Dear Katie and Davina:
I wished I lived closer to both of you girls...  I would consider showing up for dinner as often as you would permit me.
So, Katie... what is your signature meal that you make for guests from Alaska?
I like reading about the offering from Davina, but no picture?
Hugs,
Danielle

I know its "naughty" but have some small E patches left over so decided to add one on top of normal dose just to see if it makes me feel better/more energy. Have enough for 2 weeks .

[davina61]

Day off today, been a busy 2 nights as Hot Rod club Tues and open mic last night. Some one came to the meet that not seen in 40ish years (we raced ) and I would not know it was him . The slim grey and balding man with "bicker" beard looked nothing like the heavy built person I knew. He recognized me after Dodge reference saying you have changed a bit!! and got a big hug. Got complimented on my rhythm playing (his words) last night by a key board player that did a set. Very talented he is, played Dawes Riders on the Storm complete with effects and a jazz section  . Docs this morning to get my arse stabbed , went to see mum and then changed mind as was going to work on panel but the weather is cold and wet bordering on snow/sleet so came home and made a BIG batch of veg curry . Need to do some house work anyway as not had time/energy. In fact putting it off now posting this

"Dawes Riders on the Storm"? I think you meant: The Door's Riders on the Storm. I can't let you get my fave group wrong. Sorry

[davina61]

Sorry Laurie brain fade (suffering from work!!!) and add to that my dyslexic grey matter it luck any of my stuff makes sense (spell checker rules) . Crashing on sofa again with glass of red watching Britain's  got Talent followed by the final of the voice. Brain out TV------

[davina61]

Had a wonderful time last night at open mic , went to pick the bff up and she had crashed out so went on my own. All "done" up in my new tweed pattern skirt that's just above knee and my short sleeve white with black butterfly outlines pattern. Did a full on makeup as well and got lots of compliments. Also got a mention in FB in the list of performers (wash board and tambourine !) . Now having self raised my E patches I think its working, feeling better, sleeping better and the girls are responding. Need a cowboy bra (round them up and move them out) , have a blood test next Mon so will see whats happened then.

[davina61]

You know when I started this thread I said no dysphoria as such, well things have changed and I have to avoid  unwigged reflections. Also getting fed up waiting on the GIC, need to call them again.But then my cup 1/2 full keeps me going . Bed time good night folks XXXXX

[Katie Jade]

You are not alone dear friend. But we have to all be strong together and be a little more patient.
Bless and sleep well

Cowboy bra! I love it!!! [emoji1787]

[davina61]

Yup , my sense of humour keeps me going but saying that it was wearing thin today. Got to 2.30 and I told manager I was stopping for lunch whether there was a job on the board or what. Ended up with 20 mins of my 30 min break . Got to going home time and just picked my bag up to walk out and got can you retest this van. Lost it a bit!!!! Did do it and had to do headlamp alignment as well so that's 10 mins they owe me plus the 40 mins of break I never had or put it this way that's 50 mins of work I don't get paid. Now you can see why I get peed off . Still new manager starts tomorrow so will see what happens  . The girls have been extra tender today so hope its a spurt.

You are such a trooper!  Hang in there.  Your appointment date with GIC will arrive soon enough. I understand the workload is tough but as you obviously understand, you are in a customer service position and I'm sure customers have other choices of shops to utilize for their MOT test.  What could be better than having a talented woman working on their car!   Best of luck with the new manager.

Well its open mic tomorrow night so some fun to be had, just seen some sad news on FB as one of the Kitchen Island Band  has died. Was playing tambourine with them on Sunday and going to watch (and join in) this Sat night.

Everybody knows there are only three types of bras. The dictator that suppresses the masses. The salvation army that uplifts the masses and the yellow press that makes a mountain out of a molehill.

Yellow press for me, please.

Last night they did a tribute song (one that the Kitchen Island Band play) for the member that passed, we all joined in and finished with a large round of applause . Emotional or what !!! Rang the nail bar to see about having the acrylics removed next week and she fitted me in this afternoon. Did a nice plum metallic gel coat on them after, good place for a natter and cuppa!!! She likes my attitude , we talked thing trans and her assistant knows the lady I met that plays guitar as she has sung with her. Its a very musical area around here.
Started doing my diet seriously , 1 scrambled egg  and a small slice of toast for breakfast with a black coffee , corned beef and pickle sandwich for lunch with an apple, beef cooked in whole spices (2 serving spoonful's)  and tomato aubergine rice (2 heaped serving ) and some tinned peach slices for pud. That's about a 1/3 less than normal. 

[davina61]

Still here  been dragged out by the BFF the last 2 nights , charity open mic night (for a defibrillator) and then last night went to the pub I go to on Wed night to pay respects to the member of Kitchen Island Band that passed on Mon. The 3 other members were there , the 2 girls very tearful.  The band playing to replace them at very short notice are friends and 1 of them plays with the KIB some times. It was 1 am by the time I climbed into bed (yawn) but thoroughly enjoyed my self . Just something about live music, well any music as always have  tunes on. Its part of my soul . Late getting up today ,had to rush to get to BFF and put up 4 fence panels and posts so having some ME time now . Making fish pie in a moment for tea, have some salmon, sea bass and smoked haddock,  leaks and home made parsley sauce topped with sweet and "normal" potato mix . Shame I only have shower coz need a loooooonnnnnnnnnnggggg soak in a hot bath (with a glass of red!) just have to do with the red then------

[davina61]

Well its my 64th birthday today, Did get a text from my kids eventually! BFF came to me for tea but I wasn't good company as so tired and then my brain shuts down. Still we had a nice tea and she brought me some nice presents . A nice necklace , some dangly earrings   and a nice card with BIRTHDAY GIRL on the front. Hopefully my eldest will come to see me tomorrow night.
