Another Quick Hello

[Rikki]

Hi Everybody!

Hope you're all enjoying this wonderful winter this year. Snow, snow and more snow it seems.

It seems like forever since I've really been able to be en femme to the max. I miss that feeling and comfort found in be frilled and poufed-up in the whole get up. Maybe soon, for a few hours.

Somethings the thought of purging my whole wardrobe occurs to me. Getting every trace of Rikki out of the house before that eventful day when I don't wake up and the family discovers that their macho-man had an alter ego. But then that faint hope that I will again have a day or so to prance about in heels, hose, a dress and pearls will again return.

Anyway, enough of that. Please let me know that you're all OK and hanging on in this age of discrimination against anyone who "ain't normal." Miss you all.

Rikki

DON'T purge! Once you have moved on, you're being you will just be something people will talk about regardless. People will find something about anyone to complain about and to love.

In the meantime, glad to hear you're alive. In response to your request... This old fart is plodding long. Just got done with Geothermal system and water heater issues. Not sure one of the new thermostats is okay though; will need to give it a few days. I only have three more surgeries planned for this year. My cataracts has gotten bad enough I need them fixed and my right shoulder surgery managed to pinch a nerve. Well maybe it's the shoulder but then again, it could be my neck. Ro is doing okay, she hasn't gotten herself as beat up as I am. Life at this end of town is okay.

I had cataract surgery in December. I got the fancy expensive lenses. I can see fine about 90 % of the time but still need glasses to read sometimes. At night, I see halos around bright lights. Overall, I am very pleased with the outcome but I would probably opt for a more basic lens.

Davita,
Had my cataracts taken care of a while ago. What a change it made in my vision.

Don't worry, I won't junk the petticoat collection just yet. In fact tonight I am enjoying an evening fully femmed up. Wifey is out of town toddler sitting the grandkids overnight. So I'm fully floufed up and ready to twirl my heart out.

Fortunatly winter has given forth to spring and now Summer!

I too would counil against purging. . It is a strange cycle we go thorugh. I honestly remember doing once about the time I was 18 or so. For some reason, I felt it necessary to spread the undergarments on a stand of trees near where some friends lived.

I certainly never admitted it, but in hindsight it was probably clear to all the friends (16 to 18) who was actually responsible.

But since all of my wives never had a problem with my crossdressing, I never purged again. As I became a young man, I originally kept my items locked in a wooden box under my bed. ( This about highschool) And by now, the parents were respecting my privacy and never demanded I open the box. I guess they probably knew, and understood there was little they could do about it. And given that m sex life (or lack of it) was otherwise normal, they never made any issue of it.

Years later, I did confess to my father, and he indicated that my mother had said somthing about it. (she had died in '87 of a ruptured anyurism. and that was the end of it.

I suspect that we purge at some point when we try to distance ourself from our "abnormal crossdressing" bit the urge returns again and the cycle starts over. If one can accept that the behavior of crossdressing will be a lifelong affliction and that is is really harmless, it goes a long way in reducing the anxiety about the matter.
