Good Morning, on my 2nd cup, here at 3:25 am local, I could not sleep anymore. Music is in my head phones...

 

Dry cold windy weather, chinook winds are blowing here (out of the NE). Should be a beautiful clear day here....

 

Nothing new to report, just happy to be alive, well, and smiling....

 

Have a great day all

Luckily we have no snow but it was windy overnight. The tail of a storm! I have just had breakfast coffee and will go out for a look around after doing a little hand washing, before lunch. Have a lovely day :)

Yesterday I woke up and surprise! There was snow on the ground but not a lot. It’s still covering the ground but it may melt off in a few days. Until then the temperature dropped dramatically so I have been indoors trying to keep warm. Going to work early today is going to be frigid. Everyone have a wonderful day!

Good morning everyone 

 

Coffee and breakfast are done.  Getting ready to head out.

 

It got a little stormy last night.  We got an inch of rain, thunderstorms and we were under a tornado watch.  After that it got cold and windy.  

 

Have a a great day.

Went to the orthopedic Dr. today. Looks like surgery for this girl. They are going to put in a pin to keep the bones aligned. Dentist appointment is 8am on Wednesday.

Actually about 40 on the thermometer this AM. I agree it has been a weird winter. But It can be over. I am so through with it. Have a great day all.

Hi everyone,

 

Well weather wise it was a pretty nice day.  

 

Endochronologist appointment went ok. We discussed what I was hoping to get out of hrt and how my dysphoria affects me.  He was willing to prescribe but based on our conversation he wanted me to have a psychiatrist evail first.  That is as much ch for my wife as for me.   I have a follow up in June, and I’m waiting to hear from the psychiatrist he wants us to see.

I know that this is supposed to be a good morning coffee thread but I’m finally relaxing for the weekend starting tonight and I’m curled up with my orange creamsicle milk, hallmark channel, and a berry shandy to celebrate almost 2 months at my new job! Mmmm, orange creamsicle milk! I had no idea that it even existed!

Josie Beth It is a social thread. Something to talk about the day coming or have had. It's all good.

 

Well now to wait for surgery. it is on the 14th. right now the end of my left pinky is twice the normal size. It doesn't look like any damage to the nail. But I guess time will tell.

Good luck with the finger Kymmie. Sometimes it takes quite a while for any effect to show in a nail.

 

Today is sunnier again after the rain. It's about time to start work in the garden, but I am not enthusiastic :D I am glad I got to planting some garlick and broad beans before Christmas.

 

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Kymmie, I had my finger smashed about 3 months ago and last week the nail, which was firmly attached, apparently finally fell off and it’s growing back a new one. It’s probably going to be another month before I can have an almost full length nail to cover my finger. Then another two weeks before I can finally trim the nail. It looked like I had it painted black for a while. 

 

Today there’s supposed to be thunderstorms all day and the rain sounds absolutely soothing on the roof and windows! A good excuse to stay in and cat nap!

Congrats on 2 months Josie Beth !! you deserve some pampering !

 

Yesterday my wife told me I had bought "mom jeans", I did not know that term previously, so I just giggled when I heard that, and they so fitting. My mom jeans are these wide legged bell bottoms, that sit high on the waist, you learn something everyday ?

 

First cup of the morning, and it tastes wonderful.

 

Have a great day all

Gosh Cyndee i just looked down.....Mom Jeans!  Who knew.  

Now for a second cup with a smile. 

Saps still running so i'll be in the sugar house later.  It's been an awesome year for us.  24 kid goats have made it through (so far) and we have had a very good syrup season.

 

Hugs,

Haha! I call my work jeans mom jeans. I’ve always qualified mom jeans as jeans that don’t enhance your booty. Kind of looser fitting type jeans. They’re very comfy for the most part. ?

I guess I wear mom jeans. They certainly don’t enhance any curves. I need a belt to keep them from becoming hip huggers. I would rather be wearing something that fits. None of my pants fit quite right.

It was really windy today.  Went to the store and got some food. Wish I could shop healthier but every time I do we end up short on food for the month. I'm working on it though.  Waiting to see if we are responsible for paying for the bedbug treatment or not. If not or when we have it paid I will get a second freezer.  In the meantime, I plan to buy a crockpot next month.  I need to get some tupperware too. So I can make big meals and freeze them.  Can anyone recommend a cheap place to get some tupperware like containers that won't fall apart like grocery store ones?

I must admit we tend to use a lot of old ice cream tubs Jordy. We amassed quite a few when the kids were little.

 

At the moment I am looking at high waist jeans. The ones I currently wear fit at the hip, and fit well,  but I could do with a change of style from time to time. Not wide bottoms though. I prefer a close fit. Something I noticed when I was looking through a few sewing mags yesterday - Buy patterns to fit skirts to your hip size and, when making, adjust the waist. The article also quoted  the, not unusual, wide ranges of women's bodies (with similar variations for upper body and dress size). I can see we are not exceptional!

 

It's pouring with rain at the moment. I hope it stops by the time I get to the shops so I can have a look round.

Dollar tree has some but they are just the same as the ones in Walmart. Kind of disposable. Freezing anything plastic will make it brittle. Even the thicker more durable containers.

 

 It was very windy yesterday. All kinds of debris was hitting the house.

      Over here muttering about "a new Jim Crow against a persecuted minority."

      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
    • Ivy
      Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all.  Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable.  I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk.  So that "F" is lie, and a fraud.  My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good.   I'm just frustrated these days.  Just a bit of a rant.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      You probably remember the Target PR fiasco.  I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there.  She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again.

      Been a good day.Cleaned my closet of clothes that I do not wear anymore and do not fit me.It looks better now.Came down to my newest property beside mine,owner passed and I inherited it.There was a double wide there that was removed,it was in bad shape.It is the shop part I am keeping which I got the tools,shop equipment,benches,hoists and shelving too.

      Nothing about eradicating TG folk. 
    • Ivy
      If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me).  That seems suicidal.
    • Ivy
      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far... 
    • EasyE
      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.
