Write my will. I need to do this! I did sign up for Chanel Reynolds’ “Get Your Shit Together"monthly nudge, though.
Have a one-night stand. I got married young and Mormon, so I missed out on this before I got married.
Have drinks with my divorced/separated friends. Mandatory, as much as possible.
Go out as mutton dressed like lamb. No one will die as a result.
Get in shape. I started with spin class and have now added running. This helps ward off depression, makes you feel energetic and powerful, and okay, maybe helps you look a bit better, too.
Get a grip on my finances. Where is my money coming from, how much do I have, where is it all going? What are my goals?
Flake. I’ve become an expert.
Do therapy. Can’t even imagine doing divorce without this.
Get a massage. (Why stop at one?)
Learn to say no. I needed to set new limits so I wouldn’t feel overwhelmed — or guilty.
Learn to say yes. On the other hand, saying yes to trying new things helped me move forward.
Sleep in ridiculously late while my kid is at his dad’s. One benefit of your family now living in two different households.
Have sex in a restaurant bathroom. Maybe not all the time, and pick your place well, but you should go for it at least once.
Flirt with strangers. They just might flirt back.
Binge-watch Louie and every joke Louis C.K. has ever made about divorce. He’ll make you laugh about everything you’d otherwise cry over.
Spend a day in bed crying. Get up the next day and move on with your life.
Find an inspiring divorced couple. It started out Laurie and Larry David because they still get together for family dinners. I added Etheline and Royal Tenenbaum. Who else?
Smoke a hookah. Not a healthy lifestyle choice, but fun to try once.
Make a list of everything I want in my next boyfriend. Because hope is healthy.
Date outside my type. How’d that type work out last time? Not so great, right? Yup, time to try something new.
Buy and wear something slinky that makes me feel hot. Just so I remember I’m still young and alive.
Form a divorce advisory board. You know, the people who’ve been there and can give you advice.
Pay it forward and talk with a friend who just separated from her husband. I need to do this more often, but it’s how I show my gratitude to the friends who helped me.
Find something about my marriage to laugh about. Remember the good times, go easy on us both.
Kill a mouse in my house. The first time was horrible. The second time was empowering. The third time made me think it’s time to gas the place.
Read journals from before I was married. That helped me remember who I was before and why I got married in the first place.
Eat ice cream for dinner. I did this once and was shocked at how good it made me feel. And then I never did it ever, ever again.
Stay up all night writing about all the ways I been wronged. Consider publishing a memoir. Decide against it because my child is still living. Maybe it could just be a country song? Move on and think about the role I played in my relationship.
Get my driver’s license. Still working on this.
Learn to forgive. That’s when you’re truly free.
