This is a self promotion, my blog has two short stories at the moment, others will come so be fore warned! I have shared 'The Awakening' with a few individuals here and was asked by most of them to post it, I hope that you will read and enjoy my work, I take pride in it and love to share.

Thank you for reading and feel free to leave a comment,

I replied to ALONE - it hit dead center with me. I use the word actor instead of puppet - but puppet shows a real lack of being able to contol your destiny and seems so much more descriptive. I especially liked your dictionary intro which set up the lead-in so well. You delivered the idea that the word ALONE to us transgendered has a very poignant and specialized meaning. It's early in the morning and I haven't had my coffee - or I just might go back to bed and sob a bit - darn it Sally... we are such a sad bunch here sometimes.

I've added another one, it actually is written around an excerpt from an E-mail that I sent to my therapist before I scheduled my first session. So this is actually much older than the others.

Enjoy,

Sally

Well she's at it again!

I've posted another short story.

For those of you afraid to visit because you don't have time to read a short story, mine should better be described as essays - 2 pages is really long for me! :)

Love ya,

Sally

Hey Sally :)

I read your 'waking up' story, It was written very well, I could see everything that was expressed in clear detail, it also made me cry.

Much luv, Jacci xo

Thanks, Jacci,

That one was written kind of more for 'us', but like the others they are kind of an attempt to explain to 'them' that 'we' are just human beings and 'we' have feelings and dreams to!

Someone 'stop' me before I 'air quote' again!

Love ya,

Sally

Well I've been at it again, That brings the entries to 16, actually one is a rewrite so there are only 15 different stories or poems.

I hope that some of you will take the time to read them, I feel a great release and even joy when I write and I hope that some of you can feel the same.

Even reading a sad story can serve as a release and make you feel better.

Let my therapy be your therapy as well.

Here's that address again:

...more!

You asked for it, there is more!

Another new one from the never ending store house of words, Sally's Word processor!

"It slices, it dices and best of all it is the world's fastest home cole slaw maker!"

It's Word - O - Matic!

Don't accept substitutes, only Sally's Word - O - Matic comes with the satire blade, the irony blade, the exclusive pathos blade and the patented pun attachment!

Oh, did I mention that I have added a new essay?

Love ya,

Sally

That newest work was inspired by a topic posted by KristieTS, "Where Are The Trannsexuals From?" and it started me thinking - always dangerous! :o

"If women are from Venus and men are from Mars, what planet do transsexuals come from?" :unsure:

Enjoy a little slice of my own special brand of insanity, there's plenty more where that came from. :wacko:

Love ya,

Sally

By the way, this one isn't depressing at all! :D

Oh, no, don't look, just ignore her and she'll go away.

That's why I always have cookies, to bring you in.

I have another observation on my blog.

So what else is new?

      OK Governor Signs School Bathroom Bill Into Law

      By KatieSC · Posted

      So, I am curious. Is the Governor going to mandate vaginal or penile recognition photos before one enters the restroom? Considering the Governor has no balls to do the right thing, will he have to pee against a tree outside? Inquiring minds would like to know. I love it when the job recruiters contact me about the wonderful jobs available in Oklahoma. It is so much fun telling them there is no way I will ever go to Oklahoma. When there are no workers, then they can shutter the place.

      If you could talk for 1 hour about any topic without preparation, what would it be?

      By Jet McCartney · Posted

      Ngl, probably Sonic the Hedgehog, the Beatles, or the Monkees. Those are the three subjects I know the most about so I could drop hours of info on them.

      Thank you! I'm out of coffee so I have been drinking hot tea instead. Looking forward to the 1st. It's crazy that we are almost in May. This year has flown by really quick! Good to hear that y'all got to sleep in. Hope you have a good weekend too!

      Acceptance

      By Ashley0616 · Posted

      It's nice to care about others but you need to live your life as you please. No one be your only source of happiness. Love yourself and don't look back. I lost over 40 family members it hurts but apparently, they didn't truly love me. True love will always be there through the thick and thin. I can honestly say that HRT has made me think in ways that I never thought I would. I get myself some shoes or clothes every month because retail therapy not only helps but it is a reward to myself to show love. I have over 100 dresses. I have a whole walk-in-closet full of clothes and 67 pairs of shoes. I love who I am. I was born in 84 so not all people in the 80's think that way. As far as the name just take your time and be happy with it. I knew I loved the name Ashley. Take care and welcome!

      WOW @Ashley0616 it’s good that you have skills to treat traumatic injuries, as well as the ability to remain calm while managing others needs to get yourself and the boys ready to go to the hospital. Proud mama bear skills. I’m glad that he’s doing well.    Meanwhile back at the ranch, we slept in and I’m just now finishing my 3rd cup of coffee.    Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well yesterday was not fun. I was getting ready to make dinner and I hear screaming and crying. I look over and my son put his foot through glass. He gashed near his Achilles tendon. Thankfully that is intact. I didn't freeze for a second. All of my military training came into play. I doctored him up and got Jett ready and myself and we headed to the ER. He is doing ok today. He says he is in pain but doesn't need Tylenol. He is a tough cookie!

      Hi,   It's seems today is my trans birthday.  I'm beyond excited. Just picked up my testogel from the pharmacy. Although I naturally have doubts as I'm sure do we all, they are rapidly disappearing. Yesterday I was so nervous I kept claiming I'm not trans, despite grinning like a fool knowing I can pick up my prescription the next day. I'm shaking and on the verge of happy tears. I will put on my first sachet this eve. Thanks so much to this forum and kind words from people. This is the first forum I found when I began seriously questioning.

      Project 2025

      By awkward-yet-sweet · Posted

      While the Soviet Union did not end up being the source of all evil, I believe that history has shown that Joe McCarthy generally was right. There ARE all kinds of Marxists slithering around. And if that had been dealt with firmly 75 years ago (or more) the nation wouldn't be in the shape that it's in now.    And while I generally oppose the idea of intervening in foreign affairs, the world probably would have been better off if we had taken care of issues in Russia and defeated the Bolshevik Menace back in 1919. God bless the memory of Admiral Kolchak.   Getting back to project 2025, my belief is that Republican efforts are inappropriately focused on trans folks. A minority of a minority does not wreck a nation. But it is easier to focus on trans folks because they can look like they're doing something. They don't have to address the real problems, and really they don't want to address them because they would have to address themselves.  They would also need to admit that the 50 State version of the USA cannot be saved.
