Our first one year date was this Memorial Day when we first met the OW. The affair started 4th of July weekend and I found out 3 days before Thanksgiving so all big holiday triggers.

Memorial Day didn't go well because I was anticipating it. As we think ahead to 4th of July I like the idea of reclaiming it. I think I'd like us to go away with the kids cuz we tried go away this weekend but with the kids so added pressure.
