Guest bronx

just found out from my cardioligist that I should back to be 100% by some time next year, I'll be 39. i'm happy. Now i'm able to walk on the treadmile for up to 10min. Three months ago I couldn't walk 2 blocks. And A year ago i couldn't get out of bed. I'm just grateful to wake up every day, Life is wonderful!

Congrats, Bronx.

I now have something I can post here. This was the first really warm day we had at a high of 64 degrees. I burned my way home to break out the saddle and horse and got back from a nice 45 minute ride after the sun went down. And my mare (who is bred - foal expected in late June) even did stuff for me she's never done before.

It doesn't get any better than this.

Dear Lizzy,

Congradulations!! To be sincerely referred to as a woman must have been so liberating and exciting! I am so happy for you!

Yep, Zabrak, I have a few horses. Actually, I think I can honestly say that I can train horses. I have had people ask me for riding lessons although everything I've learned has been by riding and training horses for cavalry.

And I did it again today. Went riding for an hour. What's really great is that my horse is actually trusting me more now than before. I don't know if it has to do with just because I hadn't ridden her (and ridden other horses) or something about my change or just because she just trusts me more. We've been doing cavalry for six years now.

Another good day to be on the back of a horse. (Oh, and women love horses.)

Ok Jackson, when you enlisted Squirt in your pursuit of the female form we "understood".

Now horses? :P

Stop while this is under control or Next thing you know you'll be cruisin late at night with a chicken sittin next to you in the pickup. (yep, you can hit me with the fish for that one if y'need to)

To quote Ryan Styles as Lewis on the Drew Carey Show, "Of course I'm scared of horses, they're great big animals with long faces and metal feet!"

I'm just allergic! :rolleyes:

I had an appointment with a doctor for the first time this century and a little longer ago. I decided to tell him about myself and he is still happy to have me as a patient and will handle all of the lab work for me but isn't sure what to look for so he will send it to another doctor and I can get started on my hormones, pretty soon - I have my appointment with my therapist Tuesday and I should be able to get the ball rolling! :D

Love ya,

Sally

Geez, Evan......

I'll have to rearrange my priorities!

I will take all the help I can get in the pursuit of female companionship. Especially when a really good friend told me, "If you own two horses, you'll never lack for female companionship."

I want to be a cowboy when I grow up. I have no idea when I'll grow up though. As I sit here and watch the pouring rain and think of the horses outside getting wet. They don't mind.

Sally, I have the horse for you. Hypoallergenic. They have curly hair.

Now I have something to be happy about! :)

Thank you Jackson, and with curly hair it must be a mare. (I have got to stop this rhyming thing!)

But more to the point, will there be biscuits for breakfast?

Love ya,

Smiling Sally

Biscuits for breakfast?

Of Course, biscuits for breakfast - Yankees use butter and jelly, but down here you cook up some sausage and you make gravy with the grease!

Uhmm, uhmmm, uhmm, biscuits and gravy another low cal, low fat way to start your day in the South!

I used to stay up to ridiculously late hours and make soup, the instant noodle kind. And sometimes I would fall asleep and the saucepan would scorch after the water had all boiled out. Thus was born Coffeepot Ramen, which would also make for a good band name.

My good thing in life: I went to visit my best friend, who lives about 400 miles away, for a week. During my stay, I had my first evening of dinner and conversation with him as Lydia. We've talked about my transgenderism quite a bit, but it was different to show rather than tell. And he told me, he had to remind himself that Lydia wasn't how I've always been, because it seemed so normal to him. Oh, that I may find others who agree with him!

I wish I could have had biscuits and gravy for breakfast, but sadly, I didn't have my Bisquick to make them. :o

So now I've run to the store. I've got my generic Bisquick. I'm all set for supper tonight or breakfast tomorrow morning.

Let me tell you how great it is to be out in the field (at an event) and have a couple friends make biscuits and gravy over the open fire. I've got the horses so I usually don't have time to help out with breakfast. Now that's the way to start the day.

What time is Supper?

My card, Sir.

Have Fork, Will Travel.

Wire Sally

(Old "Have Gun, Will Travel" reference)

A fast fork for hire reads the card of a woman, A knight without breakfast in a savage land.

(That has to be OK, I changed the words enough!)

By the way, Ham gravy is very good too and country gravy, and chicken gravy and brown gravy - any gravy!

Love ya,

Sally

Good observation, Mia. Thankfully bisquick biscuits and horse biscuits differ in color and smell. Otherwise we'd be in big trouble.

LOL Ok, we do have a cap on "cute" around here. And you definately just passed it. Wow. lol. If I can feel free to use this as your "verification" of femaleness based on "otherwise unthought of actions only a woman could come up with" you will be admitted to the species known as "female" lol.

      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>
    • Abigail Genevieve
      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.

      I still have not read much of this.  Very little of this document pertains to trans folk.  Some of the statements are more than problematic concerning trans folk.   It certainly was not written just to get us.   " those with gender dysphoria should be expelled from military service."  and "Reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military. Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service,"  https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-04.pdf are two lines out of hundreds if not thousands regarding the Department of Defense, targeting trans folk in an almost off-hand manner.    So if a fighter pilot, say, or a ship's captain, highly experienced and trained at enormous expense, is determined to be transgender (method unknown) the US loses someone badly needed due to the personnel shortage who is ready, willing and able to perform their duties.  Many trans folk have served well and transitioned later.  I don't think this point is well thought out.    A number of policy recommendations I would disagree with.  I am not sure there is a method to discuss those with the authors; I am attempting to find out.  I have good conservative creds.    They are fully intending to implement this, regardless of who the president is, as long as that president is conservative. It is not Trump centered.  I don't think he had anything to do with it.

      I wear a Delimira Mastectomy sleep bra with Vollence sleep rated breast forms. The form fit inside pockets so they don't touch your skin. I bought the bras on Amazon and found the forms on eBay. They were much less expensive than buying through the other sources.

      I wore an olive corduroy coverall dress with a navy blue shirt underneath. 
    • Ashley0616
      @LittleSamCongratulations on one of the biggest decisions. Looking forward to your progress. 
    • Ivy
      I don't wear a bra to bed.  The girls aren't big enough to need it, but still enough to appreciate.  Just a flannel nightgown suits me fine.
    • Ashley0616
      You're welcome. I'm here quite often if you need me.

      Yeah, that is the point.  And of course they can be proud of themselves for saving humanity.   Yeah.  That would be scary.  I'd find a bush somewhere like our GOP governor candidate recommends.  So far I've gotten away with the women's.  I've been told I pass better than I realize.  But it would only take one a55h0le.   This is all so stupid.  I mean, who gets off on hanging out in a bathroom?

      Oh yes. It was not fun cleaning it up but he is better.

      sound  nice ...I been using a sleep bra with soft forms from knitted knockers..send a donation if you use them..I just sent my preferred size etc..works ok..gives my chest break from silicone touching..   how far back should I look to see about the ones you're using from Susan?   hugs
