The Drought Is Over, And I'm Still Thursty

 

My outfit on Jan 2!


To help you catch up - I was working on the road from October 18 thru January 1. Due to the circumstances of the job, Julie stayed at home for that time. It was he longest "forced pause" I've ever experienced, and after 2 weeks I started feeling it. I got home on New Years Day, and wasted little time in getting my silks and satins out of storage.

I also got to work planning a Sister Friends gathering. (Footnote - the name Sister Friends was coined for our group many years ago. Since then, the membership has grown and changed)  The appointed day for our Brunch Reunion was approaching, so I got to the task at hand - selecting an outfit.

This is usually us - and I am always the one on the right!

So I started going through the closet to pick out my wardrobe. Feminine but not too fancy, girly but not to frilly, something I haven't been able to wear for the past 3 months.

This is what I went with

Three of us carpooled to the restaurant, meeting the newest Sister Friend there - Jeremy. (He was thrilled to be counted among the Sisters!) 

Sarah, Jeremy, Moi, and Christy

The restaurant was still Christmas-y, so we took full advantage. The food was good, the conversation was GREAT, and the time spent Out and About was . . . . emotional. (I almost cried a few times). I hadn't realized just how much I had missed my Julie Time - and the SF's were supportive. Our discussions were uplifting, encouraging, and FUNNY! (after she snapped this photo, Sarah commented that my boobs were looking good - I couldn't disagree!)

 Here's to Friends - to self expression - and to being bolder in who I am and in sharing it with the world, one on one or in large groups.

Stay Safe And Pretty, Sweeties.

National Girls Night Out - A Pictoral Essay

Image
 Well, not ENTIRELY pictoral . . .  It was a Tuesday night, and I was alone - so maybe more appropriately called A Girl's Night Out.  But I made the most of it. I walked around downtown, visited a few of our classier hotels, but didn't meet anyone who offered to buy me a drink. (sigh) I felt beautiful, and had to assume it was true since no one complimented me, or even spoke to me. Oh well, maybe NEXT year. Stay Safe And Pretty, Sweeties.

Who Was That Lady?

Image
For those of you still using Facebook, you know it can be a rather interesting forum. Questions get posed, statements made, arguments inflamed. Recently I posted one of my "I Love Dressing" Memes that stated, "I'm a straight male. I just have a feminine side, and I'm really comfortable with that". A friend asked me to elaborate on that statement, so I composed this response to him. I hope this not only informs but possibly assists someone who may be going through a similar journey. " As you pointed out, I said I identify as a Hetero Male To Female Crossdresser. By this, I mean I am a genetic male, attracted to genetic females. You asked if I was also attracted to trans women - that gets difficult to reply to. I am married and faithful, so I wouldn't have sexual relations with anyone other than my Darling Wife. I have never found myself (knowingly) attracted to a trans woman. However, I do appreciate the female form and figure. As I tell people to w...

At Long Last Loved Getting Out

Image
They say "Good Things Come To Those Who Wait". Well, I waited, and it was . . . . pretty good. It would have been better if I had someone to share it with, but I got out and that's the important thing. Getting the house to myself is always the hardest part, and that I did. Which allowed me to get ready at my leisure.  I got home from work at 5 and started the Julie-fication Process. The Outfit Of The Evening I ultimately changed shoes - and hair - before going out.  As we are now a 1 car household I was relegated to the bus and walking. Not that I don't like those transportation methods, but it does limit my options for where to go. Just another lady on the bus My neighbor - a friend but very conservative - was not at home, so walking out the front door wasn't a problem. To the bus stop, then to one of our newer shopping areas - Kendall Yards. I wasn't sure what time places closed there on a Thursday, but I took my chances. Turns out most of the shops closed a...
