I am not very good when it comes to provincial flags being a typical self centered, caffeine oriented, almost vegitarian west coaster but Barrie is Ontario, right?

I have only endless faqs sheets to console me until that time.

Hopefully you have some friends to distract you during your recovery.

Mine will be a basic orch so i anticipate some stuff but asking my friends for help has me climbing my hormonal walls.

Much Love

Rachel

Normally I busk at Granville Island on Saturdays but we had a big snowfall (for Vancouver) and I am just bustling at home right now.

Was the opp you had more of the 7 week downtime or the two day with reduced activity for 2 weeks type?

As Jani said it's wonderful you have support in the house and your parents is even better.

Mine is of the two week recovery type and a little ways away.

I just asked my elder mentor (both my parents are passed) if he could come over in the first 24 hours to hang with me and I was super happy that he is great with that. I figure this is something I should not do alone.

Welcome to The Other Side.  The tired and beat up feeling in the weeks immediately after surgery was not fun when it was my turn 5 years ago, but I found that I did feel measurably better each day while it lasted. Don't worry if it takes 6 months or so to get some of your feeling in the area sorted out, it will be worth the wait.

I think it's a modern miracle, making an innie from an outtie, congratulations Amanda. Walking is wonderful, a little at first, then more as time goes on.

 

Take good care, gentle hugs

      I hope that there is some kind of justice. It's very sad and it doesn't even mention the family and I could only imagine how they feel.

      It's kinda weird how these people are so worked up over making these laws.  They would have no effect on cis people either way.  Yet they are the ones with the obsession.  They ought to just stay out of trans people's business.

      Bean burritos are still popular in my family.   Black eyed peas are the one legume I'm not fond of.  I need to add lots of onions. And of course always cook your pintoes with fat-meat.  And for y'all yankees, navy beans with a big ol' ham bone are hard to beat.

      Seek out community, not just online but in person if possible. Making trans friends is a pretty quick and easy way to gauge if you have much in common with them.

      Glad to be home and did go out for a walk this morning.Good thing is that went good.Still taking it easy

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!
