Title: Exciting happenings - Hope I can follow through!
Post by: coral on March 03, 2026, 05:21:07 PM
Lots of exciting things happening soon:

*  I have been visiting couple times a week with a local woman.  We get along great!  She usually comes to my house.  I think because her husband and grown kids are often at her house.  So, we can more freely have good woman to woman discussions.

*   Had a new 'Workstation' kitchen sink installed yesterday. It's not a lot larger than the old one but has many new usable features.

*  In process of changing therapists.  Really like the one I've been with for a couple years, and she appears to like working with me.  But it is time to get a new perspective.  I have been doing video meetings.  Will no doubt continue doing video with new therapist. However, I am excited because she also does in-person office meetings.  I dress for video meetings and even give my therapist a 'fashion show' to start our meetings. In office meetings with new therapist will require a one-hour drive to her office where I will be dressed as my true self the entire time.  Hope I can do it!!!

This is an excited Coral wishing exciting times for all!

Good luck!

I have always preferred in-person meetings, but I'm not willing to drive an hour each way for a one-hour chat. Video works just fine for that.

Hi Coral

Thank you for sharing your story it was appreciated and I hope your new therapist is of help for you in your journey.  In terms of doctor visits, I'm of the opinion of face to face, however if its just for a prescription refill then a video or phone call 'visit' will suffice.

Take care and all the best for the future.

Best Wishes Always
