As a few of you know, I was in a car accident in January and broke my right leg just below the knee. Two surgeries later, I am slowly recovering but it has thrown all hopes of dressing fully into a very deep pit. Even though I am at home alone most days, I can't get to my female things at this time, nor can I wear hosiery or heels. I did have a few pairs of panties, one pair of tights, a dress, and earrings in my bedroom closet and drawers. However, my unsupportive wife found some of the panties and tights in the drawer and threw them out. No discussion about it as of yet. The pink fog rolled in during February and I ordered some new clothes that arrived this week.
So this morning, after my wife left for work, I put on panties, a new hot pink bodysuit, and medium sized clip hoop earrings. Then my stretchy sweatpants over the leg brace. So now I'm sitting with my work laptop, and I feel happy and sad at the same time. Happy to be wearing feminine clothes, but sad that I can't complete the look with a bra, forms, padding, skinny jeans, heeled booties, wig, and makeup. A small step for now, but I am determined to get back to the me I want to be.
Spring is almost here, and summer beyond that, and I have time for a full recovery and to walk again in my heels.
Hugs to you all,
Tina
