may i inquire as to where the search bar went??

I was expecting today to be tough but it's not been too bad. Registering Mum's death was straightforward enough, the finality of that act is only just sinking in.

But that has allowed us to sort out her finances, the banks have been really helpful, even the phone company sorted things in just a few minutes.

I spent a couple of hours last night writing my contribution to Thursday's service - that brought the tears back big style. I'm not up to reading it myself, I'm not a masochist, but I feel better that I'm making a contribution.

I followed the Amazon.com link and I think I lost the BC referral (tag=dopplerpress-20 in the URL) as soon as I left the "Books" section of Amazon. It stayed missing if I clicked "Best Sellers" and then clicked "Books" again. Does that mean that BC gets no commission if I search out a teapot (for instance) even though I entered via the link from BC?

Hey folks

As you might imagine things are a bit weird here in Gods Own atm, in an attempt at some normality I've posted you a new Gaby chapter today.

It is false dawn, thirty minutes before the sun begins to lighten the world. In twenty minutes the true dawn will begin which is ten minutes before the tip of the sun touches the edge of the horizon.

I am getting very frustrated at the lack of spell checking on this site, (and others).
Do people not proof read and spell check before posting?

Lately in many of the stories I read I see the wrong word used or major spelling errors.
Now I am aware that not all people were brought up using the English language. But why not have a native English speaker go over the stories before submission?

I seldom see punctuation errors, which is good.

My mum has just collapsed and is heading to hospital - it's very serious. Don't know what's going to happen, I could be absent for some time with associated lack of posting.

First up today, my thoughts are with all those affected by London's very own, real life Towering Inferno - 2017 is not turning out to be a great year for this country.

Of new Gaby!

Yes, I've now completed Gaby - Express so part 4 will be out tomorrow! The full, single volume should follow midweek.

So look out if you are a Gaby fan.

Until tomorrow

Breast Massage = Growth

We had a discussion lately whether breast massage will make them bigger. I’m living proof it works and I wish I wasn’t. The old adage “be careful what you wish for” bit me in the posterior.

By age six I was driving tractors by myself. The car or pickup my brother and I worked as a team. One of us stood in the seat and steered and shifted (stick shift) The other sat on the floorboard working the clutch, brakes, and gas peddle.

My son sent this to me this evening. I was hesitant to post this, but as it made me smile and even laugh a little on a really bad day I thought I would share it with others.

To those who might not agree with the political sentiment, I hope that you can at least see the humor in it.

It seems like every day I wake up and look outside the sky is grey and rain is falling. I remember when I used to love to walk in the rain, back when my life was simpler. It was a good way to be alone - no one bothered me and no one could see my tears.

Now I can't even cry in the shower without someone saying something.....

Is Bev's Balcony gone? I saw a picture on FB that looked like one of Rebecca De mere's (spelling?) and I wanted to look, but now I don't have anyplace to check.

Seems at about 5 PM CDT there was a two part strike in the heart of London - the Tower Bridge and a nearby pub district. People in the pubs were attacked by knife-wielding people. On the Tower Bridge a van veered off the road and struck some pedestrians then several people jumped out if the van and attacked people with knives. Further details will surely follow, but know that we Americans stand with our English cousins in this time of terrible tragedy.

What is the difference in the terms "Boi" and "Gurl"?

What is the difference in the terms "Sissy" and "Nancy-Boy"?

Sometimes it's difficult to tell truth from fiction at the end of Congress Avenue in Austin, but the 2017 legislature ended without passing a bathroom bill.

Russian Documentary about transgender and transvestite women. One of the best responses to WHY? I have ever heard. "that it was just nature's mistake, and an XY set of chromosomes came with a woman's soul"

approx 30 min long

Transgender model prepares for the sex-change surgery. TransReality Ep 3

I have changed computers and the OS from XP to Win 7 and every time I take any action I am logged out and have to log back in or even if I do nothing. Is there something I'm missing as my last upgrade was about 5 years ago but that was from another XP machine.

I appreciate any help.

Well, I've got to give Kaiser top marks again. A while back, I decided I'd like to explore a transition of sorts. While I'm sure I'll never seek bottom surgery, since I've retired, I have no need to wear men's clothes again. So in anticipation of that, I wanted to see just what kind of development I could induce on my chest. To that end, I asked my PCP (primary care physician) for an estrogen prescription. She referred me to the "Gender Pathways" clinic. After an interview with that doctor in charge of the and reviewing the permission documentation I got that prescription.

I have been fighting depression for weeks now - just the usual things, still not settled on a new job (the problem with being senior management is that finding an appropriate position takes time - especially as this is the first time I have interviewed since transitioning), and of course there is the never ending issues with family. I'm not saying that my spouse and children are not supportive - they have in fact been very supportive this past year, but life for them has been impacted by my transition. And of course, what hurts them hurts me - deeply.

Here's a nicely crafted trans teen romance recently published on Kindle.

The play “As One” is a winning coming-of-age story that is about a transgendered person

“The world clearly needs a readily accessible transgender opera with a warm heart” – LA Times

The specific aspect of sexuality is, surprisingly, almost incidental. No one grows up easily. Every first date is a trial. We all have issues with family. The point of “As One” is that we all are one.

Yep, I've been writing like a top and the next raft of Gaby - Express is a couple of thousand words from completion!

It really is an action packed run of events, both on the bike and off.

So, fingers crossed, it'll be available from tomorrow.

In other news - it's shaping up to be a typical May here weatherwise - I just hope that it stays fair when I go to Brecon for a few days this week - nothing worse than wet Wales!
