A long lag....

It has been some months since I posted.  I am getting a divorce.  It takes a lot of energy to live with someone that you know does not love you, that you know has chosen your replacement and is planning his life with her via phone calls, e-mails and text.  Husband and I chose to wait until school was out before telling Thing1 and Thing2, so it is a stress that I chose to take upon myself.  It was not easy, but I believe it was the best choice for us.  The downside is that it apparently takes a lot of energy to be in proximity to someone that you love that does not love you back.

I have been eating crappy foods.  I wonder why we call them "comfort foods" when the reality is that they make us feel worse physically.  Sometimes, it really felt like I was punishing myself in some way for some reason by eating food that I knew would make me feel sluggish and bloated.

I am on day #3 of adding smoothies to my daily regimen in order to get my body back to some semblance of healthy.  I feel crappy, and I brought it on myself.  So, I will be working to fix everything physically with me so that I may better support my children emotionally.

So.... sorry for the lag, life has been shifting, and I had to reserve my energies.  I will shortly be shopping, cooking, and posting.  :-)
