Topic: The Ramblings of a Northern*Star Girl

[Northern Star Girl]

December 03, 2019 

I am considering my new thread as my personal journal of my life and times as a full time woman in a small town in Alaska.

I am 39 years old and I started my transition in March of 2015 and was able to go Full-Time in December of 2016.
I then immediately quit my executive job in a medium sizecompany heading up the accounting department and
relocated here to a very small Alaskan town to take over a retired man's accounting firm.

As a CPA and Certified Financial Planner I started my own woman-owned business.  I was able to build my business
fairly quickly with both personal and business clients.

Thank you for coming to my new thread, I will post more a little later today......

HUGS,
Danielle

OK, now I'm confused. Are you experiencing multiple personalities? LOL

I've loved following all your posts from the start and have greatly appreciated your advice here (as well as being amazed about how you found the time to balance, love, business, life and Susan's.

How was Thanksgiving?

Here is more......

I came to my small "off-the -beaten path" town knowing no one.   
I had talked to a few town officials about starting my new business here and they helped me to find an office space I could rent right in the center of town.  I made a point of getting involved in local civic events and activities and was warmly welcomed for my participation.
For my business it is fortunate to have a good visible location but also it happens to be right next door to the local coffee shop which turns out to be the local morning meet and greet center.

Just about every morning I find myself in the coffee shop to socialize and to have coffee and/or a light breakfast.  I quickly became acquainted with just about everyone in my small town and I have found wonderful acceptance.
I have a fond and exciting story regarding how I came out to the town and revealed my past life but I will save that for anther time.

.... more to come, patience please.

Dear Laura:
Thank you for coming to my new thread....
No multiple personalities that I am aware of, perhaps my friends may identify a few!  LOL   

I appreciate that you took the time to read my previous threads from the start so now you have a pretty good idea of who I am and what has already been happening in my life.

Thank you also for your kind words regarding my past advice....   

Thanksgiving holiday celebrations are still going on.   I am still near Billiings, Montana at my ToothFairy sweetie's parents ranch-home for several more days before my ToothFairy and I take a road trips back west through Montana, Idaho and Washington states.  We have more friends to stop over and visit before we fly back home to Alaska in a few more days.

We were have been busy getting things set up for Christmas, outside and inside lights and decorations and of course planning for a tree.   Yesterday a group of us went out on the property and found a Christmas tree to cut down and we brought it into the house and have since been busy decorating it with lights and ornaments.  Since I am one of the shorter individuals here, I have been relegated to decorating the lower branches of the tree.

Again, thank you for writing and hopefully you will be one of my threads first followers along with @Jessica

Stay tuned for more soon....
HUGS,
Danielle

My dear followers: 
Thank you for your comments and thoughts.... and your "welcome back" messages.
Regarding me coming back with a new name and a new profile, let me just say that it was my fault and my error.
The good news is that I am back now ready to enjoy exchanging comments with all of my friends and followers.

Hi Danielle,

I'm so glad that you're back!! The site was a lesser place without your smiling face popping up in the threads. You are a very trusted member here, and the site just isn't the same without you!! I like your new avatar name by the way.

Hope you're having fun in Montana...if that's where you still are. I look forward to reading your new thread.

xoxo

@Lexxi
Dear Lexxi:
Thank you so much for your kind and much appreciated words.
When I came back to the Forums I thought that my new  Northern Star Girl  name would be quite appropriate considering where I live.

Yes, I am still in Montana for several more days before me and my ToothFairy get back on the road to head back home.
We had a great time at her parents home-ranch for the Thanksgiving holiday and the last couple days we have been decorating the place for Christmas.

Regarding my smiling face, as I have done previously I will be posting a picture of myself from time to time showing my smile and my blue eyes.

Thank you for coming to my new thread, you are always welcome here... as always.

HUGS,
Danielle

@Davina61
Dear Davina:
Thank you for saying hello upon my return. 

I am so sorry that I changed my thread, or rather, added a new thread.
I have been going through some turmoil lately and have been a busy girl during my visit to my sweetie ToothFairy's parents home at their Montana ranch.
I guess that I threw a monkey-wrench in your plans to follow my thread....
..... (or would that be a monkey-spannner in UK parlance?)

My previous thread is still quite active so if you are so inclined please feel free to CONTINUE to post your thoughts there also:

 .
I trust that you are doing well with the Christmas holiday coming up soon. 
I suppose that you may be making lots of your famous clocks out of spare automobile parts to use as gifts.
I will be visiting your thread soon to read and see what you have been up to.

Again, I appreciate your "hi" and thank you for following my threads, you are always welcome

HUGS and best wishes,
Danielle

Hi Girl!  I want to post and say hello so I can follow your new thread.   I hope you have recovered from your latest turmoil.  I understand, it seems to come with the territory.

We have some things in common; I too am self employed in a very small town.  I transitioned here and also found the people amazingly accepting.

Dear Dorit:
Thank you for finding my newest thread here.   I am so glad that you posted here and will be following my life adventures.   As I had told others, my previous thread that you were following is still active and also please feel free to post your thoughts there too...
      A New Chapter: ALASKAN DANIELLE's Chronicles

Yes indeed, instead of us getting "lost" among the crowds in a large city, we both chose to live in a very small town where we can make friends and acquaintances quickly.  Shortly after I arrived here and started fitting in I knew many people by their name and they knew my name....  I was quickly accepted as my previous thread detailed...

Ya you can't fool me. I know you're our Northern Star sister. There have been lots of changes going on everywhere. Hopefully all are happy changes.

Hugs!

[Ellie_Arroway]

When I saw the title of this thread, I was thinking that maybe there's someone Danielle knows or is close to her?

Then I found out, of course, it was no other than Danielle herself!

I got through maybe a quarter of your hunted quarry thread, or whatever it was called? Unfortunately, as it was longer than Lord of the Rings, I didn't have time to finish it

Maybe I'll be able to keep up with this one... we'll have to see!

Dear Donica:
Yes indeed, I am the same Northern Star sister and the same Alaskan Danielle. 
I have been experiencing changes in my life and my relationships, check out my thread...
...Things change re: ALASKAN DANIELLE

Certainly not all are happy changes, but overall they are changes that I have to deal with and with my positive attitude I will move forward and make lemonade out of the lemons that life throws at me.

I trust that you are doing well.  I read on your thread that your debridement is now all healed up now.  Wow, that is wonderful to read.  That post surgery difficulty was certainly a difficult thing for you to physically and mentally overcome....  kudos to you for being a very strong woman.

Thank you for finding my new thread and sharing your thoughts and comments.
Of course you are always welcome here any time!

HUGS, and best wishes....
Danielle
