I was wondering the same thing. I hope everything is ok.

Thanks! We'll be back soon enough. Thanks for taking the time to inquire

You are really supposed to wash them before you use them

I did. I meant a few

Besides, it would do a lot to eliminate some of the lingering odors....

Go to fetware dot com & consult the "Product Care" section. They have extensive information for exactly these kinds of questions

What does

It's a type of weave, like birdseye.

Ah ok :)

No, I don't mean anything like a nursery, though that would be nice. I mean like a cloth diaper service, a service that will either supply you with freshly laundered diapers once or twice a week, or at the very least wash ones that you provide.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about--the "diaper cleaner" segment of this program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7hAyCZokJE. I wish there were an online list of places like that, that wash diapers for both adults and babies.

I can see how that might be a good service

Isn't this the same story you told a couple months ago?

Same issue, different person....

Unlike the first person I spoke of, I don't think this person made the leap to my being an AB, or indeed knows such people exist. Should she ask, I'll probably fall back on my "therapeutic reasons" excuse.

Do you have one of those fancy fill-able pacifiers so you can suck on it and get coffee at the same time?

No, but now that you mention it, that wouldn't be a bad idea. =)

I am strictly a Dolly person. They are exclusively Little Girl

So true...but stuffed animals are too irresistibly soft not to love. =)

The human shape and features of a doll's body, even it it is made of hard material, makes her pretty cuddly. Also, if you name them personally Like I do, the names give them a sense of being a perosn, which is also loveable. I have no trouble cuddling Andrea or Lisa. I love to look into their sparkly eyes as much as anything. In fact, if a doll wants me to pick her up, all I have to see is her eyes sparkle. And when I had real cats, they used to sleep with me at bedtime

I am sorry to hear that. Get well soon

I've had cerebral palsy all my life.

That's great, little stuff like that always gets me. I actually just got plastic pants a few months back to make leaks less likely. Where did you get it from?

I got it through my local med-supply store. About time--I'd been requesting one for years.

I could: No tiara?

Well, how can we see the skirt? or at least tell us about it: How long? What color? What kind of material? is it a full-circle

A picture will be forthcoming,I assure you. If I send it to you personally rather than posting it generally, it won't be picked up in image searches, will it?

And thanks, by the way, for re-sending your friend request. My intention was never to disappear, only to take a sabbatical of a couple of days.

What happened was when I was going to send you a message, I hit "Romove me as a Friend" by accident. so I had to re-add you

As long as you do not use a recognizable part of you, it will not matter if it gets picked up by an image search engines, You could post it to the forum and it would not matter. It would help if you could remove the EXIF file by using a photo editor like IrfanView to Rename and Save it

I'm sure she appreciated it.

Now all you need to do is start orgaizing it into subdivisions and adding images and links. For the images, you will need a place to store the images and link them with the img= tag. I can get you a copy of mine to show what it looks like as a txt

Good for you I hope you have lots of fun with her

You should probably just collect all of them xD

At $6.50 apiece, I'll have to do it very slowly....

Eat good, dark chocolate. Very little sugar, good fats, and the compounds that tease the reward centers are extra concentrated. Probably the best way to indulge a needy sweet tooth without messing up your diet much.

Pop some stovetop popcorn, add a teaspoon of cocoa powder and give it a shake!

I don't diet. I just eat a little of everything so I get a full compliment of nutrients without overdoing anything or underdoing anything

Actuall I eat something each day from the five food groups: Pzza, chips, chocolate, beer and Rolaids

The struggle is real.

I've occasionally entertained the idea of coming out to everyone as an AB, but I don't want history to repeat itself. I told my home-health agency about me in the nineties, which backfired. They were so creeped out they didn't want me as a client after that. Of course, I was also transitioning male to female at the time, which didn't help. The two together were a bit high on their "weird" scale.

Gotcha. Do they live with you 24/7? It really is no different from anyone else living with someone else who doesn't know and having to hide things. Granted I don't know your full situation, so its really hard to give any advice.

No, they don't live with me--they're here only an hour a day. But since they do the dishes for me and various light housekeeping, they do open my cabinets and drawers quite a bit. Consequently, I don't have very many hiding places that they never look through.
