Just sticking my head in to say hi, and introduce myself. I'm new here, but not really that new to the ideas or even community in many ways.
I try not to be stealth, but I'm not obsessed about gender anymore, so it really doesn't come up in life. My life until recently, my history, my past is, was a wild, wild ride, but it's what was then. Now I'm about the present, living each day, and finding balance in all things. The result? I'm pretty much the girl next door. Unless there's a good reason, or somehow specifically asks me about it, I don't really bring it up.
So there are plenty of people in my life that never knew the old me. Plenty of people who did and are thankfully still part of my life. Quite often they overlap. It really isn't, when all is said and done about gender, it's about freedom and balance, at least for me it is.
Why am I here? Believe or not because someone had posted a link from one of my blog entries over here and I thought I'd take a look...
One of the things I find most interesting is how little community there is in this community. So I'm always looking for more. I've met plenty of TS/IS people over the years since I started my journey toward resolving my own issues, and everyone is so distant from everyone else. Community doesn't know about other parts of it, there isn't much in the way of serious connectivity save for some of the larger sites. That's kinda sad. Why, because we are many, and no woman or man is an island, yet that's what the world tries to make us feel like.
Me, I'm a Reiki Master/Teacher, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Published Photographer, Writer, and an Aunt who loves all her nieces and nephews equally... Though to be honest my namesake Sam has an extra little place in my heart, I mean he was after all named after his Aunt Samantha. Frankly, it's so very cool!
So, anyway, that's the nickle tour...

Oh, yeah, and the Greeneyed Mountain Girl part?
Well I have greeneyes, love mountains of any kind, but especially the Rockies, and well, last but no least, I'm a girl. So there you have it!
I'm living in the great Cincinnati area of Ohio right now, but my heart belongs to the Rocky Mountains outside of Denver. One of these day's I'll get back home to Denver, for now however I'm enjoying the river, and hanging out with friends and family. My namesake lives nearby, so I'm really enjoying watching him grow. He's just the coolest little guy in the world!
