Davina's diary

[LizK]

Wow the food looks great Davina, nice score with the blouse too.

[Dan]

Yum! Nice going.

I agree with Laurie, you have a cool, "go with the flow" attitude.

[davina61]

I find ifyou do go with the flow things work out, I can sit and watch paint dry some times. Think if I had not been a mechanic (or born the correct gender?) then I would have been a cook/chef , similar jobs TBH sh*t hours and poor pay!!!

[DawnOday]

I love to cook too, always have. When I was young I thought of it as survival, as my mom could make it hard to tell meat from shoe leather. 

[davina61]

My wife thinks meat is cooked when its as brown on the inside as outer Made an Indonesian chicken and bean sprout soup tonight, had left over bean sprouts and chicken. Very tasty. Have 2 trainees at work this week, one male and one female so the boy askes why have you got your nails painted, oh came his reply after telling him. No problem, talking to our female tech about my nails and the girl joins in so no problem there either. Having "bad" moments seeing my reflection at the moment, just doesn't look like I feel, why is that old bald bloke looking at me. Just wearing my wig helps altering the shape of my face, will get there one day girls.

as my mom could make it hard to tell meat from shoe leather.

An uncle said my mother couldn't boil water, without burning it.

If you want to have fun, you can say it helps keep the grime from staining your nail and you decided to have a change of pace so you used colored nail polish instead of clear

We have a Blues festival on in Upton, all together My Dooooog is dead and the wifes run of with my bourbon . Probably not that bad but not my thing, anyway town is rammed and its chucking it down at times . Trying to get home the last 2 days have been a mare , almost ran some over as they just wander across the road without looking!!!!! All parking spaces gone and wanted to get some cash and shopping, managed the shopping as one shop has its own parking spaces.Its been a busy week and my right eye is playing up again, totally out of focus . I get cold sore virus attacks in it that have damaged the vison , scared lens and when I get over tiered or run down it has a go at coming back. Last time took 4 weeks to clear as doc thought it was just conjunctivitis and gave me antibiotic cream , cleared up better when stopped using it !!!! So a very busy day testing with one eye and a head ache from the other one so got in early and showered, body shave and 7 day creamed myself all over, light make up and threw on a skirt ect Davinas back and feeling much better now. Wanted a hand tomorrow to fit the side  panel to my van but no one can spare time, youngest is fishing  . Only need 15-20 mins to hold it in line while I clamp it in place , some joint are glued so cant risk getting it out. Therapy session over , having a beer XX

Hi Davina,

  Somehow your blues fest woes remind me of the drive up to visit Kendra yesterday. Saw some less intelligent driver come barreling past me and jam on the brakes attempting not to hit the slowed car in front of him in the other lane. He started to twist sideways before going with it into my lane and almost hit the car in front of me.  As soon as the first car moved a bit he jumped back into that lane then back into mine cutting off the car he almost hit. He continued is that manner until I lost sight of him.  Some  people not only lock intelligence but are frequently,  ummmm how do it put it ,excrement portals?

Sorry you could not get that bit of help but glad you had a chance to be more comfortable and be yourself.

Hugs,
   Laurie

Anyone see Shy around lately?

[davina61]

text my fem cousin to see if she was free, YES I have help She is a bit of a tom boy and likes doing stuff like this. As to wayward drivers every day going through the one way traffic system in Worcester, folks in wrong lanes or just trying to jump the queue changing lanes without signals 

[Kendra]

Before Laurie drives from Oregon to the UK we will have to remind her which side of the road is correct in your part of the world.  Something about islands. 

Glad your cousin can help while you weld.  Welding is a skill I never learned.

[coldHeart]

If you was desperate for help Davina should of given us a shout, I keep threatening to visit & play you up.

[davina61]

Thanks got it done , saw my mum and got some feedback from when I saw the wife last week. That was in Davina mode  less make up and wig, anyway it was OMG hes wearing a bra and girl clothes and jewellery . Her cousin was fine about it, thanks Julie XX . Just spent 3 hours cooking , a dahl , meatballs in sauce indian style, chapattis and carrot desert . That's a pain to do as it says 1.5 hrs to cook and reduce liquid but it takes 3!!! 1.5 pints of milk takes ages till its dry. Yet to try it but if its like the last one its very sweet.

[Kendra]

> its very sweet

Sweet like you Davina.  You cook.  You weld.  You rock. 

[davina61]

Well I braved it and tried some and its not to sweet just VERY sweet, but that's Indian deserts . Cooking's a hobby, welding's part of my job , both done correctly is a pleasure

   Don't get too chummy with Kendra, Davina or she have you over here in a raft on your back welding connections under her condo.

Hugs,

[davina61]

Yes never liked welding uphill, gravity rules!!!!!! Ouch another burn

[Kendra]

My place was built on a pier over a lake.  I need to modify the plumbing, doesn't require Davina-style welding but I will be soldering some pipes while sitting in an inflatable raft.  Tempting to cut and run the drains directly into... ok I'll do it the correct way.

[davina61]

Rang my pension company to send me a form to withdraw the small amount (in fund terms) that I have with them, transferred through 3 people and given the same "chanted" out information by all of them, got so pi55ed of that I snapped and said JUST SEND ME THE BL**DY FORM. Did apologise as I know the poor old call centre bods are only doing there job but FCS I do know what I want , I did read  your pamphlets and I want that form. Rant over .
Any way back to the plot, found my moobs are larger, nipples alert a lot and looking larger/darker around them . Low T ? as not on anything yet, put the change in shape to wearing a bra for the last 6 months. Bonus. Saying that I find the denim skirt is tighter going over my bum as well even though I have lost weight and now 36ins waist (from 42). Hope fully might mean HRT will do some good when I have the money, when that form comes!!!!!!

[Laurie]

Hi Davina,

  Did they say you'll get the form? Hope so. You are so ready to do hormones!!

Hugs Lots,
   Laurie
