 It's a beautiful mornin'
I think I'll go outside a while,
An just smile.
Just take in some clean fresh air, boy
Ain't no sense in stayin' inside
If the weather's fine and you got the time.
It's your chance to wake up and plan another brand new day.

 

Cool, a bit windy but sunny and clear.  What a great day to be alive even if my dysphoria is running rampant right now.  Really feeling the need to take another step forward.  Good thing I have an appointment with my therapist this week.

Another great day today was. Not only coming out to my wife but just being able to enjoy. Just waiting for my evening coffee, now.

Good morning all. I was up early this morning, coffee and breakfast over all before 8.  It used to be daily, but I am getting lazy these days :D

Well chilly here so the coffee is good and warming. Still on the high from yesterday of a totally understanding and supportive wife. Although dreading work today. as it is our annual inventory, which will totally suck rotten apples. As management I will be doing discrepancies. Oh joy

 

Have a great day, all.

 

Hugs,

Hi everyone!  Another beautiful day here.  No breeze, perfect blue sky.  Birds are singing.  Coffee was good this morning as it got a little chilly overnight.  I had to toss a a quilt on the bed.  

 

Kymmie i I don’t envy you taking inventory I had over 40 years of inventories.  Some went well, some didn’t .  Mostly clerical errors that I had to find and fix.

Good morning everyone. I'm drinking my extra large coffee as I wait for my wife's doctors appointment to end. I just got back from a week away in Provincetown, Massachusetts at Fantasia Fair. I had a great time and connected with some new friends. Today is day 14 of my new phase of life. I am so grateful I am living full time as my authentic self. It's great to be me! 

Enjoy your day! 

Hugs & Smiles

CONGRATS, Julie.

 

Hoping one day I will make it where you are. First hurdle is done. but the race is far from over. Have my last session with one of my counselors today. She is moving out of town. She has started a referral so I can continue to see a gender specialist. Maybe get on HRT. ?

 

Hugs all

Julie, A little off topic. Being from London, ONT. CA. I wonder if you know of a little town (May not be so little anymore) south of London Called, Lambeth?

Good morning Kymmie. I live five minutes from Lambeth. It is now part of London. It has grown a bit but is still small. It was annexed into London a number of years ago. 

 Now I'm going to have a quick shower then head over to Archie's restaurant on Wellington Rd for breakfast on my own. It's time all the girls met Julie. They have great coffee there.

Well i'm about to get a second cup.  Happy birthday Gizmo.  Best to Julie enjoy Archie's.  Enjoy the Alps RGA.  I used to love Earl Grey.

The plumbing was frustrating.  Fixed one leak.....found another so i never made the woods.  Hopefully today i'll be down there setting up for sugar season.  A year of branches breaking as well as time itself makes for a great many repairs.  

 

Hugs,

Good morning everyone had my one cup for the day.  Another fine day here.  Hard to believe a few short weeks ago we were having a hurricane followed by flooding.

I usually go through a couple of pots of coffee in the morning (small carafe's). 

 

Rained a little over night here, Indian summer has faded, we had a nice dry spell and warm afternoons, very nice, still nice fall colors here, the wind expected with the next system will drop and scatter many leaves.

 

Enjoy your day everyone.

Just finished enjoying my breakfast at Archie's in London, Ontario. ?

I'm texting to say that the wonderful waitresses who have known me as male for most of the past 28 years are not only accepting, they are very happy for me. I'm feeling pretty good about coming and introducing them to the new and improved me! Now to finish my 5th coffee and then go shopping!

This is me enjoying another 1st... breakfast at a well know, familiar breakfast haunt for my wife and I. She'll have an interesting breakfast next time she's in.

Well the thermometer outside shows a cold 48. So coffee is a must this AM. Working today, closing . Ugh. Luckily on Nov 4 we start closing at 8.

 

Julie, reason I asked. My grandparents lived in Lambeth. On the street leading to the Ice rink. On the top of the hill.

You are looking better than me early morning Julie. Well breakfast over, now for some art!

hi,  I've been awake for hours today.  Much earlier than normal.  You see today is the third anniversary (if you can call it that) of the death of my 7 year old Granddaughter.  She died from Childhood Cancer/Brain tumor.  She managed to fight for 18 months, through 3 brain surgeries, Chemo, Proton radiation, standard radiation and still a tumor that has a high cure success rate became very aggressive in her case.  she was finally accepted into an experimental treatment with the caution that it had been known to be both good and bad 50-50.  She was in the bad group.  we had 8 more weeks with her.

 

For all of you that see the advertisements asking for support for St Judes, I would like to share with you one simple fact.  They had the doctor with the highest success rate for her type of cancer and yet couldn't even be bothered to answer my daughters letters and pleas for help.  The rest of what they say about never paying them is true but honestly that is not typically the parents main concern, they just want their child to live.

 

It's going to be a tough day around here, good thing I already have a therapy appointment.

      Over here muttering about "a new Jim Crow against a persecuted minority."    
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
    • Ivy
      Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all.  Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable.  I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk.  So that "F" is lie, and a fraud.  My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good.   I'm just frustrated these days.  Just a bit of a rant.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      You probably remember the Target PR fiasco.  I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there.  She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again.

      Nothing about eradicating TG folk. 
    • Ivy
      If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me).  That seems suicidal.
    • Ivy
      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far... 
    • EasyE
      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.
