Glad that justice is being done.  I can feel a bit of your relief... probably more intense than my feelings at the guilty verdict last month.  Hopefully the sentencing hearing will bring you some closure.

Like @awkward-yet-sweet, I'm glad you got justice. I hope you and your brother's speaking out get this jerk put away for life. In solitary confinement.

That's good news Heatherd, I'm so proud of you for standing up and going to and through the Justice System, pressing charges. I hope you are relived by the future sentencing, and can feel safe again when you're out and about. 

 

Hugs,

I have noticed that this once popular thread has gone almost stagnate.  Remember this is a social thread one were you can talk to friends. The same as sitting together having a cup of what ever you want. It is open to anybody who wants to post. 

 

I have seen that some haven't been around lately, @Bri2020 and @Elizabeth Starto name two.  have disappeared I hope that they are doing alright. However I also hope that they didn't just up and leave. Having achieved their goal and don't need our friendship.  Both me and @Willow have seen that  happen before. 

 

Have a good day everyone.

Good morning everyone

 

@heatherd I’m so glad the slow wheels of Justice Turned in the correct direction in your case.  We hear so many times that some one just gets a slap on the wrist and does it again.

 

Like @KymmieLsaid, she and I have noticed a bit of a slow down in posts.  Some long time posters have moved on and some new ones have taken their place.  And that’s a good thing.  We want this to evolve.  Kymmie created this for everyone to know they have friends and a place for conversation.  We talk about anything and everything as long as it doesn’t break the TransPulse rules.

 

Yes, it seems to be normal for people to achieve their goals and move away from groups.  I have a good friend that hasn’t been to a group meeting in a year.  I have seen her, because we stopped at their home last fall.  And I hate to admit it but I am not going to be going to the adult group much either.  However, that’s in large part because it costs too much for me to make two 150 mile trips a month and I’d much rather go to work with the teens.  And because of the increasing violence In Wilmington.

 

I suppose we each have limited time to spend writing about the many things we all have going on, and there are so many good forums here that have more specific topics.  Just remember to come here and say hi to your friends and have a beverage with us.  We are always here to comfort and console you, or share a joke or just sat “Hi old friend!”  @KymmieL created this for that very purpose.  This is your forum.  Use it.

 

hugs and love

Good morning everyone,

 

I'm back from my six month dental check up, and everything is good. The Dentist even noticed that I must have given up cigars now for a couple of years. She said she could see the change in my tongue and soft pallet. She also knows that I won't be giving up my coffee,:coffee: so the staining process is still a battle for her. I'm still working in the back yard cleaning up and making ready for Spring.

 

This coming Saturday morning my wife and I are heading to New Orleans, LA for a week of vacation. We're checking out the historical south, as well as several Civil War Battlefields. On the return trip we'll be stopping in Vickburg, MS for a couple of days. Then it's off to Nashville, TN and a Saturday Night at the Grand Ole Opry. I'll be checking in on my phone, and seeing hope people here are doing.

 

Hugs,

Hi @Jamey-Heather.  Nice to see you.

 

@Mmindy  that sounds like an interesting trip.  I’ve never been to either state. Actually I’m down to

about 10 I haven’t been to yet.  And I don’t mean stopped in an airport but spent at least an hour.  I’ve also been to the majority of the US territories.  Just not American Samoa although I spent several hours in Samoa and in Okinawa and I don’t know that I’ve stepped foot in Guam.  I think we will try to close out Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee and Arkansas, then Minnesota and Wisconsin this summer.  That leaves me with Alaska.  Places in Canada I’d like to go are Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.

G'Day @Jamey-Heather I hope all is well with you and yours. I love that this forum has a global reach.

 

@WillowI've spent time in all of the lower 48 states thanks to Fire Departments, State Police, and Emergency Management. aka Homeland Security. Oh and I can't leave out our Armed Forces, they had us in for Base Management and Hazardous Materials Response to Bulk Deliveries. We always managed to see some local sites while traveling around teaching. Now I'm taking my wife to the most interesting locations. We hope to add Alaska, and Hawaii, completing all 50 states for me. I've also been to several locations in Mexico, and Canada when I was a Safety Manager for a Chemical Tank Truck Company. We're also looking into the British Isles, Dunkirk, and Normandy in France.

 

Well today's yard 👩‍🌾 work was enough exercise for a couple of days. They're calling for rain and high winds tonight. Saturday we return to normal February Winter Weather. 

 

Hugs,

Bri is busy with her new business as a realator on top of her existing business and profoundly busy social life (we're Facebook buds). I don't know about Liz. She's probably busy with her polycule if the other polycules I know are anything to go by, but I very much wish her well.

 

Hugs!

Just checking in with an update. Surgery went awesome. (Zero depth vaginoplasty). Took 6 hours. They were amazed that I didn't need any pain meds during recovery. Healing quickly. Rush University is a great place. Rented a studio apartment style at Hyatt House. Only one block from hospital. I walked there to doctor visits. Got to stay at hotel for recovery instead of going to skilled nursing facility. The only downside of the whole experience was that I ended up getting c.diff. doing much better now. Thanks for all your kind words. By the way, my surgeons were Dr Loren Schechter and Dr Brielle Weinstein (she/her). Both awesome. 💜

Hi y’all

 

Long day. Left at 7:30am met with my endocrinologist about 10:30  He was happy with me for all the care I am taking of myself.  Pleased that I started mammograms.  He said he usually waits 5 years on hrt but at my age and with all the testing I’ve been doing he thinks it was a good idea.  
 

we talked about body changes thus far. Body hIR, lol but completely gone not even underarm.  Breast growth, not much but nipple changes. All in all a good visit. 
 

then I picked up some water shoes I’d ordered.  I think even though they Say womens, but I think they are actually men’s sizes.   Way too big.

 

got home about 3 after a stop at Ulta for some facial treatment and a new lipstick.  We share these things.  Finally, we went out to dinner with friends and neighbors.  And got home again about 7pm.

 

definitely tired after a long day.

Thanks 😊

Well TGIF

 

Today the rain begins. 2 ½ inches over the next three days.  Good news/bad news the coastal land here is pretty flat and sandy.  Good news no mudslides. Bad news flooding can and does happen as the rain water tries to get to the ocean.  At least I have flood insurance.  I figured being on the first floor and close as I am to the swimming pool that might not be a bad idea.

 

Worst part is taking the dog out.

 

Yes @KymmieL I do realize it’s not your Friday.  But on the other hand it doesn’t really matter to me what day of the week it is, the only difference it makes is taking my injection and appointments. Boy is auto correct stupid I had appointments written out perfectly and it decided I meant appreciates and changed it.

 

well we had a nocturnal visitor. Walked by checking cars to break into. My neighbor shared ring video of someone peering in to cars and checking door handles.

That is one thing about being retired.  It kinda takes some getting used to.  "3 Day Weekends" mean nothing to me anymore.

I have my phone set up to remind me when to change my titty tape.  I would forget otherwise.

Oh, I gave up the days of the week long ago. Its just another day. just like any and all Holidays they are just a day. nothing special.  I thank uncle sugar for that.

 

As for your complexes night time visitor(s) I don't know anyone on goddesses green earth that doesn't know the sound of a 12 gauge be racked. I miss the old days when you could give a trespasser a load of rock salt.

      I went to WM today with the objective of buying sandals: they would be women's, but look like men's; they would be brown or black, not white.  I realized the cheapest way to go  was to go for flip-flops, which I observed were prevalent in the store. So I checked out the women's.  Flowers. White shiny straps. Nothing that could possibly be men's. The best deal was one flip flop for $3.98.  At first I thought that was a pair, then, nope.  And because I comparison shop (is there the same thing in men's?) I found the cheapest over there was $6.98 for a pair of flip flops in green that also match my women's cargo shorts that I love.  Doing the math, finding the pink tax.  Rip off.  I have found a blue tax this way, but usually they charge women more for something than they do men. I guess women tend to lose one flip flop at a time or something. Weird.  The pairs were a lot higher.   So, following my rule, but unhappy with it, I bought the green men's flip flops.  They were the cheapest.  Later wife of mine complimented how masculine I look in my matching shorts and flip-flops.  Inward groan. We have not discussed the Subject in a long time because I think she forgets it is there as soon as the conversation ends.  Or she is trying to talk me out of this.  Not sure.  We only discuss it when necessary, and how often do most couples discuss whether one spouse is one sex or the other? Outside of here, I mean.  So we very seldom talk about it and she is happier if she does not know about it. Super stealth.  I do the laundry and I shower in the shower in the wing away  from the master bed room so I have my own shower.

      I'm very glad that everything worked out even better than you thought. It's a tough spot to be in and I know the exact feelings. I'm still waiting to apply for divorce under abandonment so I officially can meet someone who one day I can call someone my prince or my queen. Although the desire for someone is fading because of everything. it's even more amazing that she was your high school sweetheart! Looking forward to the next entry.

      Awww thanks for listening everyone. I have another 5-6 songs in this style that I started recording at the same time, so hopefully I’ll finish the next release soon.   Yes, exactly. Everything was easier about this project, mainly because it felt authentic. The energy was very different, because it was such a pleasure to express myself without a filter. I laughed a lot.

      Thanks for listening @Mmindy.   You’re welcome @April Marie. I think Sally Can’t Dance is an underrated album.

      Well I had an interview with the local Ford Dealership for an opening in the parts dept. It sounded positive. I was told I would here by tomorrow morning.    Other than that just sticking around the house. I haven't done much, the weather is cold and yucky. Doesn't look like good weather till Sunday. Maybe tomorrow I'll fire up the heater in the garage and see about getting the other brake hose put on the Explorer.   Have a good rest of your day/evening.   Hugs, Kymmie

      Maybe they called me he/him at the dealership because I completely forgot my mascara! Eyeliner without mascara…a bold new trend among the helplessly lost! :)   Fixed that!

      Ah. Email from Gibson. [it was actually less legible than this, as he didn't use punctuation, it was all caps, and he ran all his words together. Taylor was used to it.   T - As everyone was under my super. this last year, don't worry about the evals. I will handle it. Send all email about new proposals to me, your unit handles work under way.  You will be involved but the first step is those go to me. Thanks   Here is an outline of what questions I want to see answered tomorrow.  Feel free to just jot down your thoughts.  If you don't know, say so and maybe point to how we can find that out............   Your new position will seem very challenging for a while but I am sure you can handle it.  Everyone has the utmost confidence in you.   PS your performance evaluation will be stellar, as reflected in your new position and compensation.  You get 100. One less thing to worry about.   Taylor sent him 45 emails right after that, gave some thought to the questions, and then had to turn to one of the proposals under way and review it.  That done, she read through the personnel files on her people so she would better understand them and what they could do. There was a very thin folder with her name on it.  It had one piece of paper on it. On it was written "the best!".  The others were thicker but didn't take long either, and she returned to answering the questions.
