Anniversary Dinner

Today's been rougher than usual, and to be honest, the usual day lately is already fairly challenging. I got an email from the Washington Park Grille, offering a free anniversary dessert. Part of me wanted to have cereal for dinner, and curl up in a ball. The Dad in me said, "Free?? Go get it!" And a big part of the rest of me just wanted to get out and do something special in honor of what would've been Kristan's and my 30th wedding anniversary. I'm so sorry/sad we didn't make it to this moment together... But I know she would've loved the Alaskan salmon - it was delicious! The EAP counselor I talked to a couple of weeks ago, reminded me to keep both grieving and mourning, as long as it takes to heal, and tonight I guess I'm doing a lot of both. The Key Lime Pie is also amazing, by the way...
