Quote from: Pema on July 04, 2025, 10:12:26 PMI love that your neighbor put the effort into making that call. And I'm glad you have a neighbor like that.

Me too!

QuoteThank you so much for sharing this. It gives me a boost hearing about good people like that.

I was hoping it would give someone a boost.

Dear Grace:
It has been some time (over 6 months) since you last posted on your Blog thread and
on the Susan's Place Forum.

Along with your other readers and followers I am eager to see an update from you.
I trust that you are OK, staying healthy, and staying safe. 

Only if you feel comfortable sharing, please give us an update on your Beth
I am hoping that she has not had post surgery issues.

Coming your way tomorrow, Saturday, January 24th - your Birthday - your special day.

Hopefully you have fun plans for celebrating another milestone in your life.

                  H A P P Y  B I R T H D A Y
                                             

                                                   

Be certain to look at your profile on your Birthday to find a special gift.

Many HUGS, and best wishes...

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I haven't read your entire blog yet but whatbi read is great.
I hope my wife will be as accepting as you. She has been so good to me so far. I don't want to push her away.
She sees me in all my woman's clothing and rolls with it.
Please stay positive and keep me informed as things progress

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

I have great hopes for our progress here in Uruguay, where we are finding the respect and support that we've been yearning for.

I welcome any communication from you and your wife as you both sort through your own unique questions and concerns, and as you both sort through what is generally shared by everyone here at Susan's.

I understand your hesitancy to blog. Of course it's hard to start, but as far as I've seen, everyone here gets great feedback and appreciation when they share what they're learning, discovering, exploring, considering, struggling with...

We greatly appreciate all of the leaders whom we have met here at Susan's. You all make this challenging experience so much smoother.

Thanks again and again for being here and sharing your perspective. We're eager to reciprocate with support and enthusiasm.

Dear Moonflower and Grace:

All of us on Susan's Place and the Forum very much appreciate your presence and
activity as you share your postings, comments and thoughts, and life experiences.

I am very pleased that even after you relocated from the USA to Uruguay that you have
maintained your frequent involvement on the Forum.... and here on the Forum we have
many trans spouses and partners that are looking at and reading your life examples
of your successes in your relationship.
You have been a great encouragement to many of our members and guests.

I just did a quick check... the distance from the middle of the USA to Uruguay is roughly
comparable to the distance of Alaska to the middle of the USA ...so I consider that I also
relocated to a new and different land, although your climate and the climate where I live
are the "polar" opposite in seasons and temperatures, etc.

Many HUGS and my best wishes to you, and please continue sharing here on the Forum.
              ❤️
