Laurie

Thank you folks.

Georgia,

  I swear lady, I don't know how you can do that so much. I can picture you sitting in that cigar club surrounded by men all puffing on cigars and sipping on the bourbon. I used to enjoy a good cigar or pipe while my Chivas or Bushmills on the rocks. Alas they are but memories now, though I will admit to thinking of partaking of the spirits recently and thereby giving up 19 years of sobriety.

Hugs,
   Laurie

Don't you even think about it, young lady! After letting you rake me over the coals last week, I will tolerate no backsliding from you! Don't make me come out there!

I mean it. I really don't want to go out there. Brrrrrrrr!

The only spirit you are permitted to touch is me when I am with you in spirit to give you a hug. Don't make me come there in person to give you one of those slaps up side of the head which you so fondly hand out to others. Got it!!!!

Laurie, have a big [squish] from me.

From our chats you know I understand, and like you, there are times when I need my own sanctuary.

We will always be here when you emerge, and always encourage you as much as we can.

  Okay, okay. Calm down. I didn't drink and am not really likely to. Though I do sometimes wonder why not? Yes, it did pass through my head along with several other detrimental thoughts while feeling sorry for myself. But you see I did none of them. All I did do, was hide and try to ignore the outside world. For the better part of three days I watched Doctor Who while lying in my bed waiting for Christmas to go away.
  Christmas is gone and so I have come out of hiding again.

Hugs,
   Laurie

Yup.  If she pokes her head out and sees tinsel, there will be three more days of hiding...
Earth my body, water my blood, air my breath and fire my spirit.

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

It's okay. I'm just going to blame it all on that Aussie Liz. She started all this silly nonsense from down under. I at least pop my head above ground once in a while.
