Examples of perspectives, compromises, mellowings, and other life arrangements and attitudes that you currently have where it took you a long time to find out, realize, accept, or arrive at, please.

I have a condition called Raynauds that affects the flow of blood through blood vessels. (Mostly in fingers, toes and ears). - There are worse conditions out there, but it often leaves my hands and ears riddled with chilblains. For many people its the cold that triggers the problem, but for me it's going from the cold into a hot environment.

A pal of mine has that. Its the cold that triggers it with him. His hands swell up quite badly.

.. intended to score points or vent a lingering grudge

You are being untruthful about my threads But you do sound like you are describing almost every single one of Suzianne's posts.

I must have missed it. What weird things does it do to your ears and fingers? Easy access to the fridge makes you sound like you are always snacking. 🙂

I think it's quite a common condition with varying degrees of severity. It's a sudden change in temperature I struggle with.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
Another example? Ok:

'The pigs have moved into the farmhouse.'

Wasn't that a thread born out of a grudge?

@Ghost-of-a-Duke
Strike two.

That must make life quite difficult for you at times. We never know what someone is going through on a daily basis do we.
