Aww, Sally, that's so sweet of you.

Has anyone noticed that she's getting awfully close to 3,000 posts? How good is that?

Shhhhsh - she will hear!

You have to understand there are actually many "SALLY" on her staff - like James Mitchner and Isaac Asimov, she has a ghost writing staff, all she really does is push the send button. It's a little known secret. She funds it by (censored by the moderatoring staff), so be careful not to open any attachments!

MaryEllen just hit 2000 postings last week! Two of them actually were polite and said nice things about people (Mother's Day one to 'mom' and a 'thank you letter about a barbie doll" to some guy in a red suit)

But if I don't say SOMETHING nice on the TOPIC - wowwww WWoftheW descends! or is it WWoftheE - I forget. hee hee

I had a good day today! I ate Chinese and my fortune cookie said "Your are in transition" - HOW'd they KNOW???

I get a telephone call from one of my best girlfiriends every Saturday. Another girlfriend watches me on the Forum and writes so lovingly concerned if she sees a hint of depression. Another screams and yells I am PM'ing everyone but her!

Oh to be loved!

And I am listening to vintage 'Platters' this morning. "Fools Fall in Love." Life is good!

Life would be good if someone would ever PM me or evencall it's not like I'm hard to find! :(

I worked all day yesterday - shooting a small wedding and a dance competition!

The only bad part was I had to be in full male mode for the day - the good part was I decided not to wear my pink, floral panties but went with the standard men's tighty whities.

Why was that good?

I ripped the seat of my pants during the set up at the dance competition, never had a chance to change but no one seemed to notice.

If I had been wearing m pretty panties I would have been so paranoid!

So it was a good thing! :D

Love ya,

Sally

Hey Sally I bet if you had been wearing your pretty panties instead of tidy whities they would have noticed lol.

Glad for you it didnt turn out that way.

I am having good day the sun is shining yeah and all next week temps are going to be up there. I can do without all the rain even tho I know we need it.

I talk to my granddaughter today just like I do every Sunday and she is doing great so all in all great day.

Aw, I was going to explain.

Hey why don't we give her different explanations?

That would be mean.

I spent the whole day out yesterday as me and passed without any make up!

I am one day closer to my doctor's appointment in July!

My good things in life include when wrongs get righted. This is sort of what happens in the Angie Zapata case - it seems a tremendous victory was had, at least for prosecution of murder as a hate crime, when violence or death is directed at a person solely because of their transgender condition or sexual orientation.

BUT hardly anyone won in this process. The murderer certainly has a ruined life, and his family suffers. Angie Zapata is dead, and her family suffers. The defense made asses of themselves, the press seems to have run through their usual exploitation of the whole thing (sells advertising - we are accustomed to it by now, a forfet of morality as usual) and - my main point - those who responded with discrimitary and inflamatory comments, hate mail and postings seem unvindicated.

Only those who were outraged at the murder and the actions of the defense team may have won something - and of course, the prosecution team. I would suggest their taste of victory is bittersweet. Angie is dead - and many probably still think she was the cause of her own death.

Another American tragedy.

Yet it was the best thing I can remember happening in a long time, at least for me. A wrong got righted - I hope it lasts a few days, or months, or years.

Musing a bit tonight...

I'm getting the cast off my arm on Tuesday -hopefully won't need any more time in a cast after they x-ray it.

I should be getting my jaw un-wired on Thursday - oh to eat solid food again. :P

My two kittens (6months) make me laugh. They are very funny and in a lot of ways act very much like myself and my girlfriend.

My girlfriend - she is amazing. She has been so good to me. She was with me the entire time I was in the ICU. She went to court with me. She accepts me. We have fun together. For the first time in my life, I have someone who loves me. That makes me happy. B)

I just got out of my first ever appointment with a therapist. Hooray, or something of that nature.

And now I'm stalling for time before making a frighteningly important phone call to a bank. Wish me luck!

Hey, Jacci,

So glad that all is well, looking forward to getting you back here so we can see more photos.

We had a Thunderstorm of monumental proportions on Saturday - spawning large hail and a few unconfirmed tornadoes - over 8 inches of rain in about two hours, over 2000 cloud to ground lightening strikes recorded in a 45 minute period and collapsing the Dallas Cowboys practice facility during a rookie mini camp.

What is good about that - no one died - one of the scouts suffered a broken back and is paralyzed but still alive - amazing when you realize that the roof collapsed bringing all of the beams down from a height of 80 feet.

Love ya,

Sally

I recorded a CD with a bunch of originals on it. Every one I've talked to today wants a copy :D

So...I thought it would be nice idea to make a thread for happy news. Post a good thing that happend to you today, or anytime. Re-live the good day or just brag about somthing good that happend.

Hmm...me? I got a new webcam! Which means 100% more clearer pictures to take of myself. :lol: I'm so excited.(Shhhh don't say anything to hurt my ego.)

What about YOU?

It finally happened...

If anyone read my intro a few months ago, or on my member page, I have wanted to go to a bridal store to try on wedding dresses.

WELL...

not exactly a bridal shop, but I was in my favorite thrift store and there on the rack was a brand new wedding dress from Davids Bridal, in size 16W. Perfect!

I grabbed a shopping cart, put the dress in the cart and wheeled it to the dressing rooms.

That was so awesome!!!

The dress fit me like it was tailored for me. It hugged me and felt sooo incredible. :)

Even though I was stuck in a very small dressing room, with only one mirror, I felt like a bride on her wedding day... :wub:

Ashlee

I so wanted to take it home with me, but at $125, that just was not going to happen... :(

      They cut a lot of trees here as well.  A lot of them toward the coast end up chipped up and sent to Europe to burn in power plants.  That bothers me, seems like a dumb idea.
    • Ivy
      Most likely.   Unfortunately this was expected.  I expect it will be the norm in any GOP controlled state that hasn't already done it.  So much effort expended against so few.  I certainly haven't seen my area being overrun by trans kids.   And yeah, I fully expect them to go after my HRT next. I think those that are railing against us are much more dangerous than some non-binary high school sophomore.
    • April Marie
      Her name is Sunny and she is so much fun. But, as you said @KymmieL, it is a challenge with a new puppy. Thankfully our 13 year old Lab is taking the addition in stride and being supremely tolerant.  
    • Ivy
      It should be the league's business whether it allows trans women to play, not the park's.   (They seem to be inclusive - good on them)
    • Mirrabooka
      Sticking my neck out here, but that's what I see the RWNJ's doing all the time! They always need someone or something to "fight". Everything is a contest to them; there's always a battle to be had, an opponent to defeat, a dragon to slay, then another, and another.    *Sigh* if only they'd put their energy into working with people instead of against them.
    • Charlize
      I think i became much more emotional overall.  Perhaps because use a topical E i haven't had the swings that some folks feel but i can laugh  and cry so much easier, sometimes over situations i would never have seen before.  Perhaps my age has something to do with it, but i am also much more peaceful and accepting of the storm life keeps presenting.   Hugs,   Charlize 
    • Mirrabooka
      I think the interpretation of the question is always going to provide a wide array of answers. Do I have a rich inner life? Yes! Why? Good question!   Circumstances often dictate how we feel within ourselves. I don't have to deal with work anymore and we've been jus' cruzin ever since. I don't have to fix anything, literal or otherwise. My wife and I live a relatively simple life and we are true partners, but deep inside, I'm not answerable to anyone except myself. So, how's that going? Well, since I came out to myself, which happened before I stopped working, I have felt an inner glow that was never apparent before. It is permanent now and it sustains me. How? Effed if I know! All I know is that even if I have down days, and there certainly have been a few, my heart, mind and soul are still smiling. I think it comes from a realization that I am finally happy just to be me.     
    • Charlize
      I had to look this acronym up.  That certainly has never been part of the LGBTQ community!  Politicians simply attempt to use peoples disgust to create the hate or fear they can "fight" against to win support and power.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • KymmieL
      Congrats, @April Marie on your new fur kid. As the mom to a 1 yr old fur kid. I know what you are going through. LOL.   Back to work after a good weekend. I hope that work doesn't drag my good weekend down. However, I believe it is wishful thinking. I will do the best that I can, if that is not enough. They can jump in a fing lake.   I have another week until my therapist appointment. So I hope I can make it. it seems my depression is getting worse. Can it, is there something lower that major?  Especially when dealing with work. So, I know I have to get out of there. I have put in for the parts at the local GM. Probably, be like Ford. OH, well nothing ventured nothing gained.      Hope everyone has a good day. Hugs, Kymmie  
    • Charlize
      If what you mean by defemination  is that folks are doubting or refusing to believe your feminity i'm sure others here have felt that.  I know i have in the past.  It seems to be part of the continuous attempt by some to see us all quietly hiding in the closet.   I don't fit in there anymore.   Hugs,   Charlize
    • Mirrabooka
      Yay!!! 😀 What's her name?
    • Mirrabooka
      Yep, I can see that too, especially if satire goes wrong.  I can totally understand why the uneducated hoi polloi think that gender identity and sexual preference (and now, pedophilia) are one and the same, and it weaponizes their bigotry. I touched on this in another thread recently when I asked the question whether the LGBTQIA+ umbrella was actually too inclusive and should be split, in an attempt to stop this sort of nonsense. I don't know the answer; while I think it is important for non-cis and non-het folk to band together, it leaves us wide open to attack.

      Good morning, everyone!   Sorry I've been absent so much. I truly miss the interaction with you all.    We have a new yellow Lab female puppy in the house as of Saturday so it's a challenge to find time to be here as we get her settled into a schedule, work on housebreaking and training, etc.    So, I'll check in as I can...when I can get a few minutes as she sleeps.   She slept 6 hours last night so we're making progress and we've been attentive to her schedule so no accidents in the house as of now.   She's consistently following the Sit command already - the wonder of puppy treats.    Be safe!!
    • April Marie
      New puppy. New schedule for now.
    • KatieSC
      Yeah, it is a real treat trying to combat the effects of an unwanted male puberty, or unwanted female puberty. Who will supply these kids with funding when they try to transition as adults? Insurance companies do everything they can to weasel out of paying for facial surgery, voice/speech therapy/voice surgery, and electrolysis. Not to mention the pain we all go through with these procedures that we may not have to endure as much with proper care at an early age. I cringe at what the next trans generations are going to face. The governor and his ilk, are typical of these super-majority R led states. Unless there is a huge change in the next 6 months, I am fearful of where things are heading. I feel like more bad stuff will unfold. I do not think they are done crucifying us.
