Well, I’m in the waiting room having coffee and just completed all the digital paperwork. Met lots of other people like myself. Great experience so far. Will be with him (Dr. Stiller) shortly?

It's terribly hot today here in Georgia.I had to go to pick up some of my medication and trust you me, I was melting. The face mask was making my glasses fogged up, I could hardly see (poor me), sweat galore all over my face and my bras. All my no make up makeup melted and I looked at the car's window to see that my lipstick was all smeared with the mask.

So ladies, do not wear a lipstick (yes mine was also red) with a mask, not a good look if you sweat.

 

I am back home now, imprisoned in my room and enjoying my cup of tea while I read your posts.

Good afternoon everyone 

 

today has been a relaxing busy day.  After coffee I met with a good friend and made arrangements to see him again this afternoon and he is going to help me tomorrow morning.  I am going to see about moving my boat to a less expensive marina. He manages both of them.  The upside to the one I’m leaving is I can walk to it.  Downside it on the high end of the cost and it’s right on the ICW so there is a lot of current and a lot of rough wakes.  Upside of the new one is the cost and it’s not directly on the ICW so no current and no wakes.  The down side is the entrance is shallow and I could easily run aground.  Tomorrow morning is a check to ensure I can get in and therefore out by watching the tides.  My boat has a deep keel and needs just under 6 feet of water.  My remaining alternative is to just anchor in the waterway. Up side, no cost, downside wakes and getting to and from the boat.  Oh well.  No one ever said boat ownership was free.

It is a big day for me. Going into the city in about 10 minutes.  I will be meeting with an image consultant.  Then early this afternoon will be seeing a new psychiatrist for the first time so I can start arranging for my bottom surgery hopefully sometime next year.

Try washing your glasses gently with some dish soap. This leaves a clear film that prevents the fogging from occurring.

Thanks Dinaki

Just got back home and made myself a coffee, it is 3:40 in the afternoon.

How is everybody

I've had a good day, Carrie.  I just finished writing about it in my blog.  How about you?  It's after 11 here on the U.S. Pacific coast; almost time for bed.  Contemplating one more toke and a half a cigg before bed.  I'm trying to wean off the ciggs for good.  You would think if a person only smokes 5 a day, might as well quit, eh?  Not that easy; they're my friend when I need a break.  I'm pretty resolved on it now though.  Don't want to smoke and take E together.  I'm giving myself until my B-day.

Hi Tori

Sorry was talking to my dad to give him the news from today which was fantastic.

Hit Tori

Glad you had a good day!   I know how hard it is to stop I have smoked since primary school.  You can smoke on the medication but it is not recommended though I always have.  My doctor told me at the beginning to had half an aspirin if I was going to smoke because it would help to stop the blood from thickening too much.

I saw my psychiatrist for the first time to day and he told me I would not be seeing him again. 

While that may sound bad it was wonderful.  He wrote me a letter of support form SRS surgery.  He said many of the doctors in Thailand know him so it is a great step.  LOL I just need to find a doctor now! ? ?

With lots of love

Carrie

I went into the city today this picture is of my in front of the Queen Victoria Building which is in the centre of the city and is very old as you might guess from the picture.  This was just before I met with my image consultant which went terribly well. ?

The other picture is of my at my local chess club.

Carrie, sounds like your trip was a good one.

 

Willow, I hope that the new marina works out well for you and your boat.

 

Tori, At 5 a day is it really worth it? When my wife quit she went cold turkey. She was about a pack a day. One day she just told me to hide her cigarettes. it has been over 30yrs. 

Well there is a slight change of plans for this weekend. Instead of my wife going to pick up my grandsons, my middle son is going to bring them here. (We think he wants to get out of the heat a little) mid 90s there low-mid 80s here. Which is good as I want to talk to him about my possible move.

Hi, the new marina is a little tricky to get up the creek but as long as you watch the depth, it will work just fine.

If you run aground, at least you're not up the creek! ?

That's how I did it on my 3rd try. Tried gum and patches first. It was not easy, but almost 20 years smoke free now.

 

Hope all of you in the USA have a wonderful Independence Day!

Hi everyone! 
 

Been awhile since I’ve been on this site. Life is going ok right now. If ok is your stuck in the middle of a CPS case and rent is going up? I’m actually trying to curb my caffeine intake. Not easy for this girl! 
 

Recently I purchased some gold, black, and pink nail polish. I’m wearing the gold right now. Big step from just the clear I’ve only used. 
 

Working at home still but maybe other job (retail) will be opening soon. I guess will be cleaning and doing other things when I come back. Wearing masks and gloves. I actually get anxiety wearing the masks. Anyone else with me on that? 
 

So 2 of my children are now on depression meds. I hope this helps. Poor babies ? I love them all so much and never wanted them to have to face what their facing. I would of stayed in the marriage and worked it out but she didn’t want to. I don’t know if the divorce is the whole reason for the depression though. 
 

I see my kids tomorrow from 10 to 4. I asked for later but ex wouldn’t agree. Those are holiday hours. Hope you all are doing well and have a wonderful 4th! 
 

Love and kisses ?

 

Tessa

      Well said.    Although this so-called Project 2025 will not affect me directly in an immediate sense, it sends a signal to equivalent minded people and political parties around the world that it is okay to exclude minorities and indeed, to persecute them.   In my humble opinion, the far-right politicians know damn well that there is a very large cohort of less-than-intelligent people out there who are not capable of critical thinking and believe every skerrick of dog-whistling, fearmongering, "they're-out-there-to-get-you" rhetoric. Pander to their rural and village attitudes and you're on a winner!    Correcting them with logic and science won't work; they just double down and get louder with their petulance on full display.

      Just waking up so I'm in my pajamas - blue/white madras shorts, a navy blue t-shirt and my sleep bra with sleep-rated breast forms.   Thank you @Susan R for telling us about your mastectomy bra and forms fitting experience before your BA surgery and how sleeping in the bra/forms helped with the dysphoria.    First, hearing about your courage to get fitted gave me the confidence and courage to go out in public.   And, second, finding sleep mastectomy bras and sleep-rated breast forms (I found a set on eBay for a good price) has been a tremendous boost to my feeling comfortable in my pajamas and nightgowns and tamping down my dysphoria and dysmorphia.

      Germany has more castles than there are McDonald's in the United States. Yep, you heard that right. Germany is estimated to have 25,000 castles, and there are around 13,000 McDonald's locations in America.   In Washington state, there's a real-life law stating it's illegal to kill bigfoot and other sasquatch-like creatures.

      DREAD f you’re anticipating something positive, you’re probably motivated to summon all your patience to wait for it—and sometimes for extended time periods. It may be counter-intuitive, yet in certain instances such waiting can itself be gratifying. Consider Carly Simon’s song “Anticipation,” the old Heinz ketchup ads, and—especially—recent research pointing in the opposite direction as regards awaiting something highly aversive. In this post I won’t be reviewing ketchup commercials, but I will be exploring some intriguing research on dread-infused anticipation.

      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.
