Kia Ora,[to all the oldies who know me and those who don't]

:rolleyes: I've been away for a while,[but have checked in every now and again just to see how things were going]Anyway I had forgot my password so applied for a new one, however for some strange reason even though I was logged in, I seemed to be blocked from posting under my old name which was 'Jendar'=[the weird Kiwi lady]...It's possible when I left I deleted a lot of info from my profile which could have accounted for the strange goings on when I tried to post.Anyway so from 'Jendar' I've morphed to[open a new account under] 'Zenda'but I assure you I'm still the same ol weird Kiwi lady :wacko: ....

Umm :rolleyes: a brief re-intro = I was born 'transsexual' but now I'm a fully fledged 'woman' with no 'trans' prefix[ I have been since 2005 when I have 'affirmation' surgery] prior to that I had lived fully time as a 'trans'-woman for around 5 years-started HRT in 1997/8 went full time around 18months later, that is, I just blended into main stream society as a 'female'=5ft 4inches-122 pound [56kgs-I've 'reduce' my weight from 60kgs-through jogging B) ].Fortunately I was quite androgynous looking 'body and facial features' prior to starting HRT ...

I live in paradise B) -well a tiny laid back island in the South Pacific just off the coast of Auckland, Aotearoa's capital city-It's a beautiful island with beautiful beaches, bush walks, and beautiful laid back people B) .

If on the odd occasion I sign off with Metta 'Jendar' you will know why...[Mettais Pali [a language spoken at the time of the Buddha] for 'Loving Kindness'... BTW Kia Ora's a greeting in Maori[the language of the indigenous people of Aotearoa=NZ]

End of brief re-intro ;) ...

Metta Zenda :D

PS no doubt I'll have to find my way around the forum again..And Sally those cookies were stale the chocolate cake was off and the coffee was cold so get your act together or no more tips from me ;)

I remember having Kia Ora shouted at me xD it was done in a friendly way, by a group of practicing religious folk - so I assumed it was nice :)

I love my Neighbours :)

So a big G'day Mate from Maria :wub:

:rolleyes: I hope you and your family are fairing well and enjoyed Xmas and new year, as for me, my life flows with the changes[nothing is permanent]so I just go with the flow=随波逐流=Sui-bo-zhu-liu B):rolleyes: which reminds me, for some reason I can't access my 'new' Zenda profile, also the email address I gave is not correct...So once I can access my profile I'll hopefully sort things...

WELCOME BACK, JENDAR!

It's so lovely to hear from you again after so long. It sounds like things are going well for you (how badly can they go in Paradise?? :) ). One more post and you'll have access to you profile again and can set things up the way you want. The Admins will be along in a few hours to get the accounts right.

I look forward to many fun conversations.

When you come back on you will find a fresh plate of cookies, some hot coffee and cocoa if you would prefer, the chocolate cake has to be earned as always so post something to really make me think. :D

It is so good to hear from you again, I have really missed our discussions - I have the same old PM address even though I have moved to New Orleans to live with Lizzy and Dee Jay.

Life is constantly changing and so it seems are we, so let's get reacquainted.

Love ya,

Sally

Hello Jendar,

Welcome back. It's good to see you again. I hope you don't mind but I took the liberty of merging your old account with this new one. It's much easier to keep all your info in one place and it complies with our rule of one account for each member. :)

MaryEllen

Do you prefer to be known as Jendar or Zenda??

Kia Ora MaryEllen,

Nice to catch up with you again :)

As for the name 'e'ither-e'i'ther...Because I'm signing in as Zenda, it's easier for me to remember, but please feel free to call me either name... :)

Metta Zenda :)

Kia Ora Lizzy,

:rolleyes: Nice catching up with you again B)...

I've just read your post re: :angry::( at not feeling complete ...Life, Lizzy is what we choose to make of it- Our past as shaped our present and our present will shape our future...

:D Happiness :D is nothing more than a :( 'state of mind' :) ...Learn how to find happiness in the 'present moment' and it will automatically flow into the future with you!

To do this all you need to do is to accept what 'is' -and what 'is' is in a constant state of flux...In other words "Nothing is permanent!" Not even ones emotions...

:D Happy :D Mindfulness=contentment with what 'is' :mellow:

Metta Zenda :)

PS :rolleyes: by the time your mind has tried to decipherer :unsure: the above your depressed state will be well and truly gone :) ...

      Please consider joining us, even if it's just for a few minutes to see what the meetings are like. I've learned so much, had so much fun and gained confidence in myself just by being a part of this amazing group of people. It's a low key, no pressure, non-judgmental chance to just be among people who are supportive, understanding and affirming of each other.    I'm travelling out of state and still planning on dropping in for awhile.    Come see what it's like!! 
    • April Marie
      Thank you, Susan!! It was such an amazing experience for me. I can't remember if I even talked about it on a Zoom meeting.   Here is the link to the post I made about it. And, again, thank you for helping to give me the courage to do it.

      Good morning coffees   This probably doesn’t exactly apply to me because you wouldn’t have found a more shy and conservative person than me.  I was perhaps less shy before my sister started complaining about me doing things that were hers to do. And I would become embarrassed and that was the end of that.   upstairs unit got their typical weekend visitors in the middle of the night last night.  They woke me up.  They have little consideration for being in a condo community and the neighbors being in such close proximity.   @awkward-yet-sweet , how goes the job with your husband’s boss?  I don’t recall you saying much about it this week, but I could have missed a post along the way.  If I recall you were supposed to meet with him last Monday.   @KymmieL I hope you are feeling better.     Yes, I find it to be wrong that just because a car part says Ford or Chevrolet on the box that same part with Lincoln or Cadillac on the box cost a lot.more.  I know there are differences in the upscale brands such as the engine and drivetrain in the Caddy and of course the interior fit and finish.  But it’s the same body with things crammed in the same way under the hood.     well, time to finish my coffee, fix my hair and made my way across the street to work.    willow

      I read about her this morning. What a shame! She was beautiful and it seems she had a strong support system in place and could have had a wonderful life all to have it end like this. Such a waste. I truly hope the monster that killed her gets everything he deserves.
    • Susan R
      They’re not going to stop anytime soon either. Tighten your belts folks were in for a long ride.

      I am so glad you enjoy them as well. The help things “stay put” so well. It got me through some of my most dysphoric times.   Wow, I hadn’t heard this at last week’s Zoom meeting if you had mentioned it. That is a huge milestone April Marie.I have no doubt that this confidence will only grow in time. The freedom of being yourself, especially in public, is a wonderful feeling. I am truly happy for you.😘   *Big Congratulatory Hug* Susan R🌷
