That's awesome. Good for you. Here's to a new chapter, new work, and to long who you are becoming. 

Didn't know you were a motorsports fan. I've been debating on getting the F1 TV app. Never get to catch it when it is aired.

Thanks, Mash ....

I was incredibly busy. The previous two weeks I had put in nine 12+ hour days. Normally it was posting 4-11 articles a day. It wouldn't have been so bad if my boss didn't talk to me like a dog. Constantly talking down to me, belittling me like I was his bitch. Raging outbursts over the simplest things. I took it for a couple of months, asking him to stop. It only escalated over & over until I had had enough. It wasn't worth it. I wasn't even making anywhere near minimum wage. As much as I loved it, I'm not a whipping boy.

CM213 .... Thank you, but I'm more of a beer and boiled peanuts type of guy vs. the wine and cheese crowd. Ricky Bobby vs Jean Girard lol. I'm just kidding, of course. I've been a NASCAR fan ever since I was a kid. Hell, I used to live about 15 miles away from Richard Petty.

Stevenator that's too funny. I am more of a road course, road racing person, so F1, lemans, and Indy appeal to me. Nascar is great and all but and I guess I will say it, it could use more than just a one directional turning course that's not a giant oval or circle. Lol Granted I know it's not supposed to be as technical as F1 driving, but it definitely is a skill to drive 200 plus mph constantly for hours inches away from the next racer... In the end I think we like the racing but want to see an accident lol one that doesn't hurt anyone but causes a big spectical. 

That's pretty cool about Richard Petty

If you like road courses, then you're in luck! NASCAR runs at Circuit of the Americas, Sonoma Raceway, Chicago Street Race, Watkins Glen and Road America, too!! It's not all left-hand turns!

The Indy Race at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham was cool. That place is beautiful!

[CM213]

That's awesome. I guess I was pretty ignorant of what Nascar races were. Like you said I was with most of the population that thought it was just another left turn. Lol. Those road courses are amazing. 

I'm a gamer , and I typically only play grand Turismo or Forza race simulators. I those those courses. Road America and leguna seca, and spa are prob my favs. 

I'd love to take my 72 Camaro on a track one day but it's by no means race worthy. Lol

I haven't done a photo update in a while, mainly because I've been so busy the last few months and there's not much worth seeing here lol. They might not look like much and they ain't pretty, but they're mine and they feel amazing. I love them.

I've been off progesterone for too many months and I honestly think I've deflated a bit. That, and my daily dose of Estogel was probably too little, too. I did feel a resurgence in size once I upped my 17b, but I'm still looking forward to being back on P4.

Other than that, I'm looking forward to getting a couple of new bras for the beach next month. I really need new panties too, as these are showing their age. I got to thinking this morning that it's been at least nine years since I've work men's underwear. While my current lot isn't that old lol, I think it's kind of cool that it's been that long.

Also I haven't owned a pair of men's summer shorts in four years, and just thinking about wearing men's pants sends me into a dysphoria spiral of sorts. I have to swallow hard in cooler weather when I venture out in public in men's pants, to be honest. I (unfortunately) retired early, but at least that allowed me to be 24/7/365 in skirts around the house. I've worn a skirt every single day of the year, except in times of extreme cold, since 2012. My tops are pretty much generic and androgynous, but it's important that they're women's as it's so much more soothing to the mind knowing I'm not wearing a men's clothing item.

Lately I've been in-tuned to my legs, of all things. Ever since the beginning of NBE I've wanted mom-thighs, complete with saddle bags. It does seem that the longer I'm on estrogen, they're slowly packing on the pounds. Let's hope that continues.

One weird thing I've notice about myself after being on HRT for four years, and eight total years of NBE/HRT, is how utterly intimidated I am now around high-test men. I wonder if any other long term HRT users have noticed this, too?

I'll still stand my ground if push comes to shove, and I won't take any shit off of anyone, but I don't have the same "as one with the boys" feelings that I used to.

Anyway ......

Wow, your breasts are amzing! 

Your experiences with progesterone are interesting. I used a progesterone cream for two weeks, but stopped again because my libido increased enormously and my penis got bigger, which I didn't want. My breast size hadn't changed in that short time, but I had the feeling that my breasts were getting a little fuller.

[CM213]

Yes I second that. You're breast are amazing. Maybe one day I'll have the success that you have had, and will continue to have.

[Stevenator_]

Nadi ....

Thank you very much! I wish I had your fashion sense of style and the gumption to go public like you do with ease! Around here it's definitely not possible, but maybe one day if I ever visit the big city, haha.

As far as Progesterone is concerned, Lotus has written about this many times and it's definitely worth it in the long run. Just take a look at my photos from 3-6 months ago and you can definitely tell a difference vs now.

I also have noticed a boost in libido so to speak when first starting or restarting progesterone after a break. In my case that effect quickly diminished, and all other benefits were directed towards my breasts.

I'm unsure the method of estrogen that you're on, but I'm using Estogel and it's best administered on the scrotum. As you can see by the hips & thighs photo I added to my previous post, the bulge that is visible are my testicle, as the penis is almost non-existent these days. It is of my opinion that progesterone is well worth it in the end.

I enjoy seeing you posting here as you certainly are an inspiration to many and I'm very glad that you're an active member of this board!

CM213 - Thank you very much. While I appreciate your compliment, my life would be much more fulfilling if I had half the success of Lotus and Lara !lol

I'll just say stick with it. I started NBE 8.5 years ago and next month will be four years on HRT. If I could start over and do it all again, # 1 I'd start sooner and # 2, I'd have started with HRT instead of PM.

It's a slow and steady game ....

[Stevenator_]

I'm a month away from my four year anniversary of HRT. 34 days to be exact. No real reason to post other than I've been in a good mood today. I'm still several months away from re-starting P4, but it is still in the plans.

Photos are of me being silly and loving my daily uniform, so to speak. I have zero fashion sense and all the women's clothes I own minus my skirts, are on the androgynous side. I'll go out in my yard like this or in my hiking kilt that looks more like a thin unpleated skirt than anything, but I guess I'm still in the scared to be outed phase myself, too.

To be honest, I'm really surprised that my body hasn't betrayed me. While my tits aren't near as big as I wish they were, there's no mistaking my big butt. I definitely have female haunches now. Maybe it's because I haven't shaped my eyebrows lol (?).

I have worn my hiking kilt in public before a few times. Once I got called a faggot and another a guy started preaching religion to me. Both those run-ins happened at the beach, so go figure. I'm honestly more comfortable in public in women's shorts and casual androgynous tops. Bra & panties, unisex mules, no one bats an eye and I'm happy. Yet if I wear a kilt than can pass for khaki shorts if you don't look too close, it fucks with people's brains.

It always has bugged me that other people are so willing to interject themselves into complete strangers lives over how the other person chooses to live THEIR Own Life .... I'm all of a sudden reminded of the Hank Jr. song, Mind your own business.

Anyway, I hope that everyone is doing well and having a great day.
