Sorry for not replying. Christmas isn't my favorite time, and i've been kind of out of the loop. I just wanted to say thanks - your support means a lot. Something Deb said struck a chord - because of its similarity to my new mantra - trying and failing is ok, not-trying is not. That's how i'm trying to live my life at the moment. Things are, on the surface, pretty much the same, but i'm just trying to see them in a different light. Hope you all had a reasonable christmas, and i wish you all a happy and healthy new year.
