Cindy, you got me LOL'in on that.  But at the same time I do wish you the best on your surgery recovery - that does not sound easy (because it isn't).

Rachel, here is a big hug, you need that.  And your mom is awesome.  You have inspired so many others, I hope we can return the favor. 

Dawn, Laurie is right - time with your granddaughter is so precious. 

And Sara!!!   Heck yeah you can pull that off!  We all know it, zero doubt.  The most difficult part I think is convincing you what you really can do.   ;)

That's my girl :)... I KNOW you can pull this off!!!! :)!!!!!!

Let go of the things that no longer serve you... Let go of the pretense of the false persona, it is not you... Let go of the armor that you have worn for a lifetime, to serve the expectations of others and, to protect the woman inside... She needs protection no longer.... She is tired of hiding and more courageous than you know... Let her prove that to you....Let her step out of the dark and feel the light upon her face.... amg🌸

Sara,
   This is one of those positive things you ca do for yourself. Golly gee girl, and you are a girl, of course you can pull this off. I told you before you do not look bad! With a little makeup I'll bet you are a knockout. Do we get to see the finished product? Just sit back and enjoy the feeling and I hope you are taking mental notes so you can do it for yourself.
  I would love to see the results Sara as would everyone here.

Hugs,
   Laurie

Thanks Vicki, I have been really struggling this past month, I don't let on. But it's getting me down.
I haven't talked to my dad in 8 months, and we used to talk everyday.
It's really hard.
Hearing mam really take my side, and calling me by my name like that has lifted my spirits today :)

I am so happy for you that you Mum has come round, It is a very validating experience...Glad you are feeling better.

Hugs

Liz

Sorry to hear about your parents Rachel, it might take a little time but hopefully your mother will give your father a good stern talking to & he WILL see sense.

Went grocery shopping with my friends, but since it was out of town, I could go as me! This was actually my first time shopping as Sarah. I think I got an odd stare or two, but no problems. In fact, a handsome young man who worked there smiled at us & asked 'How are you ladies today?'  :D :D

I was at the hairdressers having my hair washed as I can no longer raise my arms above my chest (post my neck surgery) and I was telling the girl of my struggles in fastening my bra, suddenly I had three other women chirping in about difficulties and solutions. There are some way creative ways of fastening bras!!
Personally I thought that the three man approach was my favourite, now I have to find three men.  >:-)

That's just one match away for you.  :laugh:

Hugs, Devlyn

Went to a party tonight.  The attendance was 28 gay men, 1 cis woman and me.  The instant I walked in the cis woman, who I didn't know, kept looking over at me.  Eventually we started up a conversation and all evening she was basically hitting on my.  If it wasn't for her over-bearing (she kept rolling her eyes at him) 6 foot plus 230 pound boy friend ..... hey, it give me hope that there is a chance for a relationship going forward with someone.
