Not Another Going Away Topic!


Sally

Recommended Posts

As most of you may have read, I am going to be moving to New Orleans to start over, living full time as myself and with a wonderful friend - Lizzy!

So what does this have to do with my being away from the playground a bit more?

I have to go through all of my stuff and decide what to keep, what to sell, what to donate and what to just throw away.

Then clean up everything else - add to that getting all of the Photography business wrapped up before I leave - I have a lot to do.

So I will be here on my breaks but I cannot allow myself too many - I need to get out of here!

So to all of my friends here, I am not abandoning you, I still love you and you do have a lot of great people here so I am sure that you will all get along just fine between my visits.

Once in New Orleans - expect updates - often!

I will probably post a lot as July in New Orleans is nearly as hot as it is here so I will tend to be inside unless I am playing or listening in a Jazz Club.

Until then keep a kind thought for me - you are always in mine.

Love ya,

Sally

Well,

It's just like the two of you to run off and leave your best girlfriend holding the bag!

But, that's alright....you both have a lot to do ...years of living has to be sorted out and downsized...quite the job in itself...

I wish you the best, Sweetheart......you know that!

P.S. send me any good stuff that you're gonna throw out....(I need more junk!)

LOVE

I am gonna miss you Sally but I know you will be back when you can. I know you will enjoy New Orleans especially getting to be yourself full time. I am sure it will be great hanging out with Lizzy as well. Until then, Good luck and have fun!

Hugs,

Daphene

Hi Sally,

I'm so giddy happy for you and Lizzy! Somehow, we'll limp along without you - I'll try to keep those panic calls for help to a minimum - no promises to stop.

I hope it all goes well for you - it's got to be a lot of work when you've been in one place for a long time.

Anybody want to lay bets on Sally reaching 11,000 posts while she's "away"?

Love, Kat

Some things in life are even more important than Laura's (although someone else is going to have to bake some cookies around here...)

Congrats on the move. It will be great for both you and Lizzy.

I sure understand about moving. What you think are a few things to go through ends up becoming a mountain. Although knowing you are going to be heading for a new chapter in your life where you can be free (finally) to be yourself has be be exciting. Will be waiting for your return.

Love Susan

Congrats on the move ladies I know you two will be like two peas in a pod once you get moved in together. Sally are you planning on moving your photography business to New Orleans that would be such a great opportunity especially with the many photo opts that town has to offer. Then there is the oil spill that needs documenting. I'm just throwing out some Idea's but this should be exciting for the two of you.

Love

Sally, I know how much work is involved in getting ready for a move, and I know you are going to be physically exhausted

in the coming days. So please pace yourself and don't overdo it.

On the bright side, every bit of work you do now brings you that much closer to leaving behind bitter memories, and closer to

a new, brighter, happier and more fulfilling life. For that I am grateful, because I know how unhappy you've been.

This next new adventure is really the beginning for Sally, and the end of the line for the male part of you. It is also the end of

the days and nights of loneliness.

All of us, your friends, have been telling you that things will get better if you just hang in there and keep hope alive.

And now you see that it was all true. You will be yourself at last, and have someone to share your joys, talk you out

of your blues, steal your pillow, and kick you out of the chair so you don't sleep in it any more. :lol:

Life is an amazing thing when you can share it with a friend. I'm glad you found that friend. I wish you Godspeed, Sally, as

your ride on the Womanhood Express makes a final stop on the track, right alongside the City of New Orleans. I'll be waving

goodbye as you melt into the crowd.

Love

Carolyn Marie

Sally.....

I really don't know why I'm gonna miss you so much...Heck, you'll be even closer to me....

But, then again, the sun is closer than Alpha Centuri.....I can't visit either of those either...

I cannot believe that you are comparing me to stars - I never knew you thought I was that bright!

Mom,

Love ya,

Sally

Starting a new chapter in your life, as am I. Doesn't it feel great?

I suppose we'll have to have a housewarming party once you've settled in and are frequenting Laura's regularly again. :)

Congrats and best of luck, Sally!

Emmmm...

I am not especially known for being meek here. maybe just opinionated in a meek way!

Let me say here something that needs to be known... ready???

Sally is my friend!

There- said it!

We have each pulled the other out of deep deep holes. You people have no idea!

I love my friend, Momma Sally!

You know that I love you too, Lizzy.

We have been through a lot together and all of the rough times are not over.

Two more letters today from two different law firms - divorce attorneys asking for a document that has not been required or one issued since 2005 and then there is the Mortgage company trying to foreclose - I am so happy!

What a joy it is to open your mail and find such presents.

Love ya,

Sally

Good luck Sally! I wish you the best. Make sure you pick a place ABOVE the water table!

Figures, as soon as I move near you and happen to need a regular photographer/videographer, you up and move away!

Sorry just had to be said. ;)

Have fun and safe trip. :P

HA! My wife kicked me out! Now SHE can answer all the mail! We will have a post office box, one NOT anywhere near our place! My attorney said to do that.

That sounds good to me - nothing but bills and junk mail anyway - everyone I want to talk to is on the Internet and I will no longer have to get my clothing through mail order - we'll go shopping!

Love ya,

Sally

      Not of people usually, but places have a "color sense" to me.  Not exactly visual, but like a feeling.  Almost a taste or sometimes tactile.    My home, and the temple of my faith community both have a strong feeling of "silver."  A tasteable, nearly tactile radiance...it means safety, and I seek it out.  It kind of transfers to people associated with those places, like my husband.  I knew he was good the moment I met him.  Some places have a color sense like fire, a combination of red and orange.  As you might expect, it is an exciting or dangerous feeling.  Attractive in a way.  Part of me is drawn toward it, another part of me is skittish of it.  Other places have a blue/green color sense, which can be iridescent toward purple-ish.  Its peaceful and calm.    What I really don't like is a sickly, greenish-gray color.  I can't even describe it fully.  The sense is slimy, slick, cold and revolting.  To me, it is a feeling of intense danger about a place or a person.  I'm usually more oblivious to the other color senses, but this one grabs my attention.  To me, it is associated with pure evil.    One of my strongest impressions of the evil color it happened at a natural spring in a state park near where I live.  I was walking around with a friend and I felt it, and she thought I was totally crazy.  I wanted to leave so bad, just terrified.  Thankfully she followed me out.  I only found out later that a murderer had escaped from prison and was recaptured there...he had been living near the spring, and we were maybe within 200 yards of him.  My color sense probably saved our lives.

      Not exactly.  Me alone - I'm helpless and can hardly do anything.  But with my partners I'm protected and supported, and a lot more things are possible for me.    My husband teaches a lesson to his kids when they fight, I've seen him do this a couple of times.  He'll hand them a bundle of sticks tied together, and tell the kids to try to break it.  Of course, it doesn't work.  Then he takes the bundle apart, and tells them to break the sticks one by one.  One person alone is easily overwhelmed or broken.  Two or more people together can stand firm against adversity.

      When I joined it was purely a play on Maybe. Mae happens to have a couple letters in common with my given name and I started using it when introducing myself to strangers. Since then, actually yesterday, when I caught up with an old friend and told her about my transition she thought she heard "Maeve" when I said "Mae". I could still use Mae as a nickname, it works well with my mother's name as a middle name (she died in 2019 and I love the idea of connecting with her memory more), and my initials wouldn't change if I change my name. So, Maeve it will likely be unless something better comes along. ;)

      I've not had a lot of involuntary action in that department and I'm 6mo in. After 3mo. my T was under 30. My doc wanted labs mid-cycle (3-4 days after my shot) oddly, but I am going to insist on getting trough numbers to determine if T is pushing back when serum E is low. I almost felt like I was going to have MW yesterday morning when I woke up (day of my shot), so I get where your thoughts are on the subject. It would be good to know how long that suppression lasts, not that T&E levels are complete indicators--my doctor doesn't seem to have any plans to check for the broader spectrum of metrics I see a lot on forums like SHBG, etc.

      Take two   blood letting is complete it took two of them pesky little mosquitoes.   our dog came to us mostly potty trained. She had a few “I can’t wait” moments but for the most part she was good.  She learned to ask th be let out. We had a bell on the door and taught her to ring the bell.  Then she learned how to open the door herself.  As long as it wasn’t locked out she’d go.  We had her trained to a hidden fence and collar she would go to the limit and sit and wait for us to tell her it was ok. She has always responded to verbal commands or my whistles.   Oh and there are obvious negatives about a dog knowing how to open doors.  She would disappear and we’d suddenly see her out the window.  Or we’ would let her out and suddenly realize she was sitting with us.  She never learned to close the doors, only open then.

      It took me less than 6 months, in how my body quickly responded to hormone therapy, I was once a 40 jeans size, and now I'm comfortably wearing 12 to 14 sizes. Estrogen can speed things up and can slow things down in order to make adjustments. Seeing a treating doctor is very important to monitor the hormone levels to avoid possible side effects later on in life.

      I actually have Yoga as part of my exercise routine at the moment.  Since I'm still in the first month (of three, arbitrarily chosen by me) I've only got it slated for weekends, Sat/Sun.  I am finding out though if I get a little in during my morning wake up that when I get to my cardio in the evening, my joints don't ache as much. Right now the routine is: Weekly - Minimum of 3 days of cardio Weekly - Minimum 1 day of Yoga Monthly - Single endurance jog, preferably on Sunday I want my big thighs and butt to kinda hang around, so I am going to work some cycling into the mix after the third month. So far though, with the help of the Yoga stretches, Down 14lbs in a month. Next week is month 2.  ;_;  Going to put the tredmill on a slight incline to see if I'm ready for it.  If ya don't hear from me, the tredmill ate me. Oh!  I use a product called Yoga Stack 52, so I can Yoga at home.  It's just a deck of cards with the poses, difficulty, areas they stretch, and a nifty QR code you can scan to see a demonstration.
