I got a text from one kid, a lunch and visit from the other kid, and the old "I'm not a lesbian so maybe we should divorce" speech from my legal spouse. So a mixed day for me. -

A detriment to growing your hair out is that it has a mind of its own. The crooked ones stick out, or the stray ones just won't behave, or the split ends take over, or the fluffy extremities explode. My hair is thick but fine and it resembles cotton candy at times. A hack that my hairdresser told me to control frizz was to smear a bit of moisturizer on or through it. It does work, but it is not ideal. I have also experimented with different conditioners and have found one that leaves my hair feeling better, but my hair still lacks body and is still prone to some unruliness. I bought some hair oil today, tried it, and hey presto! Two squirts of it into my palms and rub it through my hair, and OMG the difference is amazing! Every strand seems to settle down, hair stays as just combed or brushed, and it also smells absolutely beautiful. My hair is my best asset. It took me too long to discover this, but yes! Yes!! YES!!! -

Speaking of Father's Day, I never realized until today that it is commemorated on different dates depending on where you are in the world! Here, it is the first Sunday in September! But our Mother's Day is the same as the rest of the world! I have no idea why there is inconsistency. -

We have been farming small ruminants ie goats and now sheep for over 15 years now. Our biggest market has been the Muslim community. Todays holiday brings families together and our farm will be part of a friend's celebration. 4 yearling sheep will be sacrificed and dressed at the farm. 1/3 of the meat will go to the poor, 1/3 to extended family and friends and then rest for the families feast. Our friend is a professional butcher who loves the way we raise and care for our flock. As a vegetarian i'm simply glad to see our animals to be handled with so much care and compassion. As a trans woman i'm glad to find acceptance by Imams and the muslim community. If you don't know about it here is an explanation of the Eid: Islamic religious festival Eid al-Adha, also called the "Festival of the Sacrifice", is the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide each year (the other being Eid al-Fitr), and considered the holier of the two. It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God's command. wikipedia.org Hugs, Charlize -

A couple of different things. A few of weeks ago I got my hair trimmed and my hairdresser blurted out that "Most women would give their right arm to have hair like yours!" I was staring into the mirror at the time of course, and I don't believe that I have ever witnessed myself grinning as large as that. Smaller but still significant, the other night we had a family function and I mentioned to my son's mother-in-law how awesome her nails looked - dark blue with gold and silver glitter. Her spontaneous reply, thanking me for the compliment, made me smile and feel all warm and fuzzy. The old me, or any bloke for that matter, would never engage in such talk with a lady, but it felt natural to me, and it left me with the thought, I Got This. -

This was...is a tough aspect of my transition too. Though with my Mom the situation is a bit different. I'm not sure how that would have gone had it been a decade earlier. For other loved ones in my life I grieved weeks before telling my brothers, they're still grieving the loss of their big brother. Tbh, big brother was the persona I aimed for, I didn't ever want anyone to know about the real me, the transgender woman. Some here have shared similar stories & healing often comes included with some variation of tolerance, or acceptance with time. There's hope... Hugs! Delcina -

Good morning I guess everyone had something happening, I’ve never heard so many crickets on hear at the same time I do realize the Father’s Day brings with a lot of memories. Some good. Some not so good and with that I’ll drop the subject. I hope everyone survived the day. -
