It just gets frustrating sorry about the rant.

Emily,

 

No need to apologize! Most people don't think before they open their mouths. Not to mention that they are probably projecting some BS in their own mind! Sorry you have to endure that crap. You don't deserve that and it hurts.  Take care of yourself! 

Hugs,

Kay

Finally my day is done lol. I had 3 people comment on my hair today and not in good

Emily: That's B.S.! I'd like to have been there to kick him right where it counts! I'm thinking that you probably took the high road and didn't dignify it with a response. H8ers will keep on H8ing. This is getting old, watching violence and unkindness against transwomen. I really, really dislike unkind people. 

 

I think that your new pic looks awesome! You should be proud of it!

Stressful Day. It always seems that my teenagers at some point in the visit a fight breaks out. I guess I don’t remember fighting with my brothers but I suppose I did. We started off with a trip to Sonic. Then we went to my apt where we watched Player One. Carter played on his Nintendo Switch. He wanted a game. Carter recently turned 16 and got cash so he said he would pay me back. We head to Walmart and it’s raining Carter wants a hoody. I buy her one. Caden and Carter want some cookies. I let them have some. Carter finds the game he wants. I only get 1 to 7. I ask ex for an additional hour she agrees. We go home and watch Waverly Place. Before Walmart kids get into a fight over Caden almost stepping on Carter’s controller. I split up the fight. Have the time with teens you don’t know if they are actually fighting or just rough housing. Carter starts to cry so it got real. Anyway. We had a good time and that’s all that matters. I drop them off and I will see them tomorrow. I’m taking a nice hot bubble bath to calm my nerves. I don’t know why I’m so scared to go to a store. The kids aren’t at all. I love them very much. Carter is 16 but she must not get much affection at home. He will sit next to me and put his feet over me. Is this ok with a teen? Anyway. I will be starting therapy free sessions on Monday. I talked to my mom today and she is being very understanding. We talked about my childhood. 
 

Anyway. I just love that I can share my day with you. This morning I walked over a mile just dancing and singing to my music! I didn’t care who was watching. It felt so good! 
 

Good night ladies. 
 

Love 

 

Tessa

Don't worry about it, it took me some time to find it as well!

 

At the top right of each forum page, if you click on your user name, you should see Account Settings as an option, click on this, then you should see an option to change your signature. Be sensible with size and colours of text/images etc. ?

I think your hair looks GREAT, Emily!  wish I had hair like yours. 
I find when others have something negative to say, its usually because they have unhappiness in their own lives.

So, say a little prayer for them .. and Stay Strong!

You ever have one of those days where your having a nice breakfast with your roommate now ex wife and it turns into an all day long gripefest on every issues you both had over 12+years???  
Like every bad conversation or mistake either one of you ever said or did or not do. All the hurt or frustration and pain that was caused or felt.

Yea that was my day yesterday. 
 

Though as our lives start to slowly separate this needed to happen and the air is now clean between us. 


today?

like nothing was ever said.  Sigh

 

but I have coffee at least

Thank you ladies for the compliments your so sweet. That’s my wig I’d die to have hair that long but I’m working on it. My hair is about 3in. Long in the middle. I’m hoping to be able to start styling it into a pixie before long and continue letting it grow.

I took the high road it was my boss that made that comment so I just laughed it off and let it go. It does get very messed up after taking a hard hat on and off then sweating, but it doesn’t justify all the comments I got. I guess I better get used to it I can only imagine what would be said if I get my ears pierced.

 

If kymmie can get you to Missouri I can pick up from there and keep heading east haha. We just need one of metal birds then we can get there quicker.

I woke up to a dream I was protecting my children from an invasion. They were young in my dream. The weird thing is it wasn’t bullets it was bowing arrows that were flying in the house. We all went into the closet. I know in real life they don’t feel loved by their mom and she will stay at her boyfriends most of the day. Even though Carter is 16 he still wants mom to recognize him and spend time with him. She refuses and hangs up the phone. She is a very selfish woman. This is when my kids cry out to me. I don’t have much to give them. I seem to get upset with him when he wants a little attention because he goes all about it in the wrong way. I need to pick up on the signs. Caden is very smart and will talk your ear off! But if you don’t listen he gets mad and will feel rejected. The oldest one I’ve not seen in a long time now. 
 

Today will just stay home and watch Waverly Place and movies. Tried board games but their not always interested. It’s hard with teens. They both know about Tessa but I don’t dress like a girl in front of them. Mom has told Caden if I did he is to report this. Even though I don’t dress up my actions and my emotions show higher than a man’s. I need to be able to give them the love they need in an appropriate way. I have to work on my emotions because they can get strong and I get frustrated easily. I know I would give up everything to be with them. This is where I’m weak but if your children are all you really have wouldn’t you do the same? 
 

I feel my man side wants to protect them and my mother side wants to heal the wounds my ex has inflicted. In my dream I took out an arrow but it turned out to be a giant hole in the wall! They have holes in their heart that need to be filled by a Daddy and Mommy. I have to be both. As I work on myself I have to remember they are hurting to. 
 

Life is hard and lonely for me right now but it’s also hard and lonely for them. I can’t be selfish with my time. Time is all we have. I would gladly pay for the game he bought but by making him pay it shows responsibility and a sense of being. When everything is handed to you you forget your sense of freedom. Carter needs that in his life. I’m trying to be responsible here. 
 

Any advise is well appreciated or compliments. 
 

Love 

 

Tess

Emily, Patti Ann did say she would walk. That wig looks fabulous. I did have my natural hair that long but cut it. now about 1/2 in.?  I am going to grow it back. Darn it all I loved my hair.

It is even worse. my wife said I still don't believe you are stopping even cutting your hair. Should have told me sooner. Yeah, I am stopping when pigs fly.

 

66 forecast today. Got to work on getting the new(used) header panel on the wifes new car. She has been stripping her old car. Going to call the junk yard tomorrow.

 

Have a good day all of you.

Patti Anne is not allowed to walk that far. It would take to dang long. She is flying out when I’m ready to move and we are planning a cross country road trip back to her house.
Im hoping we can meeting up with as many of our friends from TP on the way!  
So more info to come on this plan as it’s developed !❤️❤️?

We could make posters and wave when she walks by. I’d even buy the shoes lol but riding or flying sounds better. It amazes me how people think we can flip it on and off like a switch maybe someday your wife and kids will see you can’t stop.

It’s really sad and shocking how they don’t understand even after it’s been throughly explained to them.  It’s not a choice.  It’s who you were born to be. 
The only choice we have is to hide. Or not.  
Seriously, what kind of a choice is that?  To not be your true self for the sake or others?!?!

No ma’am not this chick!

This chick can’t do it anymore either if I do I don’t think I will be around much longer. I far too happy being a woman then to keep hiding.

Good morning all,

 

I'm a huge Birdfeeder & Bird Watcher. 

The Sun has risen, worm, vampires, and zombies are scared. 

My coffee is hot, strong and black.

My movement is slow and deliberate.

 

One of the reasons I love bird watching is, I'm doing it up close (on the patio or front window feeders) and you must remain quiet. My family always knew if I was in either location my silence was not ignoring them. They could always join me by just being quite. My quiet time, is my time for calming, maybe even conscious day dreaming.

 

I wish I could >HUG< everyone of you,

If I truly tried I would not be around long either. It is hard saying it. I asked my wife,  would she rather have a dead husband or a  live spouse.  She responded dead husband.  That really  hurt. I am not going to kill myself to make her happy. 

 

Hugs

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."

      I have read some of it, mostly in areas specifically targeted at the LGBTQ+ peoples.   You also have to take into account what and who is behind the words, not just the words themselves. Together that creates context, right? Let's take some examples, under the Department of Health & Human Services section:   "Radical actors inside and outside government are promoting harmful identity politics that replaces biological sex with subjective notions of “gender identity” and bases a person’s worth on his or her race, sex, or other identities. This destructive dogma, under the guise of “equity,” threatens American’s fundamental liberties as well as the health and well-being of children and adults alike."   or   "Families comprised of a married mother, father, and their children are the foundation of a well-ordered nation and healthy society. Unfortunately, family policies and programs under President Biden’s HHS are fraught with agenda items focusing on “LGBTQ+ equity,” subsidizing single-motherhood, disincentivizing work, and penalizing marriage. These policies should be repealed and replaced by policies that support the formation of stable, married, nuclear families."   From a wording perspective, who doesn't want to protect the health and well-being of Americans or think that families aren't good for America? But let's take a look at the author, Roger Severino. He's well-quoted to be against LGBTQ+ anything, has standard christian nationalist views, supports conversion therapy, etc.   So when he uses words like "threatens the health and well-being of children and adults alike" it's not about actual health, it's about enforcing cis-gendered ideology because he (and the rest of the Heritage Foundation) believe LGBTQ+ people and communities are harmful. Or when he invokes the family through the lens of, let's just say dog whistles including the "penalization of marriage" (how and where?!), he idealizes families involving marriage of a "biological male to a biological female" and associates LGBTQ+ family equity as something unhealthy.   Who are the radical actors? Who is telling people to be trans, gay, or queer in general? No one. The idea that there can be any sort of equity between LGBTQ+ people and "normal" cis people is abhorrent to the author, so the loaded language of radical/destructive/guise/threaten are used. Families that he believes are "good" are stable/well-ordered/healthy, specifically married/nuclear ones.   Start looking into intersectionality of oppression of non-privileged groups and how that affects the concept of the family and you will understand that these platitudes are thinly veiled wrappers for christian nationalist ideology.   What's wrong with equity for queer families, to allow them full rights as parents, who are bringing up smart and able children? Or single mothers who are working three jobs to get food on plates?

      Well yesterday didn't work like I wanted to. I met a guy and started talking and he was wanting to be in a relationship. I asked my kids on how they thought of me dating a man and they said gross and said no. I guess it's time to look for women. I think that is going to be harder. Oh well I guess.
