In keeping with the accent, Scotch eggs be a rare treat here in Ameri-kay, but. Aye, an' the wee divils be made sich:

The first, ye take oop hen's aiggs an' bile until richt haaard they be. Shell 'em then ye must.

For the next, wrap yon aiggs in a bit o' sausages, then coat  the lot wi bread crumbs, d'ye ken?

The next, weel, aye, fry them or bake them until crisp, belike and whan a' 'tis done, serve 'em oop an' eat 'em.

Hi, it’s Tuesday night, 7th day since surgery.  I still hurt, especially if I stretch the skin. Try moving around without stretching that area.  
 

Petra Jane, I can’t tell you how many times I checked in over the weekend.  I guess we are all looking to hear from our friends.  Thanks for getting It fixed.  
 

ye wee eggs are not very desirable to me.  Nothing to do with your pictures I just don’t eat eggs or haggis.

 

Are you watching Jeopardy? Amy the champ is one of us.

I have a sore throat tonight after LaryngoChondroPlasty. There's a mouthful! I also now have a "smile in my throat", literally.

I'm the master of ceremonies for a conference I'm putting on Friday Night and Saturday morning, with 32 speakers. This should be interesting. I think I may wear a polo neck.

 

There was a cancellation today, and they offered to move my scheduled appointment from the middle of December to 6am this morning. Needless to say, it's been a long day! Maybe the muscles won't have to work as hard moving the larynx up now that it's not quite as big?!

I've found that covering the patches with a thin clear bandage material such as Tagamet or Opsite Flexifix (which I get on Amazon in 4" wide rolls) works well to keep patches from being chafed off by clothing.  I do round the corners so it doesn't have a place to roll over on itself.  

I'm using a 1 inch circular Dotti brand patch. I've never had a problem. Almost everyone I've talked to has complained about patches falling off. I do have to be careful not to put them on a wrinkly patch of skin though. Otherwise I have to peel them off, although the adhesive cleans right off. Anyone else using Dotti with adverse issues?

Good to hear you made it through successfully! Yes, Amy is amazing! I've watched a couple of episodes. As of tonight, she's a 10-time winner.

Woo-hoo, the Christmas lights are back!  My inner vandal enjoys breaking them. :devil:

Ah, don’t break the lights.  Enjoy them.

 

Today is laundry day.  Tomorrow Covid tests.  Friday we take the dog to the kennel.  She’s going to cry about being left.  Saturday it’s off to Florida and Sunday we cruise.  Looking forward to that.

 

we haven’t been on a cruise since we took Daphne on her last cruise in 2015. She got the Royal treatment but each day she got weaker.

 

guess we will see how this goes.

I've never had an issue with them staying on, just that they sometimes peel and roll upon themselves as I do enjoy wearing snug clothes.  I suppose if I was in to looser fitting slacks or skirts it wouldn't be an issue.

I also like the therapeutic relief my inner vandal gets from breaking every one of them.

 

Go Christmas Lights!

Went to a doctor's exam today. Went fine except for this misunderstanding I had to comment on:

"I really appreciate your sensitivity to my new name, but it does NOT mean a Mammography is overdue for me."

Really? Because I'm overdue (and not looking forward to) mine.

 

Hugs!

I never heard of a male getting tested for that, but maybe we do too. If I was taking HRT hormones, I would think it would make sense. I'll take it seriously now and ask my doctor about it. Can't hurt to learn about it. (I did enjoy the laugh, however.)

My GYN had me get one. No big deal. And I  might be an A cup if I am lucky. Hey, girls get them and I am a girl. Remember that men can get breast cancer too. A friend of mine hates it when  people call it a female only disease.

I will have been on HRT for five years in January.  Time for me to meet the boob-squishing machine.

Scotch eggs be the bomb. I roll them in oats and bake. If you are being traditional you would fry them. 

 

Well, I am all moved into my apartment. I had a girl friend come over the first night and made her dinner. She kept me distracted and did a little unpacking with me. It was rather nice to have someone here my first night by myself.  It is really an adjustment. 55 years on this earth and while I've spent nights on my own, I've never lived on my own.  I always knew I was an extravert but this really hammers it home. I am just so used to having some human around pretty much all the time. The quiet is deafening.

Made a call to scheduled a consult for top surgery on Tuesday. I know it's only Thursday morning but the wait for a call back is driving me crazy. Also still waiting for the letter from my therapist. She said she would get it to me by next Friday.  Part of me wants to say I'm being impatient and I probably am. I can't help the feeling of urgency to start moving forward again.

      So an update from me.   Had my endo appointment last night. Went very well and they are sending 3 months supply of estrogen (estradoil patches) and the anti-androgens whilst my Dr gets a shared care agreement sorted out. So happy, should start HRT tomorrow!! Cost for the 3 month supply is £70 total for me, so not too bad. Not told my parents about this yet, but them being in spain, not sure they need to know yet.   Can't wait to start, just got to think about where to put the patches now and wait for the changes...

      Good Morning    well it’s Friday for most, pay day for some.  For me it’s pay day but not Friday.  I work the same opening shift tomorrow.  I typically have Friday on Saturday and Monday on Tuesday.     @KymmieL it does sound like your shop has an issue and you are smack in the thick of it.  The new gal or guy often is.  We have an issue with new people not getting fully trained before being turned loose on customers.  Some struggle through it and some quit because of it.  I try to get them working with customers as quickly as I can but I stay right with them observing, helping, even jumping in when things are getting backed up to keep the stress down.  Not everything comes up during training so when things do, even later after trying is done, I try to help and explain.  Our ASM feels that once she has you scanning barcodes and taking money she is done training.  Generally, refuses to train me on things that she does, and questions why I’m doing something that she normally handles when I’ve been told to do it as part of my advancement training.     She and the cashier involved both keep trying to toss the manager under the bus over a hours of work issue and shifts.  I tell her I realize her issues and I’ll work what ever she needs.  Because of that I tend to get a better more consistent schedule.   Well, time to say Happy Trails to you, until we meet again.   Hi ho Silver, away   Willow

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."
