I’m still in bed. I normally would pick up kids at 6:30 AM. We then would arrive at The Farmhouse. Have breakfast and conversation. My trans daughter would tell me about her week. My son would also tell me about his day. Then we would go to church. They both work with the children there. All 3 services! Amazing kids! During first service I drive out and have myself a Peppermint Mocha. I then would do another chapter on my story and post it. Then return with kids for second service. Third service I either go to the creative team class when we have it or if it’s nice take a walk and pray. If it’s not my weekend I drop them off. I miss this time with them. Quarantine has taken away so many things. I work from home and miss my girlfriends at work. We would all have lunch and play word finds in one of my girlfriends tablets. I also miss one of the leads at the bank who always complimented me on my clothes. What do you guys miss?

What a great resurrection this spring has been.  If i focus on the beauty of spring instead of the dread of getting sick i've got more time to enjoy the world as it awakes from a winters sleep.  The goats all went out to pasture yesterday evening.  So sweet to see the mom's grazing on new green as the kids frolic in the glee of space and life.

 

Hugs,

The Easter Bunny (a.k.a. our awesome neighbours) was busy this morning.  We found a bunch of colourful plastic eggs along our driveway, with buttons and things inside appropriate to both me and my wife.

 

Happy Easter, everyone!

Kathy that was so sweet of them!  They are special!  

 

We will miss hiding plastic eggs for our granddaughters to hunt.  I sent my son and wife a montage of prior Easter photos last night.  He told me they will hid some eggs for the girls which is sweet.

 

Its sunny here and will rise to the low 60's.  Nice day to be out in the yard.

They are indeed wonderful neighbours, and we are truly lucky to have them next door.  They were the first people I came out to, after my wife, and they helped me get started on my road to transition.

I had thought about an Easter dress but ended up with jeans since I’m stuck at home.

I am not wearing an Easter dress, but I am wearing a skirt.  I find them more comfortable than pants, they look nicer, and it’s almost warm enough to wear one.  And, my recovery requires me to wear “loose clothing”.

I’m in grey girly fleece pants and a pink hoodie.  Black ball cap. It’s wig washing day and I hate it!   Lol

I do not own any dresses yet but have a few skirts. Though have not worn those since I don’t have shoes for them.  I need to go shopping to try on a few pairs so I can order some online.  I hate to order without knowing my size for sure.

I had one on this morning, but had to take it off and wear an everyday dress. My dog decided that I need to hold her and sit on my lap! She sheds like crazy and I don't want my good dresses messed up!

Wig what's that. Luckily I still have all my natural hair. Haven't had a major hair cut in 2 years. I love my natural curls.

 

when you finally shop for shoes. I figured out that if you add 2 to your male size you are in the ball park.

 

The wife and youngest went to visit my middle son and his family. So for a while it is just me and the wienie. Patrick our long hair dachshund. However he is on his pillow.

Nearly completed the first drawing (yay!).

Hope everyone had a nice day. Severe thunderstorms and hail have swept over the area off and on today.

Tonight it will get down to freezing and be cold for the next few days.

I wish you all a good night's rest and a beautiful morning to follow.

Sad sad day for me.

Today was to be the day I had my surgery for an Orchi.  As everyone knows surgeries were cancelled and no schedule dates given.

I'm quite upset over this today with the additional pain from the lump issue I have been crying about for months now. That my dog crushes yesterday evening jumping into my lap.  OMG I thought I was going to die.  I did cry and could not help myself it hurt so bad.  

 

I'm at work now but really do not have my heart in it.  Its rainy here today so its already a gloomy day for everyone.  However I am going to try and pull myself back up, help some people and have a nice day.

 

I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Shawna I’m sorry to hear that I hope this ends soon so you can get your surgery done. I know how bad it hurts I’ve had 4 surgeries down there over the years. Try and keep your chin up hon.

Hi

 

well the weatherman hit it n the nose.  8:30 and there has already been a tornado warning for near Charleston. Very windy lots of thunderstorms and occasional heavy rain. Not going to be a good morning.  A least the coffee is made.  
 

 Had planned a reveal for yesterday kind of a mini public coming out.  But obviously that didn’t happen.  
 

I’ll have to find another time.

A night of thunderstorms and tornadoes here.

Survived the night though.

Chugging coffee and "back to the drawing board!"

Good morning.

Hope you are safe from disease, storms, and violence today.  I will manifest positivity and keep my hands busy while maintaining bunker mode.  Willing to emerge if called upon.

      I don't know yet. I'm sure there is going to be a big crowd. I also would have to keep up with the kids and probably won't enjoy myself mostly. 
    • Ashley0616
      I can understand that. My Keurig is used for hot water mostly and when my mom comes. I mostly use a regular coffee maker. I have had that for 5 years now. I had a Bunn but it didn't last long. I also have a French press and rarely use that. I would love to get a cappuccino maker but that is for later on. Starbucks is getting expensive. My kids favorite thing there is the cake pops. I found out that Walmart Neighborhood Market has them. Typical me getting off topic. lol

      Well, welcome M.A. Several of my now grown kids were involved in theater in school.  And one is now a graphic designer.

      Wow what a busy day today.  Clearly the summer crowd is coming into town.  Doesn’t hurt that we have a PGA event here.  It is limited to 100 players. But the spectators is where the crowd is.   i alone more than doubled my usual sales.     we keep hearing thunderstorms however they are staying just west of us for now. The storms in western Tennessee right now are supposed to be here in the morning.

      Edit: Latest album is called "Drumless". My bad. The name of their tour is Drummer.

      My gen z cousin & her gf were visiting the last few days. We are a very, very small contingent of queer members of our family & we stick together. She and her gf introduced me to G Flip. They recently attended a concert and said it was the best concert ever. They were playing G Flip in the car and I was impressed by the vocals, the lyrics, the influences, and the percussion (G is also a drummer). I love a nonbinary vocalist (not that we get to hear so many...yet...) because the freedom from gender performance shines forth. I could hear influences from many styles of music I loved in the 90s, but all blended together in a joyfully percussive way. G Flip is rad! I would post a link to some tracks or an album, but there are explicit lyrics which would go against community rules - you can easily search youtube yourself if you're interested; their latest album is called "Drummer". But here is a picture of G who is serving us gorgeous nonbinary vintage Axl Rose!

      Welcome, @MAN8791. I relate to this so much. I'm roughly the same age as you, afab & nonbinary. For decades, I beat myself up for being a "broken" girl/woman. And I tried my darndest for many of those years to perform woman successfully. While outwardly I may have seemed "a success", inwardly the effort and dysphoria caused me so much anxiety, panic, and depression that it eventually became unsustainable. For me, the first step was letting go of identifying as "broken". Next, I allowed myself to be however I am. And very rapidly I felt better - in fact, initially I felt ecstatic. The door was open for me to really learn about self-love and therefore love itself.

      Well, the counter space in the kitchenette is pretty Limited. But also cost, and usefulness. I guess she is mostly right, and it isn't really important.

      "The Health and Human Services Grants Regulation (HHS Grants Rule) Final Rule protects LGBTQI+ people by clarifying and reaffirming the prohibition on discrimination on the basis of sex – including sexual orientation and gender identity – in specific health and human services programs, consistent with the Supreme Court decision in Bostock v.

      Wasn't sure whether to post this in the "uplifting news" or "news" forum. This bill is pro-LGBTQ+, albeit 30 some odd years too late with 100s of thousands of lives lost throughout the AIDS crisis. The upshot is that ol' Ron has actually done some good for the community. That's really...something...although I doubt he sees it that way. And most importantly, greater access to screening and care will save many lives.   https://ncpa.org/newsroom/qam/2024/05/01/floridas-governor-signs-bill-expand-hiv-care

      Both of my parents were raised in WASP-ish families. What was or wasn't appropriate, with an emphasise on superficial appropriateness (conformity) was verbally beaten into me the second I hit puberty.   Which is really sad as I think back, and was bewildering at the time. I remember being really free to be expressive how I wanted to and then once I started puberty, all of that freedom disappeared and I didn't understand, at all.
