Hello everyone, I'm a bit new here, so I hope I'm posting this in the right spot. I'm looking for a bit of help, and this looked like a good place to start.
I'm looking for a good way to celebrate the upcoming Beltane. Normally I wouldn't have any problems coming up with a way to celebrate, but this year, my husband is stationed overseas. The tricky part lies in the fact that I'm not going to be alone either. I have a friend who promised me that I "won't have to spend another holiday alone" and is going to spend the night with me, and make sure we do something special.
We already plan on having a small fire in the fire pit I own (so that's one tradition) and we haven't decided if we're going to go out to eat, or just stay home and have a nice dinner. However the problem comes with the rather most prominent tradition that we obviously can't quite partake in. There's some parts of me that say it would be fine to just leave it at that, and be happy that I'm at least not going to have to be alone, but there's also a part of me that at least wants something else that we could do that would be a bit more special.
Any ideas would be really helpful. Anyone I've talked to already doesn't have any ideas that quite work, as they range towards the realm of asking my husband if he minds if I go ahead and celebrate in the more traditional way....A conversation I'd rather just avoid for kind of obvious reasons.
Many thanks in advance
