Well, today I gave it a shot.  I went for Saturday coffee with the guys.  Decided to leave out the pad, and go in my big boy pants, and no protection.

Went really well, with no leaks.

But then, when I came home, I decided to cut down a dead tree in the front yard.  Now that's pushing it.  Ended up a little damp, but overall, I am getting really close.

yeah

Now this is a real encouragement to my psyche !

Way to go man. Good luck with the continued progress.

I am worried about one thing though. Will your success with being dry - negate that great Dry Sense of Humor that you have been exhibiting here at HW.

Sure would miss that.

Maybe it will get dryer ! Also depends on worried guy. We kind of feed off of each other.

Hey Goodlife
Kimberly Clarke's pension fund is still secure. I soaked an extra pad today while splitting wood - the lignin and hemicellulose kind of wood, unfortunately.
Can a woody for you be far behind?
Congratulations!

Great news......Congrats

I think the twigs I picked up today are the closest I will get for a while. Willie does respond with the trimix, but by the time I get everything all ready, I either forget what I was gong to do, or my wife falls asleep.

But I'm not complaining. I'm living the good life !

Now quit horsing around. Chop down a cherry tree and admit it, might be noble for some historic reason (lol).
How much wood, wood a wood chuck-chuck if a wood chuck, could chuck wood? (maybe chuck that joke?).....I know don't quit my day job, comedy needs a treatment or two, well maybe that is hopeless on that front. Gotta split now, have you run into lady Godiva while riding?

Goodlife -- have you ever considered sweat as soaking your pad? I believe that Jeff, when he is not doing kinky things with lignin and hemicellulose, devised a detector built from kitchen utensils and salvaged U-boat parts, which can differentiate sweat from pee. As far as going after cherries with your tree, you all might consider our "Family" rating. In any case it sounds like your journeys with incontinence are becoming less and less interesting -- nice!

Obviously if your wife falls asleep it is because she does not have enough tasks to keep her awake -- have her cut down the next tree!

Hey Geezer,
Don't forget the TENS unit ! One electrode attaches here... and the other there... and when a drop of pee comes out ... OOuch! That hurts!
Ouch!, Quick! Ouch!, Someone call 911!!!

Clearly I'm not ready to give up my pee pads. Ouch! I'm still a leaker.

Jeff, Ouch!

Well, I completed day two. I actually cheated yesterday after the paul Bunyan thing and put a on for the afternoon and evening.

Today was a milder day, sitting in church, Sunday dinner, foorball, nap, etc.

Made it all day with just a little wetness.

Nope , it isn't sweat. Too yellow. I guess I could eat some asparagus, then I would know for sure it wasn't sweat.

I think bending over manual labor was the one of the hardest tihings to get over. But the worst seems to be farting, still leak at a good fart.
Posted 11/9/2009 5:23 PM (GMT 0)
For me, farting and peeing are 100% linked. Like: soup and sandwich, or guns and ammo, or bacon and eggs, or salt and pepper, or Mutt and Jeff...
I'm on a roll. Someone please stop me!
