Welcome back my beautiful friend!

I write a lot. I say a lot of things when doing so. I always speak from personal experience. I get out frequently. I actually got out (in public) 107 times in COVID2020.

Anytime I write...

This article is really intended for those out there who visit our site, wondering if they are alone with their feelings.

Trust me, you are not, not even close.

I wrote the following essay for...

In a millisecond! Absolutely!

I am completely comfortable in either my male skin or my female skin, but doing so would make life much, much simpler. It's complicated enough. That said, I love...

I think most would agree, we act differently when presenting as female than when doing so as a male. Not everyone, but most.

That said, I would tell anyone with whom I am interacting with when...

It never, ever, ever goes away. I am sure many gave you various reasons for it, but in it's simplest form, it makes us happy. And if you could strip away societal norms, it would make many more...

Make sure the mask is a cute one! You will get complements on it if it is. Masks just add another layer of confidence because if done right, it does bury many of our natural tells. Welcome back!

Thank you all for the wonderful comments! It's really as simple as walking out the door.

Get out there girls!!

I wrote the following outing story, which is running on my blog today.

I received tremendous feedback so I thought I would share if you anyone were interested:

For many of us, there is quite a bit of work that goes into making the presentation that we wish. Therefore, spending that much time simply to stay home makes no sense. That said, it doesn't mean...

I've gotten two speeding tickets dressed (six years apart). I fought the second one with two court appearances and I dressed for those as well (I won). A complete nonissue. We worry way more than...

I am guessing here that you are still young (under 50).

I can only speak from significant personal experience. I am old, so I passed the threshold where I stopped worrying about what the general...

Krisi, we'll agree to disagree. Millions out of work, industries decimated, loved ones gone from the virus and no vaccine will fix that.

My comments were specific to being an out and about...

Krisi, the entire arts community country wide is principally closed. Community theaters, most movie theaters, art museums, while open are severely restricted. Our Playhouse Square, the second...

Finding some one you can depend upon all the time, who shares our interests is often like finding a unicorn. I have some friends, but they all have their own circumstances, which all factors into...

Again, you have to be of a certain age to enjoy this!!

Sorry to be a downer, but the pandemic has been the worst thing that could happen to me as a CD. I went out all the time. Now, most things are either closed or not the same as they used to be. ...

Your hubby is a bright person! I built an extensive network of volunteering opportunities, from community theaters, art museums and high end charity events. But, as it has done with everything,...

Without mirrors or cameras would one go to the gym? Comb their hair? Shave? Wear something other than sweats?

Part of doing what we do is working at our craft, honing our look. Sure, there is...

The big winner here? Me! Because I get the privilege of presenting Steph's work.

She's there every Saturday.

A lovely story, well told!

Our very own Stephanie Julianna, who also writes for my blog, has run a few nostalgic posts the past few Saturdays.

For some of the ladies here of a certain age, you may enjoy them.
