Merry Divocedmas!

Merry Divorcedmas!  And Happy New You, too!

Divorce sucks. The process. But BEING divorced is like waking up early on Christmas morning as a bright eyed 6-year-old. After weeks of anxiety over what to ask for, writing letters to the big man, trying hard be on good behavior, attending forced family gatherings, and all the other crap that has to be endured just to get to the good part, is all well worth it.

The preparation leading up to Christmas is exhilarating and exhausting. A roller coaster of extreme highs which in an instant can turn into low lows. Yet, the big day is always on the horizon getting closer and closer until finally it arrives. And the stress and anxiety vanish with the simple turning of a clock.

Christmas Day.

Divorced Day, like Christmas Day, should be thought of as exciting. A new beginning. Excitement of the new, the fresh, and the unknown little presents just waiting to be opened and discovered.

So, MERRY DIVORCEDMAS!
