I love white dresses, for the first time in my life I found a white dress that I like, and then I tried on the alternative and it was even better, I now have two white summer dresses and a pair of Nine West white leather pumps to match

$3 allowed me to play hero of the day   

The apt. manager had bought a nice pair hanging flower baskets for the entrance of the apt. complex, but unfortunately someone had stolen one of the eye hook and chain assemblies that had been there for quite some years and she wasn't able to hang them up proper and thus they sat on the ground    She was rather depressed about it

Simple solution, Invest in a new eye hook and chain and hang them up    Problem solved

Making breakfast for my mom and dad this morning.

One of my staff brought her 5 year old in after school. I had this amazing little girl run into my office screaming 'Cindy'. But she quickly decided the caramel slice I had for her was more fun! Ah the fickleness of the young

Woke up after having spent over 4 hours last night with the news crew documenting my transition. I think I was on camera being interviewed for over 2 hours. We covered a large number of topics and my girlfriend was also interviewed with me for about 20 minutes.  I'm happy that it went very well and I am looking foward to seeing the final product.

Stopped off at my moms yesterday. Figured it was time to come out as who I really am. I was glad my dad wasn't there as I'm not sure I could deal with him. Anyway, thank god for Caitlyn Jenner. Makes for easier shorthand. So she took it pretty well. No rejection. Then my dad showed up. I told her to explain as best she could and then I left. Mixed emotions but mostly good.

Lol it is good to be able to post in the happy thread for once, even if the reason is small 

Went to buy a new ink cartridge for the printer.  A gentleman in from of me in the check out line felt like had had taken too much time there.  He Turned back to me and said sorry for taking so long ma'm.  I didn't think that I was passing well. It's such a thrill when you get recognized for who you are!

Back when I was still working as a mechanic it was an unwritten rule that you didn't touch another mechanic's tools without asking first.  And if you did borrow a tool you'd better bring it back as soon as you finished with it or else.  I owned a lot of Snap-On tools back then along with other quality makes so I was very fussy about who I would allow to borrow tools from me.

This dealer my boss kicked out would not warranty tools not purchased from him.I handed him a ratchet that was slipping owned by a friend of mine,threw it back to me and said not purchased from me.I broke about 5 sockets one day and said he would not warrany them,said I was too hard on them.I used them on a hand ratchet.That is when I stopped buying from him.

Off on vacation till the 6th of next month, not a lot of time but I need it

My mother said "Damn son!" in response to something I said instead of "Damn girl!", gender euphoria achieved.

There might be some symbolism in this.  I figured it might be related to my transition, lol.
