Hey @Ant7 @TAB @Flying_Hams @DJMasters @frog 

I'm poorer (after buying the oven!) & tireder (after sleepover party for 11yo) but fine thanks.

guess its better having a new oven ? @Sam3 

[Sam3]

Still has to be installed later in the week thanks @TAB - could be an excuse for not cooking all week 😉 How is your situation thesedays? I'm still in de-skilling boring job but relatively well paid so I'm very grateful.

@Ant7 @Flying_Hams @DJMasters @frog have any of you been affected by the "not good enough" theme?! . I'm embarking on seeing a psychologist to try to tame that beast but not sure it's possible to even mitigate it when I'm aware of it but can't shift it (I believe it is one major trigger for my depression). She says EMDR can be helpful for family of origin/long term stuff. I'm really disabled by that theme (stops me from trying sometimes & the constant negative comparisons are exhausting at times)
