You look good, but you're not wrong. Some brighter colors would really pop on that outfit. Maybe a brighter blouse?

 

Hugs!

I was thinking the same thing.

Today was game day but a friend invited me over to her house before the game to join her in Garage-avitaville.  She has set up a lounge pool, projected a beach video onto a wall complete with the sounds of the ocean, some blow up palm trees and shrimp on the barbi.  It was 88 degrees so had to get in the pool ;). First time sporting a bathing suit with the new girls.  As you can see, I was in heaven.

Oh yeah, you HAD to. Show off. ?

 

It looks like you're having fun with your friends. I'm glad.

Yea, for the first time in my life I actually love my body and enjoy being able to dress (or lack there of sometimes) how I like.  I wasn't going to miss a chance to bikini it up and get some sunshine, even if it was only for an hour.  I've been fighting the "here comes winter" blues this last week as the temps plummeted around here.  This was probably the last opportunity to enjoy a hot sunny day for quite a while.  Hopefully I can get to an island in February.  I hadn't seen this friend since Covid started so it was nice to reconnect.  Susan was there as well.  We are working on the hanging out as friends thing.  We drive separately when we are both going to something and usually arrive and depart at different times based on our own schedules.

Well you DID just have a hurricane blow up your skirts. Temperatures are dropping up here too. I don't MIND because I'm hot-flashing every other minute, but Summer is definitely on the outs. I never did manage to get an opportunity to show off my new swimsuit this year. Maybe next year. My uncle is still going to need crew and I think I remember my way around the Interlake. I'll need to get some floaties for my glasses though: I can't see without them and they're too expensive to lose overboard.

 

I'm glad you got the time to share with your friends and I'm happy there wasn't any drama. You look happy in that picture and that warms my heart. Knock 'em dead!

 

Hugs!

Went golfing yesterday.

That's great Liz,

 

Was this the company outing you were going to attend, or have you found a new hobby?

Judging from the divots at the tee box. Some of the ladies are really smacking the ball.

 

Hope you had a wonderful time.

Bri2020,

You look great, and I'm so happy that you're loving your progress.

 

@Jackie C. The blue lumberjack is a very gay look, and I love it.

I'm leaning more towards the black and red plaid for my SheJack look this fall.

 

Hugs for everyone,

 

Mindy ??️‍⚧️?

Looks good JustineM,

I hope you had a great weekend.

This was a company event they hold every year. I tried to take up golfing after I attended one back in '02, It's just not my thing.

Thanks @Mmindy! I’m recovering from a cold so no makeup and hair is…well…. But the corset came in the mail and I had to try it on! 
That tattoo is about 70% done, still needs some background leaves and shading. It’s all of my kids from my two marriages in the design. I also have Tinkerbell on the other arm and calf, the classic and modern drawings. I’m going to get them finished but I’ve had other priorities the past few years?

My partner bought this dress but didn’t like how it fit so now it’s mine….all mine

 

I've gotten a couple of pieces like that. She's also gotten a couple of mine that didn't fit the way I liked.

 

I like that dress, but I think it needs a belt or a scarf or something around your waist.

 

Hugs!

I agree.  I can always tell when I'm wearing something that is "needs something" but I can never figure out what that something actually is. lol

I like the dress Liz

I have noticed that a scarf or sash can give the illusion of more waist than is there.

I'm jealous of you both.  My wife and I are very different sizes so we can't share clothing or shoes.? 

 

Probably just as well though, since we wear such different styles.

      Love it! This is great news. We need more of this to combat the excessive hate-filled rhetoric and misinformation. 👍

      The experience was the same for me @April Marie. I slept much deeper and I woke up each morning feeling so much more restful sleeping with forms solidly in place. For me, wearing breast forms at night started when before I was a teenager. I had no access up to modern breast forms and certainly no way to buy mastectomy bras back then. I wore a basic bra my mom had put in a donation box and two pairs of soft cotton socks. I have some crazy memories of things I did in my youth to combat my GD but regardless, these makeshift concoctions helped me work through it all.   All My Best, Susan R🌷

      Colorado isn't exactly a Republican place, and won't become one anytime soon.  I think those folks might be better off not spending their time playing Don Quixote.    We certainly have our share of California "refugees" moving into where I live, so I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Coloradans too.  I suspect the trend over the next few years will see the blue areas getting more blue and the red areas getting more red as anybody who can relocate tries to find a place where they fit better.   
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Well, at least it'll be a place some folks could choose.  Options are a good thing.

      My family would have gobbled that jar up in a minute or two.  When we do have pickled herring, its usually for Christmas.  I didn't grow up with that particular dish, but I grew up in a Greek family so I like just about any kind of fish if I can get it.  However, ocean fish and freshwater fish taste so different.  We usually have more catfish and tilapia to eat than anything else.    What I can't quite get used to is the tons of cabbage my GF insists on eating.  When you live with a Russian, there is always cabbage soup.  Always.  When I first moved in with her, breakfast was "shchi" for soup and either bread or "kasha" which is a bowl of boiled buckwheat with butter and salt.  Those dishes can be made in any number of ways, some are better than others.  In the winter, it can even be salty and sour like kraut.  Not exactly sauerkraut, but packed in tubs with vinegar and salt so it keeps partially for the winter.  But I drew the line when the cabbage soup included pieces of fried snake one day.  😆

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      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?
