I've had shitty lows but I can dig out
other peoples issues are not mine I have learned
I can walk away and have and will continue
love and let go
I do feel for people who can't "get over it" whatever the it is that eats away at you
over coming shit is super hard and when you can win that's awesome
I do feel for people who cant get over that hump it's not easy
Kids these days. Sheesh.
But no, really, I empathize. I steer clear of the medical industry as much as I reasonably can, so despite low times, I don't get tested. I just try and do stuff. Plant trees, bike an hour a day, stack wood, garden veggies and flowers, down trees and buck them up. Hew the dreamshack. Cook, clean, help with the inlaws slide into the end. Keep moving.
I do think it's harder than before, maybe because I have the luxury or lack of hormones to stop and think about the flows. Loss happens. Joy becomes more elusive. Inspiration becomes less frequent and more work. Kids moving out; they were a big part of the day to day motivation and that transition is pensive. Isolation is a much more boring drinking buddy, so I don't consume as much as I used to. Most importantly, my skiing has slowed and I'm way, way more cautious.
All that history of the raging days fell away somehow. I guess it's part of the process and I just yank myself up more often and plunk along.
I respect what folks go through in the lows; I'm not going to trivialize your experiences. Here's a hand, we're all in this together.
Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time.Quote:

conversationally,
I am finding Joy in things I did not used to notice ( or perhaps took for granted )
- the Color in Nature ( the upper midwest has become startlingly Green! I do not believe this is new, I am just seeing it - and appreciating it. )
- daybreak. Any day --
- a brilliant sunset ! ( without cloud cover, many are )
- breathing, with ease.
I have been Sick for most of the Spring
( and the pulmonary edema in CO in May ) ;
- A nice piece of fruit. berries ( I Wish I had a raspberry patch... )
The companionship of my dogs. fknA.
roll On, my friends

I approve this reference.Quote:

But I'm still curious what my levels are, at age 40 my T was quite high naturally.Quote:

Needles and injection sites have changed too.
Subcutaneous injections 2 times a week with a 31g 5/16 pin using lower doses bring stability.
Shoulders,stomach ,glutes ,quads etc.
No scarring or pain.
Look into it again.
Test and insulin pins are rather inexpensive now.
You do need bloodwork every "3" months where I am at and a prescription.
TRT clinics are online now too if you wanted to start asap.
No alcohol or physchoactive drugs,clean eating, gym every day ?
We get one body here.
Make it the best body you possibly can.
^^^^ the cream was so expensive. But so easy. Shit shower shave, rub pot roast all over my chest to be an excitable boy.
I’m not afraid of needles. Though it was a hassle.
I have heard of compounding labs that do creams more inexpensively
Never taken a boner pill. That’s working fine. It’s just the energy I used to have as a younger man for work and sports.

Just a post to say I hope your recent health issues are improving and you’re feeling some increased optimism about your future.
Your seemingly ever positive attitude will serve you well through this.
Thank you, b.mac -
breathing is helpful ;
Not being able to breathe is tiring.
goals help -
A river late next month ( a river I have Good history with. . . ) ;
"two runs" in CO next March, on my way to montana -
( LostTrail, Blacktail, (Big mountain) ;
Maybe Great Divide , maybe Maverick ;
Maybe Red Lodge )
Prematurely aged.
A word of encouragement -
Get healthy by your forties(,) And
Protect your health. !
take care of your teeth --
the cliche's apply -
If I knew I would live this long,
I Should have taken better care of m'self... (myself... )
and, ,,, oh -
I have a good life, that I have not appreciated enough.
Roll ON! magg.s !
Thank you, b.mac ! !
skiJ
hey, magg.s -
at the risk of trying to hijack Buzz's thread ( - but I do think this thread is, ,,, Good - ),
I believe I will head west by Tuesday -
I have "double-J" hospitalized with complications from her future, former, appendix
( at-least a five-day hospitalization Before Surgery. . . )
I would leave Today, but there is an appointment on Tuesday(,) I have been waiting for (for) three Years
( yes, three years -- )
we 'll see what today's update is
( I also need to get a new squeak on the cherokee checked ? )
IF I get this right, I will take the thermoflex oven and the 1080s, and return through Jackson and Durango. . .
But first, J's health, and
Holly's appointment --
I re-read the first eight pages this morning -
My Thanks! to all who reached-out, And To Buzz- for starting this thread...
my contribution this morning(,) IS,
When Depression ( or call it whatever. Depression seems to be the current Medical word. )
... when Depression starts to rise,
Be Positive - Do some thing for someone else - for your neighborhood -
for me, it is hard-er to feel Bad, if / when I am do-ing for others
( mow and shovel for the elderly ; pick-up a bag-full of garbage ( god., it's everywhere )
( Disclaimer. ' ymmv' )
plus(,) I have the dogs. Great dogs --
I could not live without them.
( last month, when I went to pick them up, Jack straight-lined for his 'car kennel' ;
And "the pups" - that will be Nine-years old this year -
... the pups picked-up our Routine like I had never been gone !
no matter how Bad I feel,
I am proud of my great dogs.
( Thank you, 'Blue' (2016). and 'Lady' (1997), Too (!) )
so. westbound next week -
my Apologies for ,,, my diary entry !
FknA.
Peace, my friends ! skiJ
^^^^^^^^^^

Thanks! And Thank You !
I realize today that the oven with two kennels may not fit
( my project for the weekend... )
Dj, LostTrail next March - with (L)BigLost --
I don't know about my ski-ability, But 'my montana' remains a goal
( beyond the dogs, some days(,) it is my Singular goal - )
Don't even care if I don't [ / can't ] ski anymore
( still love being around it ( Skiing! ) )
tgapp - Fatherhood, Man ! How Awesome is That !
( I wish you all, all The Best ! )
leaving Tuesday,
cali. by Friday
( in May, the northern Return was 2500 miles. . . )
yippee kiyeah ?
Thank you ! skiJ
Yesterday was my last day after 24 years, six months and two days. I have been "involuntarily" retired. It's the first day of the rest of my life. I went to my AquaMobility class this morning same as I always do on Tuesday. There was no hurry to get back to my desk. Anybody got a fun, low stress job for a recovering IT guy with a CS degree? I have some Linux projects I plan to do for fun and learning, but I do eventually need to get more paychecks.
Can you fix this site? I’ll chip in $37
Just out of curiosity - whatchya doing for health insurance?Quote:

Don’t you dare fuck this thread up with your petty bullshit. Go do it elsewhere. You’ve been warned.
I lost my sibling last night. 47 years old. Had I gone through with my bullshit here my parents would have outlived both their kids. That’s fucked up.
Threatening to rape a wife or daughter huh? That's rich jong. I hope to meet you some day in person. I'll make the effort this spring in mammoth. You'll be worth the drive.Quote:
