Well done dear I feel exhausted just reading!!!

QuoteThose are the days I will try to remember.

^Wise.^

I have a half-friend who still bemoans her long-a mouldering mother. Her equally a mouldering resentments have half-buried her.

A Costco? Whoa. I'm in the lower 48 and we don't have one of those. Impressive. Your road trip/vacay/fill-the-SUV trip sounds fun and thanks for taking us along with your photos.

I'm glad you added Takeabreakday to the rotation, making it an eight-day week.

Did the cluster headache wallop you?

You are so wise and have invested so much energy in your social transition and it has clearly been a resounding success that I'm reluctant to tweak your approach, but five or ten years down the road, you might want to tighten your expectations around your name and pronouns.

For me, to spend 99% of my life in the company of local friends and strangers who see me as female and then to connect with old friends and family who keep reminding me with the wrong pronouns that they remember me as male, well, it's a jolt every time because they've stayed behind. They don't see me, they don't know me, and we all want to be seen.

Hi Jessica-- I am trying to catch up a little and see the updates about your Dad. I am saddened, altho relieved that you seem to have the situation under as much control as is possible.

Count me in the never-quite-reconciled with dad club. He passed a decade ago now, well before me being me. We tried to get to something approaching detente. We never got there.

Sunday I ate three pork egg rolls and some fried rice.

Saturday I ate several oranges and a banana.

Happy birthday to each of you!
