Hi

 

well no coffee today, used the last of it yesterday and haven’t gotten to a store.  Our temperatures are at least reasonable but shifty.  50s 70s 60s 80s just all over the dial.

 

my family will be joining us today. They are coming here from Virginia and our granddaughters will be staying with us for 3 weeks.  
 

The only bad news is Willow has to go back in the closet.  They don’t know about here.

OMG terrible day yesterday afternoon. 

Company car broke down on my way home.  Front wheel bearing crapped out and it was all but undrivable.  Almost home too dang it. Like 10 miles or so.  I naturally tried to call my office, but Sweet, no cell service and I knew about where I needed to walk to before I could make a call.  Great.  This blows.  

It was not to cold out but walking the side a main route in VT in Dansko clogs was not a fun thing.  I kept rolling my ankles in the uneven ground.  It sucked.  I almost feel down once and was so angry at the entire situation.

THEN there was the multiple cars that stopped to offer me a ride.  I'm thinking "sweet" but then I see, or smell, what has stopped and I'm like "No thank you".  Some wear fairly insistent and it was a tad scary.  I did not realize how many creeps were in VT but I suppose I have been sheltered from a lot of this my entire life.  They might of been nice guys but I did not get a good sense from many of them so Pass!  There were like 7 cars that stopped in my first mile and a half.  Hmm that's kinda cool but risky.  

I'm not worried with my past military training but still I don't need that sort of crap.  I did keep a hand on my "little friend" in my purse even so.  

Eventually a guy I knew stopped to offer me a ride.  Though he did not know it was me.  LOL

Yea that's the weirdest coming out I have had to date.  But he was nice and still offered me the ride.  He was always a nice guy when I knew him as male so I accepted.  He drove me to the cell service spot everyone seems to use on this road and waited and drove me back to my car.  It was pleasant to chat with him and he had a ton of good questions which I never mind answering.  Unless they get a tad personal on a physical sense.  Which he only asked one of those but felt bad instantly.  I gave him a pass on that one since he was being so nice.  Though its so true that men are so captivated by breasts.   He just had to know if mine were fake or real. Them being real was a shock to him. Though he did not ask me to prove it.  So its all good.  I took it as a compliment. LOL

 

I am now sitting at home working "remotely" before the car appointment.   Basically playing online until its time to go.  Authorized by my supervisor so I am still getting paid too.  LOL

 

Hope you all have a great day!

Shawna, wow. Glad you are OK and actually didn't have to walk all the way to service and back to your car. at least it wasn't snowing and cold.

 

Well news on the baby front, my daughter in law is at the hospital, She started contractions about 11 last night. Went to the hospital about 3:30-4 this morning. Got the text a little before 6 this morning. So it is a waiting game now.

Wow ShawnaLeigh an eventful time with your car!

I am glad you can pick up on what I refer to as my "slime meter" interacting with others. It's good to be able to have that sense kick in. Otherwise things might have gone very wrong.

Congratulations on getting through that safely.

Thank you for the encouraging words @KymmieL @ShawnaLeigh @Jackie C. @Susan R I'm recovering my happy self, but it sure stung at the time.

I'm determined I can do better and deserve better.

I seem to get a lot of friend requests from weirdos too. When the written English is very badly broken but they claim to be from nearby, alarm bells go off for me.

TA

I agree - you simply do not ever say that to a woman, or heck to any person.  Lordy, if that's how he treats a first date, how abrasive would he be once he got to know you?  That's is so not okay...  I'm glad you are recovering, though.  As you said, you deserve better, and you will do better,  just keep yourself out there and don't settle for losers like that.

 

I have a dear friend who grew up in my neighborhood, and his writing is atrocious.  Like, most people who speak English as a second language write better than he can.  Those weirdos might actually be from nearby!  Still, if an alarm goes off, don't ever ignore it - ignoring warning bells always gets me trouble.

This is the kind of thing that drives home how little choice we have.  Why would someone choose to become a target for creeps and weirdos?  I'm just glad that someone you could trust came along.  And what a coming out!  You were able to see both sides of the coin that is human nature...

Congratulations. The most wonderful thing about being a grandparent is that you're a superhero to your grandchildren all the time. It's something that really took me by surprise, but I quickly learned to enjoy it.

And you've got four now! That is just awesome.

My my my. That is really wonderful news.

I know you are pleased, despite the long wait.

Heal up quickly dear. There's a young woman who wants to catch up on lost time. I wish you both the happiest of times as you get settled into parenthood.

Good morning 

 

@KymmieL Congratulations for the healthy birth.  Birth weight isn’t always a good predictor of adult size.  I was 7-3 and am not a big person now.  My son was 2-9 (not a mistake) and is average now.  
 

@ShawnaLeigh you should definitely listen to your spidy sense.  Not even you hidden friend can always get you out of a jam. I have distanced my self from most all social media like Facebook and LinkedIn too many fake things out there.  Always be safe first.

LMAO I actually had to think about this one for a minute.  "My hidden friend?"  

Then I dawned on me.

"OH my S&W MP9 with Crimson Trace laser grip."  

Yea I am guessing the activated laser grip is all it would take to scare off anyone trying to take advantage of me.

If not I already have a prepared speech for the cops on why this person does not have knee caps anymore.

Well accomplished what I wanted to do yesterday. Got the factory sub working with the  aftermarket radio in the Explorer. Got the charging problem figured out in the 2dr Crown Vic even took my 71 Wagon for a drive too.

 

White crap on the ground this morning. Seemed to have stopped for now. Most of it is East of us. Just swell as that is the way we are traveling this afternoon.

 

Will wait till I get to work for my caffeine fix today. 

 

Be safe and Healthy my  sisters and brothers.

I'm glad to hear you've received validation about your "new" daughter and that all is well in your family.  

 

I hope your surgery site continues to heal well.  All my best to you and your family.

@Debra Michelle congratulations it’s a girl!  Sorry it took you all this time to find out.  Glad your gcs is healing nicely.  Sounds like you are having a good week.

 

@KymmieL I had a heck of a time getting my Explorer’s factory woofer to work with my aftermarket radio.  Everything I read kept saying I needed an after market amplifier which I wasn’t interested in adding.  Then I finally found a tiny converter RCA to hardwire for a couple of dollars. Now that works better then the door speakers.

      I'm thinking about some interactions yesterday I did, while presenting as male but acting as female, that were far better than I did when I was presenting as male and acting as male.  #girlunderhood. I do a crappy job at acting as male and I am giving it up.  I am not talking about feminine gestures or presentation but just relating as a woman.  People don't realize I am doing it but it is a whole lot easier to do.   You don't just put on a dress and BOOM you are a girl.  You are a girl and you put on a dress.  Or not. Whether I am in jeans or a skirt (I wish, wife would have lots to say) I am a girl.  I don't need $250 in makeup and heels and hose and all that.  I don't need surgery. Honey, I have arrived.  Now I have to work out how that best works in my life, causing the minimal damage and creating the maximum good, but I have more working room.   Oh, and I am still pissed off at everyone and everything. #Contradictory.

      @Willow it is certainly possible that my husband planned it. Placing me in the path of an opportunity....he certainly does things like that. GF has done some work for the company as an outside consultant, so I'm sure the company owner knows what potential resources are around.    It could also have just happened randomly. He has taken me to work with him before, just because he likes to have me around. I remember one time that I fell asleep with my head in his lap, and he held a meeting with his subordinates without waking me and making me move.  The company culture is family oriented and relaxed.

      The photo is great.  Software is phenomenal but it also is sort of a promise of things to come. Years ago this sort of thing took a photographer and Photoshop and all sorts of things and you would say, "I can look like THIS??"   Me, I am a duck.  That's from my driver's license.  Just kidding.

      I lucked into that picture. I took like 10 before that, which appropriately make me look like a donkey. ;)   Thank you so much for the compliment!

      This is a great analogy. The statement is true as it relates to the tree. The analogy fits because we as a LGBTQIA community are stronger when we stand together. It also work here on Transgender Pulse Forums. The support I feel from so many others has made me comfortable with my stance, because I'm in a beautiful forest of friends. So when I'm out alone and confronted. I can respond and act like the single tree in the field, surviving whatever comes my way. My roots reach back and communicate with others like me.    Standing Strong,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      M.   The term bigender works for me because after taking the time to explore my feelings, I kept coming to the same conclusion, that while I felt an overpowering need to express my inner woman, I also enjoyed being a man.  I realized that my personality was equal parts man and woman and to be happy and fulfilled, I needed to express both sides.  There are challenges living a life of two-gender expression, but I'll expand on some of those in future posts.     Hugs,   Sally

      I thought Hey, I can't be experiencing Gender destroyer because it doesn't fit the narrative, but Hey I can. I am experiencing mild discomfort in relation to my gender. Because and that can be a form of mild form of it this forum because their elements of my gender that are out of alignment with my sign gender at birth. There are elements of my gender I have been holding back on some I did not even know for fear it did not fit was told was not very manly or in some other way not correct for someone who is an amab. I tried embracing and expressing some of these parts of me even for just a little bit every once in a while and it feels like a relief to me like a weight has been lifted.
