I can put "tons of books" on my electronic tablet yet its weight remains constant.

Absolutely amazing.

Hehehe I am a silly woman at times.

Hi Everyone

Arriving in Sydney 35 years ago and within 3 months I was living and working as a female.  I had no makeup or voice lessons.  I taught myself and of course there was no YouTube then to learn from.  In addition I dressed appropriately for my age, work and the social occasion.

The only information that I had at the time was a book on plaits and a book on makeup (I'm not sure on this book).  If I do have that book it is still within my collection of books.  I will soon be unpacking my books and when I come across those books I will list those books that helped me no end.

Why after all that time, would I still have those books?  Simple, I love books.

I keep my privacy private, in other words I do not tell any government department about my 'medical condition' and that includes 'doctors' or any organization as well, except for the few doctors that I have revealed my condition to recently, I emphasize that is not to be recorded in their computer systems.  This ensures I have no hassles whatsoever.

Take care and have a wonderful weekend that is coming your way

Love and Hugs

I have not had my documentation changed but when I want to I would like to be able to, wherever I may be in the USA.

I do not seem to need to show my ID much at all except at airports, and very occasionally when I use a credit card that is handed over to a cashier.   Most of the time you can use those credit card readers.

Yesterday I had a half slab of Saint Louis style pork ribs.  This cut of rib is the same as untrimmed pork spare ribs.

Tuesday I ate some crabmeat (canned) on top of a typical salad.

Except for my willow, I don't recall seeing a successful examples of pollarding in USA.

I have seen a lot of disasters with ornamental cherry trees. Way too much cutting and not enough leaves for the plant to survive, much less thrive.
I was able to move my weeping cherry tree after ten years to a protected spot near a boxwood hedge.  It is doing great and has gotten bigger! I may let the hedge grow tall near the tree as the bloom is better if the cherry branches are protected and not so much bloom at the top.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins that sex discrimination under Title VII applies to gender stereotypes. It only makes sense that Title IX would follow the same guidelines.

"Five federal appeals courts have explicitly ruled that transgender people are protected against discrimination under federal laws prohibiting sex discrimination, as have dozens of federal district courts and state courts. When transgender people face discrimination because they don't conform to employers' expectations about how men and women should look, behave, or identify, that's sex discrimination."
