I think we all need to keep doing things to build up ourselves and for me it will be practicing my hypnotherapy, enjoying my zoom gathering with my closest trans friends and sharing thoughts on TP.

How about you? Could it be shopping, getting with friends, gaming, telly?

doing some work around the house. went out for dinner on Friday, doing a little online clothes/shoes browsing and maybe buying. Hope to get outside for a walk tomorrow. Nothing too exciting.

I’m visiting a friend who I haven’t seen in a while on my way up North to visit my daughter her family this Sunday. We are having a ‘going away party’ for my SIL who will be deploying soon for six months. It’s going to be a beautiful sunny 75° F today so I’m sure we’ll have BBQ fired up while there.

Well, not much honestly, I haven't felt great lately. I'm watching a movie, hopefully a Star Wars one, with friends tonight on discord. Other than that I may just chill and play Stardew Valley on my Switch and watch shows. I should *probably* do the next chapter in the mindfulness self compassion workbook.

Sadly I am.unable to to do much for Breanna this weekend.  I spent the day moving large heavy lumber for a new deck I will be building soon. I broke 2 nails so fat and almost cried.  When I am done with the deck I WILL be getting a manicure.  for dinner I grilled some chicken.

 

Tomorrow I will be getting the retest of the wood needed.  Might end up coming out to a friend that will be visiting. 

 

I am in desperate need of a girls day.

Exercising. My knee seems to have recovered and I did a full set of weight training exercises today. Another scheduled for tomorrow, although it's arm day, so the knee gets a day off.

Well, I have had some strip steak marinating in a spicy bulgogi marinade for 72 hours and I will be making bulgogi jerky today.  Depending on how I feel, I may also dehydrate some sweet peppers that I got a great deal on ($1.00 for 2# of peppers we couldn't sell at the store because they had a little bruising on them).

Yesterday, I booked a vacation for just my wife and I to Seattle (first time for lots of things there!). After that we met up with a friend to play games together. Today, not sure what I am going to be doing, my wife works, so I might just be chilling out and chatting with people if I can.

Nothing.

 

This weekend has been all about doing the chores I didn't have time for during the week and supporting my extended family. There was a thing I was going to do with my friends, but nothing came of it so we called it off.

 

Today is going to be more of the same.

 

Hugs!

Well, poop.  I just posted what I am doing this weekend in the "coffee's on" thread.  Didn't see this one until after I had already posted there.  So anyway, I did stuff and have more stuff planned today.

The weekend is usually the busiest time for me. Check the car, sort essentials in the garden, visit my mother, have a family get together on Skype with my son and family, do the weekly shop then, after preparing and eating Sunday lunch, crashing out and relaxing lo. It doesn't vary much!

Hi All,

 

My default day or weekend or week these days is always the same.

I work, I repair my damaged apartment, I clean my apartment, I sort stuff,

I clean up. Then I do my work that I love.

But it's not always the best for my spirits so this week I've

pledged to say yes to everything social. That feels good.

And coming to GP is social. So thanks.

Hugs,
Davie

A bit about it is here:

Thanks for all the support,

This weekend I don't have much planned for me actually. We will be seeing a friend in need on Saturday and on Sunday I am seeing my dad prior to me house sitting for him while he goes off to San Antonio. Not sure how I feel about not setting time aside for me, except it is what it is.

I have no specific plans. I want to hit the gym Sunday morning and I need to go to the bank, but that's the beginning and end of it.

 

Maybe sleep in. Sleeping in would be nice.

 

An adult conversation would be good too. I need an adult. ?

 

Hugs!

Was planning on getting my shop tools moved over here on Saturday.   But they're calling for rain, so nope.  But I will drop by my daughter's for a bit.   One of my other daughters will be there (they were going to help with woman-handling the stuff) for a visit.

Outside of that, I'll just try to stay out of trouble.

Well I thought my friday dinner date with a friend would be a good start to the weekend but... I was my usual awkward self, talked weird, I dropped food on myself, spilled water on myself, and she talked about her amazing boyfriend a lot and now I am just sad. I looked in the mirror when I got home and just felt ugly, stuck, and stupid.

@Jackie C. sorry can't help with the adult part.

 

@AwesomeClaire I'm holding you in my thoughts. I understand so much about looking in the mirror and feeling sad. You are not alone sister.

      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

      Well it not morning and I haven’t been on her for a while but it’s nice to be back.  Did some catching up on everyone.  I do have a question, how is Toronto Canada for a get away? Is it a safe and friendly area for us to go.  The wife and I are looking for some where to go to allow me to be my true self.     thanks in advance

      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."
