@Erica Gabriel, you look like one those real sweet old ladies you occasionally meet when shopping.  Like...you're smiling, you look relaxed, your outfit says "casual but classy," and you've been shopping at wherever you are long enough to probably know where things are better than the employees.  Totally love it!

Did you just call her old?  😬    lol.

Me and the wife had a pretty good laugh about this last night. She now calls me her “old lady”. Too most younger folks I’m ancient.

Thank you, except for the “old” part 🤪

Oh nooooo!  So totally didn't mean it that way!  Now I feel bad.  ;_;  I'll just be over here in the corner. 🧏‍♀️

I’ll let you know when you can come out of “time out” 🤣. It was taken in good humor. No worries ❤️

I got a couple new sweaters and a friend bought me a pair of boots. I wore this to an LGBT group tonight. Just ignore the dog beds in the background.

Very nice @Elizabeth Star!  I need some boots like that.  Love the sweater to, but I think you're pulling those colors off way better than I could.  And did you do your nails yourself or go somewhere to have them done?  I could always use tips for the nails.  Mine are horrific, but no where near as clear and clean as yours look there.  Also, are the pants leggings or just a skinny fit cut sort of deal?  I really need to consider doing something with my hair...  You're like the 4th or 5th person in the past few days that was sharing pictures sporting colors.  It looks so nice!

Here's my latest efforts.  I was a little stir crazy and wanted to get out for a bit.  The only issue I have is with the hoodie.  Not for any negative reason, I love to wear it.  It's just way to warm/hot down here (I'm in Florida) like 98% of the time for wearing it to be a viable option.  Given how easily and excessively I tend to sweat, I can't get away with this as often as I would like to.

Been a little while since I posted any pics here, but this is a couple from yesterday. I love the look of jeggings/jeans but due to my "apple" shape I really struggle to keep them up even though I have a belt (I only buy jeans/jeggings that have belt loops). For this reason I tend to prefer dresses.

I usually wear a lot of black but have been trying to wear other colors. I got my nails done for the first time last weekend. I've never had them this long before. I like them but it's a real challenge to type and almost impossible to text. The bottoms are just cheap active wear leggings. I rarely wear jeans anymore.

You gals make me a bit jealous.  You look lovely!

I'm sitting here in long undies, jeans and chamois cloth shirt before bundling up and heading out to do chores and prepare for an incoming storm.  Tomorrow similar layers with insulated Cahart coveralls under coats.  I'll be sitting on an open tractor plowing snow.  I do have a lovely pink down jacket i may use as a top layer.  Oh well , the sheep don't care how i look as long as they get food and water.

 

Hugs,

I have been seriously considering getting my nails done.  The psoriasis is frustrating though.  It has stunted their growth and left them more brittle.  And I am totally  with you on darker pallets.  I usually fo with sapphire or emerald.  I make exceptions for pink though.  Gotta have my pink.   I don’t know if I could wear the active ware as well as you are.  Still going to try though. 🤗

Loving the looks you have going on!  Is that *your* or something like a wig?  Definitely a fan of it either way.  The way you have it put up.  Your look as a whole is wonderful!  That coat also looks super comfy.  I’m slightly jealous though. 😂

 

You are pulling off that shirt in the second picture with grace and that “classy but casual” look.  I seriously doubt I could get it to work for me like it is for you.

It's one of many wigs. But it wasn't until recently that a wig specialist showed me how I can style a wig in a number of ways. There are limitations, but there are quite a few different ways I can have my shoulder length wigs. In this case it was held up at the back into a short pony tail using a scrunchie.

I agree with @Charlize

Everyone looks great. I’m about to go out and clear the sidewalks and driveway of snow. It’s 20•F here so it’s about warmth not fashion this morning.

Quit the job I was hating yesterday. Still going in for a couple of weeks to take care of a client because I said I would but... behold! One of the few remaining pictures of me in my work garb!

Congrats, @Jackie C. !!!

Courage in action. Way to go!

Look for that new window to open—it'll bring you better things. Doing what you love tends to do that.

Hugs,

That's great @Jackie C.

I'm partially retired, having started my Teamsters and CLTL pensions. My business partner and I have agreed to keep our small two person company going strong in 2022, but once I reach full SS retirement age. I'm out of here.

 

Best wishes, stay positive, and safe,

Snap - I quit my job today. Loved the job but fed up with my requests for some small recognition for my contribution to their profits being recognised. Not had a pay rise in 12 years! I chose time of leaving to be at the most critical stage of a major project. Be interesting to see what they say. But I shall be very happy to throw any last minute offers back in their faces. I'm choosing retirement instead. I love your hair by the way and it's cosy casual look you've got going.

Niamh, there is life after retirement. You may even find it more rewarding to volunteer for your favorite charity.

You look great, Liz!  I suspect you enjoy shopping...as I say, shopping is cheaper than a psychiatrist! 😎👚

My partner would absolutely love your hair.  They’re quite taken with anything moving towards any sort of purple.  You look comfortable too.  Is that a scarf around your neck?

      As has been said many times, this is not a black and white issue. Sure.  I get it that a MtF person that has gone through full male puberty and "transitioned" 6 months ago probably has an advantage in some sports.  But these bans affect elementary school kids too. I mean, banning trans women from Darts?  Chess?

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.

      LGBTQ rights Project 2025 takes extreme positions against LGBTQ rights, seeking to eliminate federal protections for queer people and pursue research into conversion therapies in order to encourage gender and sexuality conformity. The policy book also lays out plans to criminalize being transgender and prohibit federal programs from supporting queer people through various policies. The project partnered with anti-LGBTQ groups the Family Policy Alliance, the Center for Family and Human Rights, and the Family Research Council. Project 2025 calls for the next secretary of Health and Human Services to “immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgender activism,” which includes removing terms related to gender and sexual identity from “every federal rule, agency regulation, contract, grant, regulation, and piece of legislation that exists.” The Trump administration proposed a similar idea in 2018 that would have resulted in trans people losing protections under anti-discrimination laws. [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; The New Republic, 2/8/24] Similarly, the policy book calls for HHS to stop all research related to gender identity unless the purpose is conformity to one's sex assigned at birth. The New Republic explains: “That is, research on gender-nonconforming children and teenagers should be funded by the government, but only for the purpose of studying what will make them conform, such as denying them gender-affirming care and instead trying to change their identities through ‘counseling,’ which is a form of conversion therapy.” [The New Republic, 2/8/24] The policy book’s foreword by Kevin Roberts describes “the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children” as “pornography” that “should be outlawed,” adding, “The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned.” Roberts also says that “educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders. And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Roberts’ foreword states that “allowing parents or physicians to ‘reassign’ the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end.” Echoing ongoing right-wing attacks on trans athletes, Roberts also claims, “Bureaucrats at the Department of Justice force school districts to undermine girls’ sports and parents’ rights to satisfy transgender extremists.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023; TIME magazine, 5/16/22] Dame Magazine reports that Project 2025 plans to use the Department of Justice to crack down on states that “do not charge LGBTQ people and their allies with crimes under the pretense that they are breaking federal and state laws against exposing minors to pornography.” [Dame Magazine, 8/14/23] Project 2025 also calls for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeat “its 2016 decision that CMS could not issue a National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding ‘gender reassignment surgery’ for Medicare beneficiaries.” The policy book’s HHS chapter continues: “In doing so, CMS should acknowledge the growing body of evidence that such interventions are dangerous and acknowledge that there is insufficient scientific evidence to support such coverage in state plans.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023] Going further, Project 2025 also demands that the next GOP administration “reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military.” The policy book’s chapter on the Defense Department claims: “Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service, and the use of public monies for transgender surgeries … for servicemembers should be ended.” [Project 2025, Mandate for Leadership, 2023]   …summaries of what’s within the rest of the document re: LGBTQ+ concerns. A person can believe their gender is fixed but incongruent with their physiology, but the authors and Trump (by his own words) just see the incongruity of an “expressed gender” that conflicts with what was/is in a person’s pants.
