Spend the day with sister

[Glenda58]

I'm having a garage sale and my sister is helping me set it up. But I told her Glenda was going to be there all day. She said whatever makes you happy. So, we were out in the garage all day setting up tables when my neighbor came over with more tables. And he meets Glenda for the first time.

We went out to lunch and some shopping for things the sale. Later after she went home I told my puppy out for a walk in the neighborhood for the first time as Glenda. I saw some people said hi. No one pointed fingers at me.

All in all I had a great day. Plan on doing it tomorrow.

Good for you Glenda! You proved it can be done with no issues at all, I am very happy for you!

[kimdl93]

Good for you, Glenda. I am especially glad that your sister was there to share the day with you.

[docrobbysherry]

U r so brave!:eek:

[Connie D50]

Glenda, sounds like a fantastic day. I hope you have many many more.

[CarlaWestin]

That's how life should really work.
You know, having a yard sale to go out shopping afterward.

:straightface:

Thanks for sharing your good day with us

[Julie Frisky]

Hi Glenda I'm so pleased you had a good day and it's great hearing that you had such a positive experience.

So happy for you; and jealous! Hope it all continues to go well. No one may have pointed fingers, but I wonder what gossip is spreading through your neighborhood. :heehee:

Way to go Glenda!

[Glenda58]

Let them talk. Glenda is out now and not going back. It feels so good not to worry if someone might find out.

[Heather76]

The fact you don't care if the neighbors talk is important to letting them see Glenda. It is the freedom all CDers wish they could enjoy. Personally, at my stage of life I also wouldn't care one bit who saw/met Heather. Unfortunately, my wife would care very much and since I care about her more than life itself, Heather really has to remain under wraps.

Congratulations for owning it in front of your neighbors. You have a wonderful sister.

[Debbie Denier]

What a wonderful way to spend a day Glenda. Even more special to share with your sister.

Glenda, That's great. My sisters are very liberal, but I don't see me ever coming out to them.

[Glenda58]

I wouldn't be doing this if my wife was still living. I loved too much but she is gone, and my therapist told me that I do it now or never with me being 76. And after the neighbors found out it felt like a weight was taken off my chest.
I still need to tell my daughters, but they know I'm crossdresser because of my x wife

[kimdl93]

Your therapist is right. You made concessions in deference to your wife and that was admirable. Now you are on your own, and have to opportunity and obligation make the most/best of your own life going forward. You need to be yourself, and I hope your daughters will fully accept, particularly since they already know.

[SophiaRose]

Kim, your observation about making concessions in deference to our SO probably hits home to so many of us that got married. When I chose to marry it felt like the shutting of the door to freely exploring this side of myself and I did so with a somewhat heavy heart. While it?s been difficult I?ve never regretted that decision however. Being able to find one?s soulmate is a true gift.

Glenda, I feel so sorry for your loss but at the same time feel so happy that you feel free to continue on your journey. I wish you the best.

Glenda might not be 24/7 yet but she's out every day. I don't want to ruin my good cloths digging in the garden or trimming trees. But going grocery shopping walking the dog washing the truck Glenda there.
