Title: Finally getting answers
Post by: DawnOday on March 15, 2019, 02:39:43 PM
About three years ago was my first visit to Susan's Place. I have learned so much since then. I have made a few friends and it is nice to have people care about you and are concerned. I haven't had much experience with this so sometimes I don't know how to react. I started taking Depo  Estradiol Cypionate recently. Leave it to me to read fear into it. It was easy and painless.

I have arranged my schedule for Diva Las Vegas in a couple weeks. I have purchased some new outfits but am having problems finding the shoes I need. Unfortunately Shoes of Prey who makes custom shoes for Nordstroms is out of business. They were expensive but they were comfortable and fit perfect. I also could have chosen from many different styles. While I am in Vegas I am going to visit with friends and family who live nearby. About ten days in total. I wanted to go to Keystone to meet my friend Moni but I would spend most my money just getting there.

Many people I know, wonder why Dawn are you so concerned for things that happened in the past. I can't tell you for sure but I can relate the symptoms it has relieved. My newest quest is how many items I can tick off on the autism spectrum. This may finally lead me to reasons above and beyond being misgendered. It sure helps to know that I finally am coming to grips with all my shortcomings and I can explain my behaviour to all those who still love me in spite of myself.

I would have thought some of this stuff would make me even more depressed but this has not been the case. Because, now. If the other person is interested I am able to explain and work on the relationship rather than giving up and accepting that nobody loves me.

This is going to be my best year ever. I will it. It will be so.

Hi,

If I had a choice between Keystone or Vegas I would go to Vegas. I would love to see the Hoover Dam and tour it. Also, I would love to see the different casinos and walk the old casino strip. I do not gamble so seeing a few shows and great dining and water sports would also be on the list.

I have never been to Keystone and I live in PA. So, maybe next year.

The good thing about Vegas is there is no entrance fee. The hotel rooms are discounted. There are dinners planned in many price ranges, There are group functions for make-up lessons, attending a couple of low priced entertainment like Piff the Magic Dragon from Americas Got Talent. You are not obligated to do anything and can be on your own and attend whatever events you want. It is billed as a vacation and not a conference or convention.. So far there are a little over 150 going.

You go have fun Dawn. I'll miss seeing you at Keystone, but maybe another time. Funny, I never caught the bug to go to Vegas. Maybe I'm afraid of getting stuck on a hotel roof with a hang over. At least I can drive to Harrisburg.

Hoping for your best year ever. You deserve it.
