tough day today

Today is a tough day for me. I was in a relationship with a narcissist for 2 years. It is the typical story of sweep me off my feet, get to know my child, promises of the future, then completely cut off 19 days ago. He gave me a ten minute closure conversation and I fell empty and alone. I have educated myself about narcissism and tried my best to recover day by day. I do not have my daughter today and we spend last Thanksgiving together he and I alone and it was great. Today is the first day he has contacted me via text with a Happy Thanksgiving wish. This made me feel worse. I know things will get better for me with time, but it is very painful and sad. I know he is not right or good for me but I still miss the friendship, companionship and intimacy. For me this was a shock. Only afterwards did I put the pieces together regarding narcissists. Any advice to cope with the holidays? I have plenty of invites, but don't feel like going...
