Thank you. You are as well.

Just to thank you for your positive post. I keep on meaning to reply to it. I think often people with OCD fail to acknowledge our successes - it's not a big deal for most people just walking down the road without retracing their steps, but for me it's success! And success is always a personal as much as - or more than - a public thing.

How is the pastry and cake making and music going? Do let us have updates - positive posts are always uplifting.

Thank you! I agree with you, and if no one told you today, I am proud of you for your accomplishments, no matter how big or small.

The pastry and cake making is going well! It is a side gig for me, and I love it. I haven’t performed or played much music lately, but I want to get back into it more. I do sing frequently though 😊

And thanks to you! I think it's important that we notice our little successes rather than only beating ourselves up for our failures.

I enjoy cooking a lot, though my oven is bust and I only have a little plug in one you can't easily make a cake in, though I did try recently. Edible, but not something I'd feel comfortable serving to guests! My cakes come out like the sort of sponge you'd clean a bath with, rather than light and fluffy.

Do keep up with the music! Creative outlets are absolutely essential, and it's great to have a talent that gives other people pleasure.
