Things are looking much better, it’s been a week and one day since surgery and now that I can unwrap my face all day the bruising is going away fast. I’d send you a picture from today except I held the camera back a little too far and have way too much cleavage for a public image! I’ll have to try to do better tomorrow, I put on 5 pounds while recovering, as it’s not a good idea to diet and if you’re going to heal well and heal quickly you need lots of water, lots of balanced carbs and proteins, and lots of rest. I’ll work on getting those five or 10 pounds back off but the picture I took this morning definitely shows How easy it is to go to chubby girl status without trying! 

 Hugs, 

 Jackie

Heal quickly dear.  You look like you've been in a fight but i can see the woman in you won.  That guy is going to be much less bothersome now.  You'll deal with the weight as you can.

 

Hugs,

Thank you girls, I do feel a lot better even though my forehead still feels like it’s wrapped, I guess the skin is so tight against my forehead and the sides of my face that I’m still feeling it. It’s kind of funny, it’s actually quite a facelift, I talked with the surgeon and she took the staples and stitches out of my head as she confirmed that I did indeed receive a standard upper half face lift and I could not be more pleased with having realized that a good solid 10 years has been taken off the top of my face!

 It’s pretty darn cool, didn’t realize I was going to get a facelift on top of FFS, too bad I can’t convince them to do the bottom half of my face as well, although I am very much considering at some point paying for that one down the road !

I need to take a new picture, it’s still a little bruising but a lot of the swelling is down, here’s a picture from day 8 after FFS

Getting better day by day, I can see a good looking gal surfacing. As the swelling continues to go down, the purple will go to greenish yellow then be gone revealing the beautiful woman that has always been there hiding under the surface. ?Just a little flirt for you sweetheart!

You still look fantastic.

Pretty sure it was just me being careless. I'm almost sure I would have noticed if anyone was lurking in my cramped little study with me. At least the cat would have looked up. I am humbled by my ineptitude but raised up again by your understanding and, hopefully, forgiveness.

 

Hugs!

      Good morning coffees   This probably doesn’t exactly apply to me because you wouldn’t have found a more shy and conservative person than me.  I was perhaps less shy before my sister started complaining about me doing things that were hers to do. And I would become embarrassed and that was the end of that.   upstairs unit got their typical weekend visitors in the middle of the night last night.  They woke me up.  They have little consideration for being in a condo community and the neighbors being in such close proximity.   @awkward-yet-sweet , how goes the job with your husband’s boss?  I don’t recall you saying much about it this week, but I could have missed a post along the way.  If I recall you were supposed to meet with him last Monday.   @KymmieL I hope you are feeling better.     Yes, I find it to be wrong that just because a car part says Ford or Chevrolet on the box that same part with Lincoln or Cadillac on the box cost a lot.more.  I know there are differences in the upscale brands such as the engine and drivetrain in the Caddy and of course the interior fit and finish.  But it’s the same body with things crammed in the same way under the hood.     well, time to finish my coffee, fix my hair and made my way across the street to work.    willow

      I read about her this morning. What a shame! She was beautiful and it seems she had a strong support system in place and could have had a wonderful life all to have it end like this. Such a waste. I truly hope the monster that killed her gets everything he deserves.

      They’re not going to stop anytime soon either. Tighten your belts folks were in for a long ride.

      I am so glad you enjoy them as well. The help things “stay put” so well. It got me through some of my most dysphoric times.   Wow, I hadn’t heard this at last week’s Zoom meeting if you had mentioned it. That is a huge milestone April Marie.I have no doubt that this confidence will only grow in time. The freedom of being yourself, especially in public, is a wonderful feeling. I am truly happy for you.😘   *Big Congratulatory Hug* Susan R🌷

      @Abigail Genevieve, that is not an appropriate question, IMO.  This isn't the Army/McCarthy hearings.   Carolyn Marie

      Don't think Americans would go for the "compulsory" part. We kind of like not being told what to do ... Amazingly, there is great pushback on voter ID laws. The opponents say it discourages voting, especially among the poor and minorities. That is really a smokescreen IMO for those who want to harvest ballots from as many places as possible, including folks who don't exist or don't hold citizenship...

      Pretty soon I think I might be ready to talk about gender-affirming care for kids, possibly w/r/t the Cass Review and its shortcomings.
    • KayC
      She was a beautiful young woman ...   "What we do know is that the offender was a very violent individual and should not have been on our streets.”  Whether gender related or not, the mental health and incarceration issues in our country are incredibly bad and need to be addressed.

      April,   I'm glad my entries are interesting to you.  TransCentralPA is a great organization with so many caring people.  I would strongly recommend you find a way to attend the Keystone Conference.  I guarantee you'll find it an amazing experience.     Hugs,   Sally

      Dear @Sally Stone.  I think you should author a memoir based on these posts (maybe you're already working towards that?).  You could decide at a later time if/when you might want to publish.   I appreciate you sharing your deep connection with your friend Willa (and I am sorry for your loss) and the benefit of having a Trans friend and mentor in our Life and Journey.  I was fortunate to have found one also in our TGP friend @Kasumi63.   As you know we share many common Life themes in our stories.  Drop me a PM if you'd like to chat about it.  Looking forward to the next 'chapter'.

      Voting is compulsory here, for better or worse. Would doing the same in the US snap people out of their apathy?
    • Abigail Genevieve
      I am noting you use CRT terminology.  The comment is not out of the blue.  Some of your remarks on religion suggest atheism.  So it is believable that you are a Marxist, knowingly or not.  Are you?
