Can I join in the guy chat? I'm also not out GALing this pm - although I was out GALing for the day at my workshop, which was good.

I would like to vote YES for peppers...I love them - romano, chilli, ordinary yellow ones...I had a lovely lasagne with peppers in tonight, kindly made for me by one of my Mum's carers, who's a great cook. She makes big batches and brings some over - and well, it would be rude to refuse...

Eds, great news about the clothes - good for you! It's always worth trying on the smaller size. Well fitting is always more flattering than baggy.

Another thread coming to an end eh? Well, that's more time passed and more learned and practiced. And a step towards a resolution of some kind too.

You say that you are just chugging along - well that's just fine. We always need to remember the two great warhorses of this approach - time and patience. Yes, we learn new skills and approaches and we put them into practice too, but time and patience are so important....you're doing really well I think! :-)
