Great to hear you both (all three of us) had an enjoyable night😎 My nails are my current side project. I found that the fake ones beat the heck out of my real nails, the glue, taking them off, drying them out, etc., and decided I didn't really like the look that much anyway, and took too much time, so about a week ago I started my own nail rehab! Instant cuticle remover, to rehab my cuticles, Nail Rehab X which coats my nails to strengthen and nourish them, and Maximum Growth, a clear coating which hardens them to prevent them from breaking. All made by "Sally Hansen". I can already see the difference and some growth and last night was able to trim, file, buff, and recoated them. I do them every day and I keep it on 24/7, 🙋‍♀️ Hey, maybe Monday, a professional manicure? Maybe Sephora visit, too? This new girl's just gonna have fun! Jess

Aw Christy Thank you so much. 😙 Being passable was not the aim last night, being free was, which is why I hadn't bothered with foundation - I was just practising, though if I can one day get to a point where I could pass without all the makeup I would be delighted! but I will definitely take the compliment! 😊😊😊 Loved your PI story - I've always enjoyed mystery novels and thrillers, did you ever find the pencil thief? I had a very relaxed evening and even managed to get back to sleep after waking up early today so I am still in my girly pj's only just sat with my morning coffee and genuinely beaming. I had to give myself a mental note to remove the nail varnish before I go out though (and some eyeliner I seemed to have missed last night that stuff is tough to get on well and tougher to take off properly it is so close to the lashes) - blue is not a subtle or manly colour for nails! I know that Amazon UK has recently started a wardrobe type service like that and my ex used to use a catalogue that did something similar - try before you buy, if you know your measurements then go for it. I am fortunate that other than my shoulders a lot of my features are smaller and more feminine anyway - my hands and feet are small for a mans and my jaw is not different from my sisters. I always suited feminine jewellery more than the chunkier male jewellery which was why I just didn't wear any. Anyway thank you girls for making me smile.

Dear Tilly, Strongly recommend you wash your underarms before going to bed, in order to give your underarms a chance to rest. If you shave, this is when you want to do it, to give your underarms a chance to heal from any small cuts caused by shaving. Yours truly, Monica

I am glad thank you for your kindness! I was just being honest with myself and it brought back a memory so I thought I would share. We have recently had temps of 18.c (64.5 f?) - highest for February in centuries but of course global warming is a myth so its just a fluke we should be grateful for. I know I can wear ladies jeans and look okay, but while they are cut differently they are still jeans and I have worn them for years, what I look forward to is getting some new tops to go with them. I always admired girls that could pull off wearing daisy dukes at the seaside in more ways than one - but the only time I have seen any of my female friends wear shorts is to play sports, and even then most of them prefer leggings and a loose top. I will wish you good luck on your spring mission - do not be too self critical - going shopping in that frame of mind stops you from ever finding something you like, but if you do find some please let us in on the secret! 💛

Dee, I didn't know whether to react with a like or a Haha; wanted to do both!💜😁 Gosh, I like your sense of humor and your outlook; don't ever loose it! But, the outfit in your photo does lookgreat on you and very comfortable, too. I too, prefer skirts or dresses over jeans mostly for the feminine feel, but I have been going out more lately in jeans and slacks because of this frigid cold (avg. temp for 2 months now has been single digits!😝) I'm getting used to them and starting to like them more, but shorts fit me terribly, have not found a pair that even comes close to either a good fit or a good look👀. My butt and hips are way to small and my upper thighs to skinny. That's gonna have to be my mission, though come spring, to find some good summer shorts! Jess

As for the deodorant, I know what you mean, I have never liked wearing deodorant until I just recently picked up some Dove. Now I put it on before work, reapply when I get home and before bed...I know it's supposed to last twelve hours, but I like how I smell, especially when it is fresh. For the video, I totally get it. I am tired of trying to be macho to fit in. Love you all, Tilly
