So for a calming cup of coffee in the specific mug she requested last time, Dee Jay will be in here later.

I may not be as good looking as you Lizzy and Dee Jay may prefer your coffee and company, but she likes to pick on me, just to keep me on my toes. :lol:

Hey all, gotta make my rounds on hugs for everyone

*****HUGS*****

Okay, just stopped by to see my favorite people and get some energy.

... How about ... A large Mocha with extra shots of espresso and something with a ridiculous amount of chocolate.

Amy,

Handing you your Mocha with extra shots of espresso and lots of chocolate. Topped with a Hershey kiss.

Hugs,

So this Memorial day we gave her a hot cup of 'straight black' Libya-brewed-with-a-fly coffee, in an aluminum cup with a big dent on the side and a semi squashed handle - and so hot she burned off her eyebrows. We put her on an elevator which dropped 45 floors - so she could feel right while pouring it into the cup - then whisked her through town standing up in the convertible at 165 mph, shooting at her with blanks (hope they were blanks). She yelled out something but it was too noisy to hear, and she signaled we were number one with her!

Nothing too good for our Veterans!

Lizzy

*snif*....yeah, it was beautiful....

Coffee that could peel paint and a very special cup....just like 'ole times....

Thanks, Hon.

Just the usual, please!

I have my own 42 oz cup (trying to cut back).

Colombian or Dark French Roast - grind the beans iffin you would - like'er fresh and sassy!

About a half pint of half & half, iffa ya would please my dear... none a that watery whole milk stuff or that powdered - whatever it is - coconut dust? malt-o-meal?

And a few packets of natural sweetener, not that pink, or yellow, or blue chemical concoction. And don't stir it - I like that 'sudden sweetness' at the bottom of the cup.

Serve it hot, serve it lukewarm - don't care that much. Just serve it! Will be my breakfast usually - nothin' else needed.

[Dee Jay does the coffee most days, and I hav'ta confess, I love her for that! Sally does not partake, but she is strange in other ways too.]

Lizzy

Oh oh oh - Coffee with 'chicory' is for the tourists... but cafe au lait is the real deal, especially with beignets! Oh ma cherie! BON BON BON

Lizzy's usual coming up. And no one touch it because if you do, I will cut you off coffee and pastries! Took my time getting it just right.

Lizzy, I am joining you for a cup.

Colombian and French Roast are both good choices and half and half is a must. Natural sweetener is good, but I like Splenda too. And I like flavored creamer, depending on the mood.

Flavored coffee, no way.

Since you prefer cafe au lait with beignets, and are just having a regular cup of coffee right now, how about some fresh cannoli?

Is that those little Italian things with tomato sauce and cheese on them?

The picture would be mouth-watering and Dee Jay, I have a feeling you are kidding about not knowing what a cannoli is...but since you asked...

Cannoli are Sicilian pastry desserts. Cannoli consist of tube-shaped shells of fried pastry dough, filled with a sweet, creamy filling usually containing mascarpone.

Wow John, I've been spending too much time in the real world and missed the re-opening of the coffee shop ....

I've been getting ready for winter, getting the last few miles out of the bikes and putting them in storage. :(

I sure could use a nice big hot spiced Chai Latte, and if you don't mind put a little cinnamon on top please. :)

Big Hugs

Shelley

      Well I have been absent recently due to my new hobby of computer gaming. I have worked on a collection of NES, SNES, N64, Sega and now revamping up my PlayStation 1 and 2 collection and then will get Xbox original. My computer isn't powerful enough to run Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 games. It's fun to see the old games that I grew up with.

      It's truly bizarre, the changes that have happened over the years. Larger houses on smaller blocks of land which means less trees because there's no room for them, so less shading and the resultant need to run air-con harder, which adds to suburban heat sink, which results in higher local ambient temperatures, which results in increased air-con use. Vicious circle.

      I don't have "air" here, so I pretty much live with what Mother Nature gives me.  Fortunately, there are trees in my yard which helps in the NC summer.  Windows and doors open all summer - closed up in winter. I do have fans, ceiling and windows. When you think about it, everyone used to live this way.

      I cannot say that I have. As much as we hope that love, compassion, and therapy help, sometimes opening ourselves up to individuals who later to out to disingenuous, results in worsening of the original trauma. In addition, it may provide a secondary trauma. I have experienced this first hand, and it has left me hardened more than diamond or titanium. There is an emptiness that grabs you when you have been betrayed for innocently opening ourselves up, only to find someone who has went behind your back, and tried to destroy your life.    As for therapy, well, for some of us it works I suppose, until we either run out of money. Insurance is often not useful. There are many "counselors" who will not accept the insurance payments, but will willingly charge much more. When my counselor unilaterally decided to increase charges from 130/session to 180/session, I said enough is enough. I survive, sometimes despite myself. I have paid a fortune out of pocket for everything, and have no illusions about it. If I did not pay what I paid, I would not have received the services including the counseling. Transactional? Yes. I already knew I was transgender. That little gift will exist until my last heartbeat occurs. I will endure because I want to, and because my job/profession benefit others.    It was hard enough coming out later in life. I knew it would be hard. If I had a choice, would I choose to be transgender? No. If I had it to do over again, I would never tell a soul. I would take everything to the grave with me.

      Good question, when it comes to love, the trauma from past makes it hard for me to know wither someone really loves me or not. My therapist suggested that I embrace my femininity more, due to my past trauma held me back from doing so and forgive those who mistreated me.

      So good to read.  He certainly understands.  "Not all bills turn into law, but they're all acts of hate that affect our kids in very devastating ways," Helping those children is critical!   Hugs,   Charlize

      Hi MaeBe, good question about the T fighting back.. things to keep in mind for some of us who are on the E, levels may respond differently which requires a treating doctor to monitor both the T and E levels, there might be other test work to be done as well. I don't know what my T levels are, except I have a hormone imbalance. Oh yeah, I use the oral type of E not the shots, my treating doctor plans for me to use the patch form of E later on.

      Good morning everyone,    Just when I think the crate and potty training is going well. Parker has decided that the laundry room is a good place to do his business. He rings the sleigh bells at the back door to go outside to potty, has not made the connection to needing to do his business. He is only 10 weeks old and still very much a young puppy.    On another note the rest of my world is going well, and off schedule. The only way I know what day of the week it is by looking at my phone. @Willowand @awkward-yet-sweet my wife and I keep our house on the cool side holding the thermostat on 69° F year round. We also have ceiling fans moving the air in each room. She even sleeps with an additional isolating fan in her bedroom. I think that one is more about white noise than cooling. I’m glad central Indiana is in a moderate temperature zone allowing us to experience distinctly different seasons.    Hug,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well I've been surviving at least that is something. Heading to visit the oldest and family tonight. Haven't seen them since before xmas. I just wish they would come visit us. None of them have seen the inside of the new house. We are going on 2 yrs. I know it is an embarrassment for my son to come visit his parents. Until they moved back to WY our 4 yr old granddaughter has never stepped foot into WY.   Since the wife left early for work. The puppy thinks he needs up early too, so up about half hour earlier than normal. Which maybe good as I (and maybe our youngest) am heading to a cars and coffee in Cheyenne this am. Even taking the wagon, which I was able to get the transmission fluid changed yesterday. god what a PITA that was.   Well off to see the wizard shortly. TOTO, where did I leave my gingham dress?   Hugs, Kymmie
    • Willow
      Good morning    @awkward-yet-sweet you’d be plenty warm at my den. Wife keeps the temp between 76 and 78.  If I turn on a ceiling fan I get “do you need that fan on?”  I sleep best in a cool room snuggled up.   have a great day. Hot here!  Oh I went all the way in the pool yesterday it was nice.   Willow
