    Just look at all you've achieved since then.

    Yes indeed.
    Thank you for reminding me.
    We forget so easily.
    But yes I have come so far.
    Hopefully in another two years I will be much further along the way again.

    & I have been a naughty beanie & bought a rather expensive jumper.
    I loathe being cold.

    And think you will not have to turn the heating up a notch - so you will be saving there :T
    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It

    Fixed that for you :D.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
