little explanation

A week ago I said there will be no daily updates to this blog. That not means at all that the blog is to be closed. Only that there are too many things in my life and I had to put blog updates in lower priority.

I wish to thank all the mails I received. I won't answer each one, much better an open post explaining why.

My health is OK (most mails ask if I'm ill or something), in fact I feel much better than ever, I'm loosing my beer belly. I re-started the healthy custom of making a couple of hours of walking every day.

Main issue is that I am a divorced man and according spanish laws I don't have the right to exist. I was already being leeched (around 50% of my salary, even with my ex-wife earning a lot more than me). I have to pay feeding of my daughter, half the mortage of my ex- house, the rent of my own and half the extra expenses.... and still I have to cope with my own expenses (clothing, gas, electricity, phone, feeding, transport, etc..)

My ex wife demanded me additional 11.000 €, and the judge ordered to use all my salary for the payment.

That means that I will be around 8 months working as usual and receiving not a single penny. To worsen things, each month my debt will grow in around 1.000 € (what I actually have to pay monthly to my ex). And when I finish with the 11.000 € I will have an additional 8.000 € to pay.

In short. The judge thinks I can live on air for around two years and a half.

Yes, life is shit sometimes, but it's only an economical problem. Almost everything else in my life ranges from plainly OK to excellent, so not other things to complain. I should feel lucky.

Now it seems my company will help me with the 11.000 €. I don't know how or when I will be able to give them back this money, but at least they say I'm not very much obliged to return them the money. There were other alternatives, as living in a car begging in the streets, dissapear in a far away country, change my name, simulate my death, etc etc... But I'm too lazy ;-)

As you can imagine I have other things in mind.

On the other hand, today I'll have a meal with one of the most beautiful women I've never seen. She's pretty, young and she likes me ;-) (but please, don't blame her for lack of updates)

Here is a video (in spanish) taken from a program in spanish public TV regarding the economical situation of many spanish divorced men (my situation is not an exception, it's the rule in many many cases):
