We are slowly moving towards the new normal here in Valencia and as usual l will have the update. First, l have a conversation with Cheryl, a lifestyle blogger who had to get used to a new normal after her long term marriage dissolved. She found herself suddenly single while her deadbeat ex (her words) got pretty much everything and went into hiding.
