Did you ever get that jacket we were all eyeing before Xmas?  IMG_9582.thumb.JPG.5e708f61c572d3739ca9db17ffe3848a.JPGI love mine but had to have the buttons reinforced, the thread holding them kept breaking. 

I tried mine on and discovered I needed two sizes larger than what was available.  I was so disappointed.  I really really wanted it.

Hi everyone. Hope everyone had a happy Monday. Nothing exciting happening here. Except I have a laser appointment tomorrow. My hr department sent me the fmla paperwork for my recovery time. I was going to do it but my employer thought I should. Fill it out. My boss told me today if I want to come in his office again I have to wear a hat. He has serious issues about my hair. He will really be shocked when he has a meeting with me and hr. For some reason the idea of getting married is on my mind and it’s kind of sad because I never got to be a bride. Or go to prom or be a bridesmaid. I just feel kind of depressed about the events I missed

Any hat? The fool! He may have sown the seeds of his own madness.

 

There's no reason you can't be a bridesmaid though. I mean find an unmarried friend that is getting married and boom! Probably too late for prom. I didn't go to mine either. Probably for the best, from all reports it was kind of 'meh.' On the other hand, if I'd been AFAB, I'd have torn the place UP.

 

Well, probably not. Lesbians still weren't cool in 1988. Statistically, there should have been 20 LGBT people in my graduating class. Including myself, I can identify three of them (and we were all, in hindsight, obvious choices). The other 17 remain a mystery.

 

Anyway, the point being that you're still young. You have lots of experiences ahead of you. Go out and enjoy them!

 

Hugs!

I bet that I would be one of the "mysteries" in my class. A football player and weight lifter? Now a girly girl!

Haha. My boss did give me the option of wearing a plastic bag over my head. I’d really like to get a pink hardhat. That’s what I should do I should show up with a pink hard hat lol.

While I do accessorize in pinks, don't forget the power of purple. Lavenders are good too. Don't limit yourself until you've tried all your options. Ooh, do they make hardhats in floral patterns?

These nice people are selling them... I have no idea what the designations mean. So... maybe?

I had a doctor appointment this morning. A week and a half ago, I tested positive for Covid. It only felt like a head cold. This time I tested negative. I can go back to work. All of you take care of yourselves! This seems to affect everyone differently! 

 

Chloe

I remember my time with covid very well and it was awful even in a mild form. I'm glad you're getting better. It was tough for me. My symptoms lasted almost a month but, lucky for me, my job screwed me over and I decided my time as an employee had come to an end. I don't miss them at all. I do miss working sometimes. I hated my job but, loved some of the people there. I am trying to decide what starting my own business might look like and wether I could make my vision come to life. My hopes for college have been dashed by divorce and bad luck. It seems good luck is eluding me at present.

 

Today I woke up to a freezing house and a broken furnace. Can't be fixed. I got a lot of years out of it though so at least there is that. The one day I really needed something to go right had to just prove me unworthy.?

Also, since I mentioned it yesterday, here are my newly painted nails. I just love this color, it's called "first kiss" by Karma Hues, they're based out of NJ and specialize in natural products. ❤️

 

Now the big decision remains - do I take the plunge and buy that skirt suit? Consensus here was positive!

Love the nails and the skirt suit plan. If it is something you like then I say indulge.

Of course you have to have steel toe slippers. I’m looking to see what I can do to make my work attire more feminine. I did find some cute lunch boxes too lol

It is kind of a pain my hard hat has to be msha rated and my mine light has to be msha approved. The light I have now was 400 dollars when I got it.

I have extra hat lamps in my office at work.  They light up pretty good. 

 

Oddly a pink hat almost outed me last week at work when I blurted out I'd wanted one when it was offered to the only girl in class.

@ElizabethStar Love the bunny slippers!

@Jackie C. And the pretty work hat!

 

This thread is blowing up tonight, I was idle for a while and it said "show 15 new posts?" when I came back. Hope everyone is having a lovely evening. Pretty quiet here, which is good, but it's the calm before the storm I fear. I'm expecting a crazy busy workweek with five days worth of tasks crammed into four because of the holiday today.

 

Also - ultimately, I *did* splurge and buy the suit! In navy blue. I hope it fits, even though my body lacks the curves to really make it work. It's how I'll feel wearing it that I really want to know...

 

Love,

~Audrey.

@AudreyCan't wait to see it, assuming all goes well.

 

My dumb ass (can I say that here?) inadvertently maybe outed myself to a customer today. We were talking about the service history on his account when I just had to say "Yeah, I remember from the last time I was there". Grant it, it was a few years ago but pre-HRT. I did manage kept moving through the conversation without missing a beat and side-stepped it when he mentioned me by my dead name as being his favorite tech. He's probably scratching his head right now trying to figure out when a woman came out and serviced his account.

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!

      What one piece of advice would you give to beginning transitioners or considering transition?

      Positive side of the mixed bag.

      Boredom is an emotional state that comes when a person has nothing to do, and is not interested in anything. To stop boredom, most people do something to occupy or amuse themselves. The first known use of the word boredom is in the novel Bleak House by Charles Dickens, written in 1852, but the saying to be a bore had been used to mean "to be tiresome or dull" since 1768. When referring to the mind, boredom is a bad state in which the person feels a deep lack of interest in what is going on around them, and where it is hard to focus.
