Hold Your Friends Close, and Your Cats Closer
Monday, October 6th, 2008 | Uncategorized
My divorce was like a country and western song, slow, rambling and full of heartache. What is a girl to do in times like these? Well, you know that old saying- hold your friends close and your enemies closer? I think it should be hold your friends close and your cats closer. With that slight modification it would be perfectly suited as advice for those about to be divorced.
There is nothing more comforting while you are going through that sad, drawn out time then to get together with a friend or two or three, crack a bottle of wine and reminisce about good times you have had together. You know, don’t talk about him or the wedding or who is going to get what. Just talk about the fun you and your friends have had and plan on continuing to have. Maybe even start planning the next girls weekend trip. It gives you a bit of much needed stress relief and distracts your mind when you really need a break from the whole nasty proceedings.
Then after the girls are gone, cuddle up with the cats, after all, they are never going to do anything that would make you want to hire a lawyer, so you can count on them to be there for you. Cuddle up close and remember - there is an end to all this, and once it ends, life begins again.
