New begining

[michelleliz]

Hi every one
A new year is just around the corner and I thought I would start a thread. I thought it was time I
got more active rather then just set back and listen to all of you.
Question.
Is any one doing a day to day journal on How they feel and what they do as the other Sex ( Man or Women)
I am retiring some time after the first of the year and will spend my time female 24/7.
I know emotions change for me so often It might give me some insight on how I really feel about different things.
I will be trying to get some Pictures on here. If I can figure out how to do it. And I am interested I making Friends. I have heard it said " you have to be a friend to make one"
Any comments?

That all sounds good Michelle. I havn't been keeping a journal, but that sounds like a great idea. As long as you can remember to add an entry at least every day, kinda like a diary.
I retired about 5 years ago. It took some getting used to though, Finished some projects that I never had time to finish before. Trying to stay as busy as I was used to being is not that easy, mostly I don't have the energy that I used to have. Things still get done, they just take longer. And I got plenty of time to do just about anything I want and set my own scheduals too.
I hope your new year will be as bright as the summer sun rising uppon the ocean on a clear day.

You know! It's funny you bring that subject up. I've been meaning to do just that very thing. Trouble is I don't usually have the time. Suppose if I don't atleast start, I'll never get to it. Thanks for the reminder.

Having retired earlier this month, I'm planning on doing the same thing Hon. In fact I have already started. My purpose is to see if I want to do it full time.The way I see it, the real test will be the day in and day out hum drum stuff with doing housework, errands and all of the other domestic chores and just basically being myself. The "glitter" part(getting dressed up, makeup, etc.) is easy but really living it? Well, I'm going to find out. The big difference for me is I won't be Ericka/Rich, just Ericka with no "Rich" to fall back on while I'm doing this experiment. I'm the kind of person who, when I do something, I pretty much do it all the way. Ericka

Actually as a GG I occasionally go back and reread the posts I have made from the start of finding out my partner is a cdr and I find that I pretty much put down on the forums how I was feeling at the time - so if you like it's an internet diary of the way I am feeling on a day to day basis - find I now question less - or perhaps with less anxiety, read more, answer the few I feel qualified to put my worth into and watch my/our life unfold as I look back over my posts.

I agree I try to be the best Michelle I can be. I spent the day out shopping. Went to the god will got a sweter for $4.50 and a two piect outfit( size $) for $ 8.00. Had a wonderfull time. then went to Burgerkink for lunch. It is so good to be accepted as a women When you go out.
Thanks for your reply you allways give good advise . I like reading your post.

I do keep a journal , but have'nt really made any entries in it for about 2 months , my journal book is soo-cute pink with a princess on it and it even has a lock so I can lock-it , but I live alone so there really is no need !!!!
Going femme 24/7 , thats great I'm happy for ya, still can be a challenge tho, you know how society can be , the journal can be a big help , girls have used journals alot , just one of the many secrets of the GG world.....I wish you luck

[michelleliz]

I usally don,t have any trouble passing. I spent the day today out shopping and ate lunch at Burger king. Had a nice talk with one of the girls that worked there but was on break. I think I was accepted fully as a women. That is such a great feeling

Good idea! I keep a journal when I travel but have not done one at any other time. I'm going out for New Year's so I'll make my first entry January 1, 2007.

[michelleliz]

I think it will help to correct mistakes that I make. I think I will learn a lot about myself

Hello Michelle
So you're going Femmale 24/7? Enjoy and have fun being you. As for a journal, I never took the time to keep one. However, it sounds like a good idea.

So good for you, Michelle!!

I am trying to keep up a Blogger page - paragraph a day sorta thing. (I've been a compulsive writer all my life, so that's no stretch.) This forum is its own (social) journal - very cool for getting the thoughts clear, and the responses & interactions can often be edifying.

Good luck on the 24/7. Bet you'll be having the time of your life !
