Happy Week-iversary?

by

Today was a bittersweet day, but it was more sweet than bitter. I called the courthouse to get an official divorce finality date and Happy Valentine’s Day it’s also my finalized divorce date. *snort*

Ex and I never celebrated Valentine’s Day with very much fanfare, and now I’m even more thankful for that. If you love someone, you need to tell them that every day of the year, not just on the 14th on February! It’s not as though you love one another more on that one day of the year, and he and I actually had a joke where we’d say that we loved one another more the day before Valentine’s Day. This year I had a marvelous Valentine’s Day with a bottle of wine, Thai take-out, LOST and my beautiful roommate Lump. Her mom sent us Valentine’s gifts, some of my work friends bought me a beautiful dragonfly pin and I truly felt loved by my girlfriends. That is how women need to spend Valentine’s Day.

So, my divorce is final. I have been legally & officially divorced for a week. I’m not saddened by this fact, I feel kinda detached and numb from it. I think I just hurt for so long about it that I’ve shut it off. Scuba Steve wants me to address the fact that I’ve pushed my anger waaaay deep down. I may write my letter here under password protected and get it out, but it’s been hard to even acknowledge the fact that I am angry about it still. I really feel like anger is a true waste of time emotionally and mentally, and while I haven’t told Scuba Steve that, I have been holding off being angry because it’s just wasteful. We’ll see what happens. Maybe before next Wednesday I’ll let it out - even if no one sees it maybe it’ll still come out.

    I think anger can be good in small amounts. No anger can be pretty usless. Still its not good to keep it bottled up. I use to workout with a punching bag. I know crazy but none the less it was a great stress/anger reless.

    Let me know if you need to talk. You’ve got my email. I’ve not been good for many comments lately, but that doesn’t mean anything more than comments are hard.

    As for anger, my experience is that it’s best to let it go. When it is gone it is forever, and if you don’t you have to live with it even if you don’t like it.
