Good morning everyone, 

 

The coffee is brewing. The cats and I are the only ones up at this hour, 07:30 EDT.

I’ve been working out of town through the week for the past three weeks. So most of my communication with my Suzie have been phone calls. During our last call, she said she spent a lot of money on Fall clothing. She’s returning at the end of this month and will be dressing way more casual. She said that one good thing about the clothing haul was the Shirts and Sweaters would fit us both. She the mentioned we should make a third hanging rack in our closet for the things we share. Then when I got home she was quick to show them to me. This is movement in the right direction for acceptance and I’m pleased with it.

 

This is my favorite time of the year, I just love Fall and all Fall activities, clothing choices, and reduced temperatures. While my weight is still dropping, I still sweat like the nearly 300 pound person I use to be. 
 

Best wishes and hugs for everyone,

 

Mindy??️‍⚧️???‍?

Anyone know of a temporary cloning device. I need to make a couple clones, so I can get some work done. not only at home but at work too. I think 6 would do nicely.

Just make sure you don't clone any of the clones - that never works out well!

Good morning everyone,

 

It’s been a rainy Fall weekend here in central Indiana. 
 

The coffee is HOT, black, and strong, without being bitter. Breakfast will be simple and use minimal dishes. 
 

 Best wishes, stay positive, and safe.

My first music post since my earlier  departure.

The song is Thumb. Followed by Put the Thumb on me Me.

 

Some here may think it is about them, I will tell you it is about women's rights.

I know I'm very old, but I'm just not ready to give it up.

The video is 1980's grunge style, I dressed for it. 

Hope some enjoy, and as always

Love❤️

Had a good day today. Went to a plant nursery and got a pic of a male Monarch. Thanks to an earlier post, I now can tell the difference.

When I lived back in Missouri, I had a 40 acre farm, boarded horses, and sold rabbits, chickens, and eggs. At one time we had over 200 birds free ranged, and they were conditioned to feed at the clapping of my hands. When people wanted to see or pet any of the birds, all I would have to is clap my hands and a chicken stampede would ensue. We sold them live or freshly processed, while you wait.

 

 I loved my Chicken Ranch, but taking a better position in the company I worked for required me to sell everything and move to Indy.

 

Hug,

Good morning Rachel,

 

My coffee and breakfast were delayed this morning, because I had a 07:15 blood draw, for my annual physical.

As I'm typing, the coffee is brewing, and the teapot is warming up some water for my instant oats.

 

Hugs for everyone, make it a great day.

I've never had chickens, I did have chicken pox when I was young. Does that count? ?.

Coffee was good, town chores done. Rainy day, now my problem.

I have been off of hard drugs since 1987. I have not smoked pot since 1999, what a year that was, finished so to speak.

 

Well when I went off the deep end (you seen it) my wife enlisted some help. Well my problem is I told her I'm fine now, I'm going to quit the med.  Well my wife with all her tattoos and that little finger pointing at me, and she says, like hell you are!!!

(I'm thinking, gosh, was I that bad of a person for the last 20 years?). 

So anyway I tell her I just won't buy anymore. Well she points out to me...I got the number butt head, you ain't going to quit, you are finally back again. So what is the problem?

I realized the problem was me. I have not felt this happy in over 20 years. I don't know how to deal with being happy, but I'm learning real fast. 

 

I don't know where I'm going here at the moment, I do know I came in here too fast the last time I was here. 

I do hope to do better this time around.

LM❤️

That sounds amazing @Mmindy. Would have been quite a sight to see all those chickens heading your way.

It's a bit sad you had to move for work and lose all those little beaks.

@mindy Darn, My grandfather had a farm and chickens, does that count? \

I mean like really, gosh, how else do you get chicken pox?

@AgnesBardsie Lol! Give Sargeant Schnauzer a hug for me. ?

 

Beautiful photo @Jamie68. It is cool to know your model was a male. ☺️

 

@LindaMarie what you're saying resonates. Happiness eluded me for most of my life from early on, and in the past when I had glimpses of it, they were immediately followed by a manic compulsion to force them to endure artificially by means of chemistry, or by a period of lament during which I was acutely aware of the dearth of genuinely happy memories I had collected. Somehow, I had an instinct that being deficient in experiencing happiness and contentment would perpetuate my inability to experience real enduring joy in the future. This may seem defeatist, but there is some truth to it - when we're used to chaos, it does take willingness, effort, and persistence to learn how to allow ourselves to be happy - to metabolize this new feeling / way of being. I just wanted to acknowledge that what you shared is understandable & relatable, and I'm glad to hear you have a supportive partner and that you're learning.

Good morning everyone.

Things have been pretty quiet in my world. Well, except for the chickens.

 

I've been struggling a bit with something my therapist said. It's not about me but about my partner. The cliff-notes: When I was booking accommodations I had to consider if the places would be safe for me to stay. The easy answer would have been to find lgbt friendly places. Not a problem since "gay" resorts do exist but when the promo pictures show guys, guys and more (potentially gay) guys, it's a bit of a turn off for the both of us. So I opted more for the ones that were more low-key and would just be happy to take our money and not treat us like trash. Back to the therapist thing....  So when I mentioned it to him, he got a strange kind of defensive and started suggesting my partner is homophobic. I know she is OK with the lgbt community but she never asked to be a participating member. I feel as though my therapist is pushing for us to be out there flying lesbian and trans pride flags even though it's not our thing and we just want the quiet life. I don't want the world to look at me as a trans woman but rather just as a woman. Anyways, there's a lot more to the issues but I feel it's time for a new therapist.

Yeah, it sounds like it. I hear they are hard to find. I got lucky. My doctor referred me to one of his patients, and She made room for me.

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      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."
