Well, I have an update now, actually a few!
1. My therapist has seen my steady decline over the last year and has also seen how I have tried to reconnect with my family, only to not have them do their part, so she agrees that I have done all that I can do and that it would be best to bring the fabric guys back.
2. A month or so ago, I ordered a long sleeve silicone muscle shirt for Tristan.
3. I upgraded Dorian's body fill to foam padding, instead of polyester fiber fill (Poly-Fil).
4. I ordered Lawrence a full body silicone muscle suit and am extremely anxiously awaiting its arrival. *more on that below*
5. Dorian got a new spine: his thin metal tension curtain rod broke in three places. He now has a very sturdy 1/3" x 36" wood dowel for support.
6. Lawrence also got a new spine: He had the thin metal tension curtain rod as well that also broke in three places. He has a 1/2" x 36" PVC pipe.
7. I began the process earlier this week in prepping Lawrence for his new silicone muscle suit. He currently has the partial one with the dildo.
I began by removing the pins that held his silicone hands in place at his wrists, with the velcro. The velcro that is attached to the fabric wrist detached from the fabric,
so I will need to buy a sturdier fabric glue or double sided sticky adhesive when I put them back on him. For now, they are safely stored away in an empty shoe box in
the closet.
Upon removing his current silicone muscle suit with dildo, I turned it inside out and powdered it, before turning it right side out again.
Lawrence is resting in the closet for now.
8. I removed Tristan's long sleeve silicone muscle shirt and put him into Lawrence's former silicone muscle suit with dildo.
9. My husband turned Tristan's long sleeve muscle shirt inside out, powdered it and now Dorian is wearing it.
*SHOUTOUT TO MY HUSBAND WHO ASSISTED ME DURING THIS PROCESS AND WHO HELPED ME GET THE NEW MUSCLE SUIT FOR LAWRENCE THROUGH IS PAYPAL CREDIT!*
So, I ordered Lawrence's new skin a week and a half ago. It shipped on the 25th, via UPS. News of a looming strike had me very anxious, as the delivery date is expected on the last day of negotiations, but I found out this morning that the strike has been called off due to an agreement being reached.
However, UPS is still incredibly slow with this package, as is Customs. It was sent UPS Worldwide Expedited. It left China pretty quickly, reaching Anchorage and sitting for a day. Then it made it to Louisville, where the main HUB is and was cleared by Customs two hours later, but then sat for two whole days before being released by Customs.
As of this morning, after being released last night, it is still sitting at the Louisville HUB. I'm not sure at this point when it will get on a plane to DFW.
Upon reaching DFW, it will probably sit for another day before being transferred to the Arlington (or Fort Worth, THEN Arlington) hub, and onto a truck and to my house.
I really am not confident that it will arrive by Monday, as expected.
I had hopes that it would arrive this weekend because Monday is end-of-month where I work and with it being a financial institution, we have to stay until all the work that comes in, is processed. So possible late night for me.
Also, with it arriving on a weekday, I will have to wait until the following weekend to get Lawrence into his new suit, because I will have to wash it, inside and out (the silicone muscle suits come a bit greasy/oily), dry it, then turn it inside out and powder it and have my husband's help to get Lawrence into it.
That process takes a while, especially since it is a full on body suit, not a partial one like the one he had.
Even with powdering the inside, with all the tugging and pulling (see what I did there?

) it takes two people to get a fabric doll (with a slick spandex body suit at that) into the thing.
When that is done and I have the double sided sticky adhesive, or fabric glue, I can reattach Lawrence's hands.
I also need to fix one of his silicone feet. At the front and top of the ankle, the silicone tore away from the foam. I will need to pick up a new tube of Clear Silicone Adhesive to fix that. Still trying to figure out how I am going to do that with how it is currently attached to him. I won't be able to remove it, but I have a plan, at least.
I have added a black silk thong to his Amazon Wishlist.....he doesn't know it yet.
Oh and for the record, for my husband's help, I gave him an epic blowjob that still has him swooning days later.

All I gotta do is say "tongue swirl" and he goes nuts.
