Thank you, Cheryld and PaulB; you are both right and it so helpful to read and get acknowledgement for this part of the challenge. I may be nuts but when I am feeling down, I go back to these threads and they give me courage and acceptance that makes things a bit easier.

PaulB - what a chef you've become! Reading about your scrambled eggs, hamburgers and bacon with breakfast is quite inspiring. Too bad you are so far away: you could open a catering business and I would sign up for 3 meals a day!!

Thanks!
