I'm not questioning your intent Shawn and I'm treating it as a joke fallen flat, but yeah, the "put that cookie down" thing feels a little mean.  The current context it's in just ruins it.

  Sorry, i fixed it , now it should be more appropriate.

Much better!

I was told by my therapist today, that she will write a note recommending low dose treatment. Finally the thing I want most in the world is about to start. I actually trembled with joy when she said it. I'm 44.

Awesome Samantha!

The magnitude hit me once I had the pills in my possession.  Seemed unreal until then.

I'm going in on Monday now that I've gotten the Low Dose restriction taken off.  Hopefully before long I won't have to play guessing games anymore if the HRT is causing physical change:  "Is that the HRT?  Or am I just cold?  Or is that from the moisturizer I'm using?"

So how has life been with those cookies so far? 

Real good.  Just frustration of not knowing if any physical differences I'm seeing are all in my head.  My breasts don't hurt, but my nipples maybe look different??? That could also just be the cold.  My skin might be different, or I'm moisturizing well.

At least I got the mental benefit right away.  I haven't been real angry in months.  I can sleep again too.  I was so stressed out before, it was getting really difficult to get some ZZZZzzzzzzssss.
