Set arraignments earlier than the holidays. Set doctors visits early in the am’s to avoid confrontation with holiday goers. Plan mini vacations to remote places, yoga hyper focus on exercise drinking tons of water. Groupons for bway off bway plays rock climbing kick boxing or cosmetic procedures. Sign up for volunteers services meet ppl there to converge with. Museums on free days or a set television program that ya just can’t miss. If dinner reservations is not your thing sub for a cozy dinner ice skating is always fun. Substitute replace and go. entertainment entertainment light candles and incense relax relax go to the movies see the latest flick. Pick up a Stephen king novel try to finish it by the new yr. Start a hobby photography of knitting at home crochet. Fuck the holidays. I’m Muslim I don’t celebrate those feelings or ideologies. Be normal.keep calm and carry on.

Thanks @A MyDepressionTeam Member, I try to focus on the special times we did have together. She was such an amazing woman. I will never ever forget her. Rest in Peace Olga! I'll see you when it's my turn xox
Forgot to add... she had 2 zebra finches and when she passed her family gave them to me. I was so overwhelmed and i love them to pieces. They are my pride and joy!!! I'll pin a pic up of them!! :-)

Go where you can go, don't go where you can't or don't want to go. This year when I go visiting with my wife, I'm taking my own car and when it's time to bail, I'm out.
