Luckily you have a big family and a lot of awesome friends (and blog buddies) to support you and share some laughs.Dolly Irishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15037998324953825843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640533661753104103.post-40649955652797659392010-12-24T17:03:09.574-03:302010-12-24T17:03:09.574-03:30Cat, those are great sugggestions.

Get involved and have special one-to-one chats with certain people. There will be so much love in that room for you, but what you need is to engage with those different relationships. You will feel connected and feel love again.SMITHY GALLERYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764520808134426668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640533661753104103.post-67709052117613882922010-12-24T01:16:18.453-03:302010-12-24T01:16:18.453-03:30I think you are allowed to be sad.

I would also focus on the things that you LOVE this holiday, things that had nothing to do with your ex. The traditions that existed BEFORE your ex. That maybe he added to... but he did not create and they can exist without him. That's what I'm trying to do :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640533661753104103.post-58879664710704412182010-12-24T00:33:25.512-03:302010-12-24T00:33:25.512-03:30Thanks for the support, Amy.

Or I might take a "nap" and just read for a while in my room.TLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14147515224683607573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640533661753104103.post-21101615639919440582010-12-24T00:01:03.871-03:302010-12-24T00:01:03.871-03:30No particularly spectacular ideas, but it's ok...No particularly spectacular ideas, but it's ok to be sad, and it's ok to feel jealous and hurt by others happiness. It's normal.<br /><br />Take a long hot bath and (if you have a laptop), watch a TV show online or part (or all) of a movie. Or take a long bath and read.
