I think a lot of us wish that we could have bad memory amnesia. But think of all the good things you have now :) Your heart is just too big it can hold all the good and the bad :)
This must be a rough day for you. I'm sorry. You deserve a long soak in the tub with a glass of wine, and a fun phone call with Mr. B., right?
Think warm fuzzy thoughts, go to that happy place and then this day too shall pass, and tomorrow is full of wonderful surprises.
I hear ya Sister, I have FIVE of those days every year.
I try to just be grateful for the nice kids and gifts I got from those fateful days : )
you are beautiful! now come on over and have a glass ofwine,bud light with lime or juice of your choice and lets snuggle by the fire AND hot tub!
Mrs. Parks is right (don't tell her I said so, but she does need to put her brace back on).....just remember the happy things you got from having gone through that day.....your 2 beautiful girls!!!! You can handle everything else!!!
You and Mr. B should make a new memory for this day. Something good.
Oh Lizzie! Do something fun tonight and make today be a good memory. Just think if you hadn't gone through that phase of your life then you wouldn't be where you are now...better, stronger and more secure in the knowledge that you are a wonderful woman! Hug your babies tight and call Mr. B! We love you Lizzie!
Goodness - this has got to be a rough day for you. You have come such a long way since then though. You certainly know more about what you want, deserve and need in life. It doesn't matter how long ago it was...it was the first stepping stone to finding the real you. So don't think of it as the day when you got married - think of it as the day you started the learning process.
I'm sorry that day was stuck in your head. It was a day that was meant to be something very different than what you are left with in the end - and I have those memories too. But look at how cute you were!!!
Happy Anniversary... Don;t mind me, I was just Blog stalking you!
um... so I am a horrible person... It just occurred to me that it was a bad memory... My apologies. If you go to my blog and watch 'The Time Warp' It'll make you smile, I promise :)
Ahhh, this day will get UNSTUCK someday soon, I promise! It did for me!!!
Mine's tough to forget too, since it was on my birthday...
I agree with the others - go have fun, and make some new, happy memories for this day. And you do have two wonderful somethings to show...maybe they're the reason you were meant to be with him in the first place?
Awww...but you know...it was good THAT day..and that's okay :-)
But look at that big smile on your face! And look at the two fabulous things you got out of that special day. You were a beautiful bride then...and next year, you'll be a gorgeous bride!
You made lemonade out of lemons and it's names are Gert & Essie. That's the silver lining. Just try to remember that instead. :-)
This was the day that started your journey to Gert & Essie. There's nothing sad about that!
I'm not sure what happen between you all.
I will say that I must of known my marriage wasn't going to last because I never put any of the wedding photo's in a book. Oh wait, I didn't with my second marriage either opps.
You do look happy in the picture.
Lizzy, today (10/26) would've been my 17th anniversary with my first husband. I was thinking about posting about it, too, just reflecting on how much life has changed and how different it is than what I expected, back then. Not sure if I will or not......
I wish you all the happiness in the future!
{hug}
You can look on it as the anniversary of the date that led to your girls....sort of a "family day" celebration.
I was married 11 years too. Woulda been 13 this November 25. I still have issues. We will be ok :D
I have no idea what it is like to go through what you have; however, I would think you'd celebrate this day because the result of it was your two beautiful girls! (((hugs))) They're worth every minute!
with the bad, comes the good. with the bad, comes the learning. with the bad, comes the knowledge that you deserve only the best. with the bad, comes the YOU. You are who you are because of what you've experienced. So take the bad and remember what you got from it - what you learned - what you know - and what you have now. Love ya!
You know...for a wedding picture...you guys are pretty far apart...perhaps that was foretelling:-( I hope you made the most out of a bad memory day.
I liked Kat's comment. You were happy for a while, and you got some wonderful results from that marriage with your children, so just focus on that and move on. That date will stick with you, but in a good way! And here's to what the future may bring!
I think it's a nice reminder of how far you have come, don't let it get you down!
I see this and I think, "She is an amazingly strong woman!" I also think you're beautiful...on the inside and out.
You were a beautiful bride, hon. Oct 25 will always be part of your history. There's nothing wrong with that! (((hugs)))
