In case anyone has been wondering where I’ve been for most of the last week, here lies the answer: I have been the victim of a vicious stomach bug that literally zapped all my energy for all of 6 days. My food intake during this time was minimal because I couldn’t stand the sight of food, which only made matters worse.

I believe other stress factors may have worsen the situation, namely, the fact I’m in the middle of my impending divorce and also a heavy workload. My divorce is nothing new really, I have been separated from my child’s mother for three years and we just never put closure to the marriage in the legal aspect. Now we are taking measures to legally divorce and we are ready to move on with our lives. The good part about it is that we are going through an amicable divorce and agree on almost all issues so it is not a contested divorce. This is very important to us for the well-being of our daughter and so that we can enjoy a healthy relationship as co-parents in the future. Still, it weights mentally on you.

She’s moving on with her life and I’m moving on with mine.

So there….this was a very personal post, but I thought I’d share.
