part of the story but when I think of that day I think of going into the shop with two of my closest friends while they held my hand and watched me get pierced and just having fun on the day that I would have probably cried my eyes out otherwise!
Dan is a sweetie...I would do another collage with them if I were you - If I were me, I'd stick them in the closet with all my other stuff because I am not so creative!
