I posted about finally accepting crossdressing and not being afraid for my wife to know when I want to. We had a really serious talk about it on a Sunday and we opened up a really good path of communication about what each of us felt and how we percieved the other felt. Out of it I promised not to hide or deny the desire to dress when I felt it. Before I would underdress or dress when she was gone without saying anything. I did not deny or cover up (usually) but I didn't see the need (or I was afraid) to acknowledge when I did it. I swore to myself that I would not fear this any longer. I had been feeling the need for a little girl time for a few days but we had been busy with other things and I hadn't taken the time. Anyways,the next morning when I got up she was up before me and already making coffee. I went to the room where all my clothes are kept (male and female, our house suffers from lack of closet space) and I thought "might as well jump in and see where this goes." I put on my favorite bra and panty set, pulled on a pair of pantyhose and proceded downstairs to get worky clothes out of the wash. She looked at me with a little smile and I said "I promised to not hide from you anymore." We talked about the day a bit and I asked if she might feel like going shopping with me after our farm duties were done. I said I felt like getting "the girl" some things. She said sure, after we get some work done. We went in and stopped for a latte and went to Sally Beauty Supply as I needed a wig head and wanted some fingernails. We had a nice time there looking over and picking things and we both got some goodies. We went to the local Gabriel Bros. next browsing the new inventory (they are a buyout and surplus store and get some really nice high end clothing cheap and they get new stuff every week. We ended up shopping for dresses and shoes. She helped me with suggestions about styles and colors which would look good on me and we had a really fun time together. I ended up with two new dresses and a pair of dressy sandals and she got some more summer clothing as we are getting ready to go south on vacation. She jokingly (I thought) said "Do you want a swimsuit ? We're going to the beach. Lady Di (her name for me) could get out and walk the beach in the evening." I said no, I don't think I can do that yet. That, of course, will lead to another thread. We got home and put our finds in our rooms and finished the day's chores. (to be continued)
