Both of you look so good. I wish I could go out to dinner somewhere. I'm still a bit scared of covid so I get in and out of stores as fast as possible without looking like a crazy woman.

@Confused1OMG does anyone else here roller skate? Was gonna post an actual pic of me wearing them but no cel phone no camera so . . 

 

Took the grandkids (2) skating last Weds and, upon renting a size 11, my feet starting killing me not to mention *a wobbling* left & right so . . 

 

Following day spent two hours on web looking to buy a specific Chicago 800 "dance skate" (same as when a kid) just to find SOLD OUT everywhere I looked? Well, "Made in China" explains it but took a chance here (women's sizing is smaller right?) and - low & behold - they FIT perfect am happy as a clam!

Thanks Holly I really appreciate the nice compliment.

Liz don't be afraid to go out just don't go to really busy places.

Take your precautions like you do going to work.

It had been so long since I had Japanese cuisine and it was a real treat.

My date was a guy I met recently thru a girl friend.

@Teri Anne and @Holly Elizabeth You both look great!  And a Date Night.....do tell, how did it go?  

@Linda Marieas always, you rock the dress!

No way you are getting me into skates, I've had enough orthopedic surgeries to last a lifetime. lol

Liz, I don't go into restaurants either and I'm fully vaccinated. I do grab takeout or if they have very well spaced out outdoor seating like the taco place I had lunch at today, I will do that.  I don't mind shopping because of the vaccination plus I wear a N95 and have hand sanitizer with me at all times.  I give people plenty of space in stores,

 

Yesterday a clothing delivery arrived! I got a bunch of cami tops from Amazon in Medium and Large not sure which would fit and planned on returning the ones that didn't.  The medium was too small so my wife took them instead.  This morning we woke up seperately and when we met in the kitchen, low and behold, we're both wearing jeans and the same blue cami SMH.  Twins haha.  We both refused to change so we even went out to said Taco place together that way. (I looked cuter because I had my hat though lol).

Hi Kiera,

 

I haven't roller skated in 40 years and I wasn't good at it back then. I'd probably break something if I started now. I'm glad you found some skates that fit. I like the hat.

 

Hugs,

Mike

Its been at least 30 years for me.  My legs were sore for a week and my back side was black and blue from falling.  That was it for me!  I will admit it was fun though! 

 

@Teri Anne you look great and I'm happy you enjoyed yourself!  You go Girl!!

Thanks Jani I had a great time.

I too loved skating when I was a kid but I'm not fond of busting my butt on a hard surface these days.

       Well I took a couple of good falls but attribute it the rental skates. Used to work at a Professional rink in NJ as a kid as the one "patrolling" backwards, slowing down speeders, and helping you up when *crashed*. Don't see THAT much anymore but 'ole habits are hard to break.

 

OMG sad the rink is No More! It was 'State' Arena back then not 'Skate' and they gave me free admission plus skates (like above) in return for helping out unpaid. Mom used to HATE driving sister & I back/forth to Lakewood in her '66 Chrysler  . . .

Quote

Primary reason for closing: "She & her husband want to retire, and their son wants to have a career in computer science instead of running a roller rink"

 

@Teri Anne I'm jealous skating was (and still is?) a great date, way to MEET!

I spent a summer as a car-hop. It was pretty cool, I got paid to skate all day. I learned to figure skate when I was 6 or 7. I had no desire to play hockey, just wanted to jump and spin..ya know, like the other girls. OMG, the signs were there. Why did no one ever pick up on them.

One of our mods here, Jody Ann,  a few years back loved to skate, she coached a women's roller derby team which she eventually joined.  She was unfortunately severly injured in an attack not related to gender.  We haven't seen her for years now.

  I used to love to skate both with online road skates and ice skates.  I've fantasized heading ton the rink now wit a cute pair of tights and a "skating skirt" but i fear arthritis might make that quite hard. In old girl can dream though.

 

Hugs,

As a kid, I roller skated almost every weekend.  My parents both roller skated and they got all the kids into it.  I was more into it than my siblings were and consequently, I used to go with my mom a lot.  Fond memories for sure. 

 

I had to wear black roller skates but deep down, I really wanted to wear the white ones.  In fact, wearing white roller skates and a poodle skirt would have put me over the moon.  Unfortunately, I think that outfit would have put my parents over the moon for a different reason.

Times were different, or maybe not.

 

I never was any good on skates - ice or wheels.

Oh, I had a doctors appointment this morning. I wore this. This top really needs something more, like another top over it. Way too much showing. Lol

You look lovely in the dress that is such a pretty dress too.

You are way bolder than I am with the top in the second pic.

Every time I wear a low cut top people stare and that makes me uneasy.

Link to comment

Thank you sweetie.  I thought about it and I really don’t care if they stare. Wow that rhymed. LOL 

 

The thing about the second top is that I’m not sure I’m going to wear it again. My girls are too exposed in it. It’s cute, but not for general audiences. Not even PG if you know what I mean. LOL

I used to wear semi revealing tops/ short skirts when I first "came out" trying to prove something I guess but these days I don't have anything to prove.

You look good in this top. I was looking at a dress earlier that has similar colors and patterns.

       Actually NOT those times were definitely BETTER! And telling my father, before he passed, turned out to be quite easy because he had already been "primed" for me: his best "male" co-worker friend (mom was BF with wife "Lee" as well), living just down the street from us, in the mid 1960's, was eventually FIRED when she transitioned and become "Georgette"!

 

I was only 'bout 10, they moved away to north Jersey soon thereafter, but mom and Lee remained close and we ALL finally moved south to Florida together as well (sans "Georgette" of course!) WEIRD ALERT SORRY!!

      Good Morning    well it’s Friday for most, pay day for some.  For me it’s pay day but not Friday.  I work the same opening shift tomorrow.  I typically have Friday on Saturday and Monday on Tuesday.     @KymmieL it does sound like your shop has an issue and you are smack in the thick of it.  The new gal or guy often is.  We have an issue with new people not getting fully trained before being turned loose on customers.  Some struggle through it and some quit because of it.  I try to get them working with customers as quickly as I can but I stay right with them observing, helping, even jumping in when things are getting backed up to keep the stress down.  Not everything comes up during training so when things do, even later after trying is done, I try to help and explain.  Our ASM feels that once she has you scanning barcodes and taking money she is done training.  Generally, refuses to train me on things that she does, and questions why I’m doing something that she normally handles when I’ve been told to do it as part of my advancement training.     She and the cashier involved both keep trying to toss the manager under the bus over a hours of work issue and shifts.  I tell her I realize her issues and I’ll work what ever she needs.  Because of that I tend to get a better more consistent schedule.   Well, time to say Happy Trails to you, until we meet again.   Hi ho Silver, away   Willow

      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

      Well it not morning and I haven’t been on her for a while but it’s nice to be back.  Did some catching up on everyone.  I do have a question, how is Toronto Canada for a get away? Is it a safe and friendly area for us to go.  The wife and I are looking for some where to go to allow me to be my true self.     thanks in advance

      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."
