Happy Labor Day! Where in the world did summer go? Geesh......it's so true what momma said about time flying when you're, *choke* older.....

Hope everyone is relaxing......

Melancholy usually sets in for me this time of year, i have some real transitioning to do, most especially with my upcoming surgery this Friday. Hoping to not get mired down in self loathing, but seeing it as a time to redefine me, nothing major, but I have some "weeding out" to do, possibly a career change that will be dictated by my health and rehab of a new joint.
I question myself, my ability to be relationship material after being rather burned this last time, I know I'm still that invisible lesbian to most that I come in contact with....now I will appear "older" I'm afraid.....

ACK, I gotta get off THAT train....

Reunion bound folk, be safe, and have a fabulous time

Ok, back to Happy Labor day and last (unofficial) day of summertime fun!!

Good afternoon and Happy Labor Day. Just in from mowing the backyard and thought I would pop in and say hi

Lipsticklola, I hope everything goes well with surgery!

Ruthie! feel better quickly!

Be safe on the road Morningstar and I hope you make it to the reunion and have a great time.

Several folks I haven't met yet, Bevidotcom, Glenn, Jaques, GrahamsGirl, ferret, SaltyButch and others that I may have missed. Look forward to seeing more posts from you all and those peeking in at times.

Have a great rest of the day and coming week!

LipstickLola,
I can so relate to what you've written. I try every day to stay positive and know that I am lovable and desirable. Not always easy but when I don't believe it myself, I pretend that I do until I do. May sound crazy but it works for me when I need it to.
xo,

Well, I suppose there are a few of us that need to work on that! Glad I'm not alone

. Im having hip replacement at a fairly young age, it feels very scary to think that that will have a bearing on whether or not anyone will ever want me...how I'll be "seen", if that makes sense. Always been a go getter and have been seriously side lined for the past year+, so I definitely will have some work to do!
Right now my dryer is buzzing....downstairs, omg

morningstar55 · 09-04-2012, 02:00 PM

Well sitting here...... waiting to get truck loaded..... thn its off to the Texas hot lands

morningstar55 · 09-04-2012, 04:10 PM

Ilove this song ......

When things go wrong or not how I'd like them to do, my first instinct is to wonder what in the hell is wrong with me. I feel so messed up in so many ways; defective, almost. It makes me wonder why I even bother with wanting a relationship, but yet, I keep waiting for it.

Been there, done that. Not a good feeling. I was told when you stop looking your love will find you. So, I stopped looking and love found me. That was almost 13 years ago. Love will find you as well.

ruthie14 · 09-04-2012, 07:25 PM

TopDog is a bar that my friends and I go to a lot!! This is only 5 minutes or so from my home. There were also several sightings in my town (I didn't see it of course). I live in NJ..... not Kansas! Where is Toto??
