Well yesterday was the one year anniversary of my divorce. I felt like such a complete and total failure on that day. I tried to will myself not to cry but the thought of it made me sick. What a difference a year makes. I barely thought about the divorce yesterday. I don’t miss the ex-husband at all, sometimes perhaps I miss some of the jokes we shared.

I’m thankful now.

This has been a journey. I couldn’t imagine that one year from the divorce I’d be in love with a wonderful man who loves me and supports me in everything I do. Life isn’t all diamond necklaces and chocolate covered strawberries but it isn’t the gloom and doom I imagined last year either.

Last night I rolled over in bed, kissed him on the forehead and told him how much he means to me. Damn I’m happy to have met him.
