Happy Holidays to Everyone, and A merry New Year.

I got a new job. One that is not so tied into the stock market. I start this Monday. After Thanksgiving. I will be running UPS trailors to Omaha NE., for the next 3 weeks, after that I will be running Fresh and frozen Foods out to Ca. Tx. Id. Nv. Og. Ut. Az., (sorry if any of these 2 letter states are wrong.) bascily the West coast. I will be making a little bit more money, doing so, and when the boss is running the Harvist season. I will be totaly in charge of where I will run, how far I will go, when I get home. He dose not want me to be out more then 10 days. He only has 2 trucks, and is planning to buy one more in about 2 weeks. B)

The bad. My laptop is down and out for the moment. The Tip for my power supply broke, on my pug. :angry::(:banghead: Now I have to buy a new one from Tosiba.com, but if I want to have some entertament while out on the road. I need to spend a little money. The really bad is, all of my Maps, my log book, and everything else that I need is on my laptop. looks like I may just have to do everything the Hard way Untell the Power Supply comes in the mail. Hopefully I will be able to get some Photos here soon.

But anyway. Everyone Have a Safe Thanksgiving, A Merry Christmes, (as mush as I dont want to hear about that holiday, havent been shoping yet.) And A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, Amanda!

Well, that is wonderful news! A new job is always exciting to start and in your case you get to travel and have time to sit and think..(unless that's not your thing) ^_^

Sorry to hear about your computer :( I go into melt down mode if my computer is down for any reason.

You stay safe out there and drive carefully.

Hi,

is the power supply that big deal?

We in europa have adapters for the cigaret lighter of the car to the notebook. I can not belive that you do not have same stuff in USA. So take a look to the electronic store to find one of this adapters. This adapters has different plugs for different plugs.

If the plug is still inside of the notebook (without the cable) it is possible to remove it.

It look like this:

Adapter

Yes. I have been to a lot of computer stores They all have adaptors that will fit but they are anywhere from $150 to $200, I do not have that Kind of money right now. I do have a power converter in the truck that will allow me to use a home outlet for a cig. lighter.

I can spend $100 and have it overnight prioity to my house and it will be there on Monday or Tuesday. I have a adaptor but it dose not work. I am using it with the help of my mothers powercord. There is a little notch in the cord that is allowing to charge my bat.

Untell I get a new one then I am just out of luck.

Hey Amanda, be rilly careful pullin' them doubles, Babygirl. I pulled 'em for FedEx Ground and it's a bit of a diff. game, yu know? If ever your comin' up on a mean-donkey grade on bad winter roads, get nice n' slow by the point you hit that crest, apply some pad on 'er and keep it there LIGHTLY as you descend until your near the base. Doubles are just funky like that. I jackknifed up on Cabbage Hill in Oregon and I hate the thought of that happenin' to anyone else, especially if I had the opportunity to make even the slightest difference. Had I not managed to get that beast off in the happy direction and quickly off the road, I prob. wouldn't be sittin' here typin' atcha n' tellin' yu whatcha already know. Heehee! Anywho, coolness on the job score. Hope it works out well for yu. That's some rilly nice hometime you mentioned, you realize? Some truckers roll OTR for years before landin' a score like that. Lotz n' lotsa luck to yu.

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets.

      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      April sounds fun..I keep some boy jeans to visit mom in..fir now   hugs

      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.

      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I think the key to that is just not minding eating the same thing repeatedly. Since we produce a lot of our own food here, we end up eating what is in season at the moment. So, when the yellow squash is ripening, we end up fixing squash 20 different ways. When the strawberries are ready, we eat lots of strawberries. It's kind of a different mindset to eat in season when it has become such a part of American culture but the grocery store has everything we want all the time. Like grapes in December.  My family does even things out a little bit by having a greenhouse so we have some fresh things in the winter, but it's not a 100% fix.
