Life threw a Tsunami in my path and I'm learning to surf it!

[Iskandra]

Hey girls, it's been a bit over a week since I've caught up with you all and I hope you are all well! I am looking forward to catching up on all the posts I've missed..

Well what a week so far.. Life did not only throw me a curveball, But managed to throw a chaos ball at me too.. :eek:

So, there I was last friday, exactly a week ago, I wake up, have a shower, shave legs and spend a little time deciding what I want to wear..
Black lacy corset with my new dark red stockings, new top, favourite skirt and new kneehigh stiletto boots..

Farted around, did some housework, which is a pain when your long hair always seems to be in the way! :doh: How do you GG's do it?
Then relaxed on the couch watching a movie, Next thing I know I'm snoozing and enjoying some dreamtime..

I semiwake up to a knock on my door and think to myself I know that voice, but voice and knock stops so I drift back to sleep.. ahh there's the dream I was drifting on.. But not much later I get a call from Shalinka (for those that don't know, my gf the love of my life!) "do you know your mums in Victoria?!" (The state we live in, mum lives in NSW about 900ish K's away) "Err no, Where in vic?", yes ok i was still waking up..
So mum turns up out of the blue from an 11 hour drive with a good friend, when I was settled into a weekend of Iskandra.. :eek:
I did manage to delay her till the following morning while I cleaned up a little and closeted all of Iskandra's belongings..

Hi mum, what the h are you doing here? thats a long drive at your age, and I almost went away for the weekend! Why didn't you call?!
We needed a holiday and I wanted to surprise you! (give me a heart attack more likely :heehee:)
Ok cool, it's great to see you mum, so how long are you staying?
10 days.. 10 days?!?! :eek: :eek: Sounds great mum... :facepalm:

This at a time when Shal is trying to accept Iskandra in our lives and we find happy boundaries..

The week goes on, the wig Shal ordered for me arrives, (a more natural brown one than my reddy one.. Wow, it's also way softer!! (love ya babe! :love:)
My breastforms arrive, heart pounding, excited as a kid at xmas I rip open the package... WTF.. There's only one!? :eek: :angry: :cry:

But mum helped clean up the house, brought my grandfathers heirlooms for me, he meant the world to me so every memory is priceless..
We've actually had a good time together, the 4 of us went to the casino yesterday, we had a great time and between us all won about 1500 bucks..
I've ordered some new forms making sure there are 2!!! Shal got the rest of her horse equipment paid off.. New horse being bought tomorrow! 95% sure..

So yes, the parental unit rode in with a tsunami, but girls I am surfing the wave.. Clinging to my board for dear life, but I'm surfing!!
Shal, Iskandra and I are just dying for our privacy back!!

Oh and I just broke the zip on my fav skirt!! grr..

Hope you are all well and looking forward to catching up soon!

Ten days?? The response to that should be: "so what hotel are you staying at?"

btw, hope you sent the one boob back requesting refund or sending you the proper two.

[Iskandra]

I did send them a message stating my dissapointment as one boob is useless to me, and that they should be more specific in their description, which said pretty much nothing, the only 'clue' my gf picked up on was that is was a picture of only one form.. is that descriptive enough? debatable...
I threw the ball/boob in their court and asked if they had a solution that would satisfy both parties without costing me..

On the family side, I could not ask that question, I have a small family and grew up in a way that every member was there for the other always and without fail... Now it's just mum and me left, she has been there (as a single parent) for me all my life, dropping things when i needed her... regardless.. Yes it's awkward with her turning up out of the blue, yes it's hard not having privacy.. But she deserves as good as she gives... When she is gone I will stand alone in this world.. As awkward as this visit is, as much as i needed to vent about it, when the day comes when i know I'll never get another surprise visit from my mum, i'll miss it more than anything and the memory of these days will be prescious..

As for the boob, I'm still waiting a response, and I have ordered a PAIR from another mob.. so at the worst I'll be out of pocket for a boob, but then I may just become the tranny with 3 boobs! rofl..

Ya gotta watch where ya order these thigs from. If you orderd from a site that had post mastectamy forms, often times, breast cancer surviveros only loose 1 breast at a time, so all the need is 1 form.

Very interesting story! I don't know weather to laugh or cry for you!

[Fab Karen]

If it's just your mom then you could solve the problem by telling her about yourself, and just maybe she'd stop dropping by without notice.

ROFLMAO at your post, Iskandra - I love the way you described the events of your "tsunami" as well as that sardonic sense of humour of yours. It also sounds as if you have a wonderful relationship with your mum despite it all, and your deep affection for her comes through loud and clear.

Ever think of "coming clean" with her? Sounds as if the two of you are very close and that she could probably handle it. Anyone who can pay an 11 hour/900+ Km "surprise" visit to her son (daughter? ;)) sounds like quite a trooper whom nothing will faze!
