My first day here. I'm at least wearing hose and heels - kind of a guy in a skirt day for me today. Work to do in my barn, you see. :huh:

Anyway, I've been crossdressing for as long as I can remember. I'm 41, so my memory isn't what it used to be. :rolleyes: Crossdressing started for me with pantyhose. As soon as I put them on I was hooked. And still am. Then the feeling of high heels. Wow. And I progressed from there. I don't fully dress as often anymore, you might consider me a waist down crossdresser now. I love skirts, pantyhose, and heels. I have a ton of shoes! Ok, I love shopping for shoes.

Well I hope to have fun at this site, and make some new friends.

OK, so I am impressed. You work in a barn in heels!? I've been in heels for ~35 years and even I wouldn't do that! Doesn't the rough floor tear up the leather on the heel? If it was me, I'd put a foot wrong and the heel would sink into a hole or something in the wood floor and I'd go bum over teakettle into something unpleasant. Or I would sheer off a heel catching it on some plank edge. And still tumble into something unpleasant.

Welcome aboard!

Hi, Jennifer, and welcome to Laura's! You've found a wonderful site to make friends and learn and have fun. The

members here are supportive, helpful, trustworthy and warm. You'll feel at home in no time at all.

The official welcoming committee will be along any minute with their famous cookies and cocoa, so I hope you're

in the mood for a snack.

I'm a CDer too, from my teen years (I'm officially middle aged this year, boo!). I've been active and inactive several times,

and my Carolyn-self reawakened with a vengeance recently, which is when I went internet exploring and had the great

good fortune of finding Laura's.

After you have made five posts, you can send private messages (PM's) to other members. You are welcome to send

to me if you wish.

Please explore the forums and chat rooms and make yourself at home. We love to hear more from you.

Yes sir(or ma'am)! B)

Oh, and I guess I'll introduce myself a little. I turned 21 this year, still in college. Even though I have the New York flag under my name I don't really live there. I would like too in my future - bigger and better job opportunities. I'm one of the only Canadian mods, eh.

Anyway...enjoy all the warm welcomes.

:P I bet you won't ask for directions either and drive around lost all day.

Nope not me I'll just be the one balling her eyes out on the side of the high way totally lost because I have no sense of direction. I remember when I first moved up to the DC metro area and was coming home from my first day of work. I manged to take the wrong exit getting onto 123 and rather then getting home ended up passing by the washington monument on the wrong side of the river. >.< Everywhere there where highways and with no easy way to pull off and be able to find my way back on the road I was a complete train wreck until a cop pulled up behind me on the shoulder of the road while I was pulled over crying over a map and took mercy and pointed me in the right direction.

Geesh where are my manners. :D Hi Jennifer. I have some double chocolate cookies for you.

Welcome, Jennifer!

I don't get around here much in the summer with work, grad school, and my hobbies (Civil War reenacting and horses). Just wanted to welcome you. I'm over the lake from you and have gotten up to Grand Rapids a few times (have family farther north in MI). Beautiful area too.

My barn has a smooth cement floor. 30x56 'man cave' where all my tools and toys live.

Wow! Thanks everyone for such a warm and wonderful welcome. The cookies are really yummy, but I only got to eat two before the plate was empty! That's ok, I like to share! (And truth be told, I don't ever want to have to wear control top, gotta watch my girly figure you know.)

This looks like it's going to be a great place to hang out. Everyone seems so nice. Thanks so much again!

I used to live in Barrington Hills, IL. Not too far from Wisconsin. My Grandpa had a farm in near Antioch, used to own the golf course too. Small world.

I'll grab the service manual as a last resort... or when I need torque specs... I just have never found any make up tips in those manuals. And I looked all through the 'Body Work' section!!!

Hi Jennifer

So nice to meet you. I'm sure you'll like it here, the people are friendly and the cookies and coco are great. Though I don't understand where Sally and Donna Jean get the time for all that baking? :lol:

Have A Great Day On The Farm,

LMAO Makeup for a car? I'm pretty sure it says somewhere that painting flames on the side of your car makes it faster at least that's what my neighbor proclaims. :lol: OH OH you could do like Homer Simpson and put speed holes in the hood of your car too.

      That's a toughy to say. But I do know that it's an area for improvement with me. I can get pretty down on myself sometimes. I guess I have to remember that I'm human just like everyone else, not perfect. And that's okay.   Lots of love, Timber Wolf 🐾🪻

      Good morning    On this date in 1972 it was a Saturday. I  made a pledge to love and honor my wife and keep her forsaking all others.  I have kept those vows and here we are celebrating our 52nd anniversary still together.  Still caring for each other through sickness and in health.  Still sharing our lives.   Other than that, it’s another day near the beach.  80 and mostly sunny.     I found a ‘17 GMC Acadia yesterday I want to take a look at.  It’s a bit more than I wanted to spend but it’s doable. Only 69k miles on it, with the low mileage I put on cars these days it probably won’t ever hit 100k if I do beget it.  Low mileage now is  likely because it was a leased car at some point. Those usually get pretty good care and not a lot of miles.  It would be similar in size to my Ford, 7 passenger seating but a more basic trim which is fine.  It only has a 4 cyl engine so potentially rather under powered for a relatively large SUV.  The ford has a 4.0liter 6 which is a bit large for cars these days.  Instead of full time all wheel drive, it apparently has 4 modes, 2, 4, sport (what ever that is, I presume it’s over drive turned off) and anti slip.  It’s probably not going to happen but I am keeping my eyes open for a good deal. The old Ford is just that, an old worn out Ford.  Since I bought the Ford I’ve only put about 10k miles on it in 6 years.  My daughter once had an Acadia, top trim package.  When she was driving back and forth to work close to 100 miles per day and going to Philadelphia every week another 500 or more.  For her the miles added up fast.   still keeping my eyes open.  This is about the right age and size but I was hoping to spend about $2000 less.   Other than that I hope to meet with my minister today about paper topics for my class submission.   Other than that Monday is laundry day so I’ll be doing several loads of laundry today.     I put on a neutral gel nail polish last night.  I tried this before, however, I don’t believe I correctly understood the how to get a good result so I was more careful this time.  All I want it’s to give my bpfinger nails enough strength to grow out just a little and stop tearing.   Well, I need to call to make an urology appointment.   @Birdiei was born in Ohio and until Lamda Legal sued them you could not get a sex change on a birth certificate for any reason.  Now you can.  In South Carolina a name change requires $300 and a form filled out and filed with the clerk of courts.  But a gender change requires a birth certificate with the new gender listed.  I am hoping they will permit gender X eventually but right now the state is too Red to do any such thing.   Willow

      I have the problem, that I see myself at 3 maybe 4 on the list. I don't have the self love that I should have.   What does it mean to you?   Kymmie

      Seems the stuffy day-centre has swapped out Psychiatric Services and therapy to the local BSA hospital. BSA works closely with the local university and is much more gender accepting than the day-centre. The day-centre's psychiatrist wanted to treat me for gender dysphoria by correcting it. 🙄   I logged into MyChart app at the hospital and updated my preferred name (Birdie) and preferred gender marker for them to use.  I'll try and get a referral for gender therapy at the hospital as well.    Nevada is my place of birth and I found out changing the gender marker on my birth certificate there only requires a letter from a licensed therapist, but a name change still requires a court order.    Changing the gender marker to female would at least be one step in the right direction, then I could renew my ID to state female instead.

      Well today by attention wise was downright horrible. My legs can't stay still, can't focus on a project, my mind wanders around a lot, constantly fidgeting, easily distracted, couldn't even tell you what the sermon was about but there was vine on the altar and attention to detail sucks. I have read that it is possible to have BPD and ADHD. My mind even wanders during prayer. If I have both I won't be able to take Adderall because it makes my BPD symptoms worse. I keep having side effects that come up from my 3 traumatic brain injuries.

      If it wasn't so *EVIL*, I would have to laugh.  Everyone knows that trans women in particular have such an overwhelming superiority in poetry that the competition would be unfair if they were allowed to enter.  You can't make this stuff up!   Seriously, sorry for making light of it.  But it is only by highlighting the utter absurdity of this kind of crap, whether it occurs in Russia or Florida, that I am able to hang on to any shred of sanity.

      I used to fully agree with this statement, that is, until the first lockdown   Everyone I knew around me was affected by the pandemic. they couldn't work. they couldn't see their friends. they felt bored/ frustrated they couldn't get out of the house   and then there was me who welcomed it, because for once in my life, I didn't feel like a loser- and after lockdown, when everyone looked forward to going back to work or going out, well.. I had nothing- and I felt that no, I wasn't normal because I didn't have a life to get back to
