Afternoon all, Just got home from my quick trip to MI. We actually made it quick ourselves. With the heat we decided to come home. We went to the long way home. Went through the UP. down the green bay over to Appleton then through Lacross stopped in Lincoln again with our oldest. Left this morning just before 7 and arrived home a little after one.

 

Actually got correct gendered last Thursday. We left my sons in Lincoln early. (Before getting trapped by our grandson) After putting up with nightmare traffic in Chicago. We knew it was going to be late getting in to the wife's fathers. So we stopped at a Baymont Hotel in Portage, MI. It was still early enough to hit the pool. So we changed into our swim suits. Me in my one piece with matching shorts. and a t-shirt.

We got in the pool, there was a couple young girls 9-11. They where wanting to race. Ones mom said, You two stay on this side let these ladies have the other side. ? one of the girls corrected her. She apologized a few times saying with the hair(long) and looked like I had boobs. ? ?. I didn't say a thing, I winked at my wife. It felt good.

Didn't sleep at all last night, new meds (Argh).  At sunrise made coffee and had a small breakfast, read some news and laid down to give it a try.  I was able to catch a couple hours so I'm refreshed (like a daisy, Ha).  Off to run errands soon.

Good morning! About to start my second cup o coffee. It is a comfortable 70 degrees blue sky, for now. I’m in the east county, so the temperature will climb up to 93 degrees later in the day. But I will not be here when it reaches 93, I will be at my place where it will be around 84 later in the day. At that point I will probably head back here and crank the A/C, ?

Im hanging out here a bit longer ,because I have an Amazon Fire Stick being shipped here, and it  is out for delivery. I had some tea and thongs arrive yesterday, one day delivery, I love that about amazon! I love the tea and thongs, but the peppermint tea is a bit pepperminty, so I think I will get the Spearmint tea next time. The thongs feel great, and I like the color assortment . Even tho I got a pack of 10, great price on amazon, I am already planning to buy more that I had been wanting to buy a while ago. I wanted to see how my thongs fit after everything settled down after my Orchie. I will be waiting for my cup size to increase before I buy a new bra, for now my nipples and buds are taking shape, but my breast size hasn’t increased  enough for me to buy a new bra yet. I’m ok with that since there’s is activity, and every little bit counts! ?

Evening all. just got home from my first Sunday close in forever it seems. Had dinner and now playing on here.

I have noticed that I am loosing weight. Lately I have worn a bra daily. Just being the girl I am. On Fri I wore one that I picked up a few years ago. It has always been tight on my until I wore it Friday. It fit comfortable. I have noticed that some previously tight cloths fitting better. Yeah.

Good morning.  Working my first cup and eating my oatmeal and blueberries.  it's a bit cooler here today.  Yesterday we got an early start working with the goat herd.  It got pretty hot by the time when we were done.  Today i'm hoping to either take down a couple of dead ash trees for firewood and or get the next load of hay in the barn.  Living on this farm keeps this gal busy.  Now for another cup

 

Hugs,

Just had my breakfast, usual cereals (with added seeds and spices) and coffee. It is a bit fresher here now than it was at the weekend. It hasn't been the heat that has been the issue though. A bit of a plague of flies on Sunday. That's the problem of heat and humidity in a place so green as it is at the moment. I can usually keep pace with the house so fresh and clean that they are not attracted in but sometimes!!! As the sun is out I will go out and get some exercise.

Living on a farm with livestock we are not strangers to flies but screens and a well used flyswatter keeps the buzz at bay.  The occasional posker does bug us until my wife's service dog catches the bit of flying protein.  

I'm off today to bring home a couple of does to replace some we are culling this weekend.  Next weekend is the Eid El Adha.  That is a Muslim holliday celebrating Abraham's sacrifice of Issac.  Some of our animals will be sacrificed on the farm.  It is a sad time in some ways.  We are vegetarians but others do eat meat and these animals are treated with respect and kindness throughout their lives which is unfortunately not common with most meat animals.

Need a second cuppa.

 

Hugs,

Good morning, afternoon and evening! On my second cup, and watching NYPD Blue. Used the weed wacker mowed and used the leaf blower early this morning before the plumber came over to look at one of the shower drains. Plus i was trying to beat the heat ??. After the plumber I took the Mazda to Discount tire to have the air pressure checked, they do it for free, all low, ooops. Then I drove back and forth three times to a local car wash to make all the cars shiny. Then finally breakfast. The best part about breakfast, is that’s when I take my Lady Meds. It is a guava year to put me in a great mood no matter how busy I get or hot it might be outside.

Good Morning all!  On my second cup of coffee, but need to jump in the shower, to go visit my mom who was moved from the hospital to a rehab facility.  Last week, she had fallen, and couldn't get up.  The hospital stabilized her fluids and got her on stuff to deal with an infection.    She will probably only be in rehab for a few days, before they send her home, and her house is in terrible shape.   

On Monday, I flew up to Massachusetts, to help out and get her house ready for her to go home, and hopefully get the process started for her moving into a retirement community.  

Sorry for the rambling post, but a lot going on in my head right now.

Sorry to hear about your mom, but good to hear she is progressing well. My mom had the same thing happen to her several years ago. And again several months ago. She does need to think about a retirement home as well. I hope all goes well with you and your mom.

Sorry to hear about your Mom Laura.  I was fortunate to be able to be with both my parents until they died.  They lived in the house i grew up in and we had built a house nearby on the farm. Even so helping Dad get from the hospital to home was difficult but at the same time the time was rewarding as i look back now.

Hopefully everything will go smoothly for you.

 

Hugs,

Debra I'm sorry to here this.  Since it is early the treatment shouldn't be too bad.  My partner had it.  A quick surgery, chemo for bit then a few radiation sessions. She's well.  I had cancer too.

With any luck you should be fine.  Please keep us informed.  We're here to help as we can.

      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?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Been taking it real easy.Another good neighbor of mine and his 15 year old son came over and cut down a couple dead trees on my property.Knew not to do it taking it easy.I had them put the wood near my fire pit in the back yard.Did it and happy where they put it.They knew I had stents put in and needed to take it easy

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one. 
    • Ivy
      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets. 
    • missyjo
      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      April sounds fun..I keep some boy jeans to visit mom in..fir now   hugs

      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
